“Aimee was great! Very responsive, proactive with updates (and lots of pictures), and had a variety of activities for our dog to do at her place. She’s certainly our first choice for a local dog sitter going forward.”
“So happy Onyx stayed with this lovely family. Marissa was warm and inviting. She shared pictures of Onyx with us while he was there. I have no complaints and will definitely use them again! If they are available. ☺️”
“She was fast , fun, and friendly . Took care of my lil Freedom with ease. She sent pictures and updated me throughout the day.! I will be returning back with her. She has another dog and makes sure yours is included with anything she does.”
“Luis has been great with Winnie. She has had 3 accidents in our 2 trips with him and he was very patient and understanding with her and with us. Highly recommend! His Dog Elvis is also a team player and great with other dogs.”
“Destiney is an awesome sitter and took excellent care of Tyson! She provided updates daily and gave him the attention he needs while we were away. Thank you 🙏🏽”
“Laura took excellent care of my elderly dog. I was very pleased with the updates from her and I was so glad he was being so well taken care of. I recommend her to anyone needing a care giver for their dog.”
“Shayne and Jessica were 5 star sitters. This was our first time leaving our dog with sitters for 18 days. He was treated like family and fit in well with their two kids. They communicated well with us while we were gone. They sent us much appreciated pictures and videos on how he was doing. He enjoyed their fenced backyard and enjoyed sunning himself on their deck.”
“I cannot say enough good things about Scott, Heather, & their family! They went above and beyond caring for my dog, Presley. From the start, they made me feel completely at ease — constantly sending texts and pictures so I knew Presley was happy and loved. Scott and his family treated her like their own and made my trip home so stress-free because I knew she was in the best hands. They were incredibly flexible, easy to communicate with, and truly cared about making sure Presley felt comfortable and loved throughout her entire stay. I would 100% book with Scott again anytime I need someone to watch Presley. He’s simply the best!”
“Wally was so happy when I picked him up and I can tell that he thoroughly enjoyed his time with Melissa and Mr. Peanut butter. Melissa is super easy to communicate with and friendly - we will be back!”
“Charity was absolutely wonderful with our dogs! Our pups are high energy and excitable but she was so calm with them and they behaved so well with her! She sent regular updates on how they were doing and I was completely at ease while we were away. The dogs returned to us clean, happy, and healthy which is everything I could ask for! Thank you so much, Charity!”
“Very sweet family that gave special attention to our pup. We received daily updates without asking each day. We plan to use them in the future and would recommend to others!”
“Cooper had a great Christmas with Brittany! He was cuddled and loved on and got plenty of time playing fetch. I got the cutest pictures every day and it made me feel so relieved knowing Cooper was safe an being loved!”
“Kristien and her family looked after Leonard like he was one of the family. He always has such a great time! I really appreciate the communication and pictures throughout his stay.”
“If it weren’t for the patience of Ahmal I wouldn’t have made it to Denver to meet up with my husband and 4 girls. 😂 I have two dogs, one is a chill guy and the other is a ball of anxiety. They settled into a routine and it made me not worry after the first two days. I was sent multiple updates each day with pictures and videos. Plenty of reassurance that my dogs were in good hands.”
“First let me say my review is long overdue. I could not leave a review earlier due to an unexpected medical emergency. However, let me say Hillary & Lucas are GREAT!!! I felt my dog Angel was loved on and cared for. I received messages and pictures. Hillary went above and beyond she even figured out my dog's excessive licking which turned out to be a food allergy. I really appreciate everything they did for my dog. I would not hesitate to leave him with them again.”
“Elayne, Is a great! She loves dogs and is gentle with them. My dog, is afraid of thunder and rain. Elayne took time to soothe her and let us know that she was not doing well. She is the best.”
“Martine & Ronald take such great care of our boys always, I don’t know what we’d do without them! They welcome them into their home as if they were their own pets and are so flexible, loving, and caring. I never once worry about their care when they are staying with this family. Cannot recommend them enough!”

I knew Finley was in great hands the moment I dropped Finley off with Teddy and Melissa. They both immediately sensed his anxiety and got down to his level to ease him! I received consistent updates throughout his stay and picked up one very happy pup ☺️ Teddy and Melissa are incredibly attentive and kind, truly treating these pups like their own ❤️
