“Kelley was amazing. She took care of our two dogs (one was puppy who is very high energy and doesn't give you a moment of peace) and bird for 2 nights. I know the puppy ran her ragged. Loved the pictures we received each day. The house was clean upon our return and the dogs (and bird) were happy and obviously well cared for while we were away. I highly recommend Kelley.”

“Tyler did an excellent job taking care of our 3 dogs' individual need at our home while we were gone on a much needed vacation. He gave medicine to our senior dog who is blind and helped our dogs through their separation anxiety in our absence. He even sent us pics.”


“This was our third time having Rachel in our home. She was on time, as always. Our three girls love to see her drive up, as do we. She is pleasant, courteous, and definitely loves our girls(and they love her). She sends updates and pictures, and always responds to me when I want to check in. If she needs to leave to take care of her own dogs, she lets me know and isn't ever gone long. We have a special needs blind baby, and a hyper-active Border Collie. Rachel is spot on as far as accommodating their needs, as well as being a knowledgeable dog person. Our home is always as we left it when we get back. We will be using her every time we need to leave town in the future. I'd recommend her to anyone, anytime! We feel safe with her being with our babies when we can't be.”

“Jennifer was very kind to watch Mamba with less than a week's notice, which I really appreciated! Mamba also had a last-minute vet visit and Jennifer was still willing to watch her with a cone, and some new medication to administer that I had not planned on. Everything went smoothly! Loved getting pictures as well!”

“Emma was amazing with our two pups and we will be using her again for sure! My dogs were happy and comfortable the entire time. I loved that since my Aussie has some anxiety she was great with both!”

“Jennifer was great with our two little guys. They can be challenging, we have a 3 month old pup and and 2 yr old pit that love to play and need lots of attention and Jennifer handled it like a pro. Very professional, great communication and followed specifics for each of our guys to a T. Would highly recommend and will definitely book with her again next time our little guys need care.”

“My pups loved having Megan visit! Her passion for taking care of animals showed in my pups behavior when I came home. Most importantly she tuckered my hyper dog with lots of play time. She sent lots of pictures and updates. I’m normally picky about who I allow in my home but Megan followed all my requests for entering and leaving my pups for the day. I will gladly have her back to check in on my pups in the future or even over night stays. I trust and would recommend her to anyone.”

“This was my first time using a pet sitter, and I was honestly a little nervous leaving my pet with someone new. But the experience turned out amazing. They were very kind, reliable, and kept me updated with messages and pictures, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. My pet looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. You can tell they genuinely care about animals. I would definitely use them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.”

“Bailey was absolutely fantastic! She came to our rescue at the last minute and took great care of our babies. We were in such a rush, and I don't think I prepared her as well as I should have, but she handled everything like a pro. We truly appreciated her help. Thank you so much, Bailey!”

“Meleah was amazing! She communicated, sent updated and pictures which I loved! She was super sweet and my dogs warmed up to her quick. Especially my girl dog who is a little timed with people but she did amazing! Definitely will book with her again!”


“Angela, is very professional and very good with dogs. I felt totally comfortable leaving my doggies (one who has health problems) with her. She updated me several times during the day, and assured me the boys had every need met. She didn't push them - but responded well to their missing mom and other quirks. Thank you Angela!”
“Jaime did a great job taking care of my 2 cats and 2 dogs while I was on a work trip. He was communicative and competent, listened to my pets needs and took flawless care of them. I didn't have to worry at all as I received regular photo updates. Thank you, Jaime!”
