1. Jana K.
“We were overjoyed with the love and care that our dog Pinky received while staying with Jana. Jana is knowledgeable about pets, obviously loves and cares for them. Pinky enjoyed spending time with Jana's two small dogs Petey and Bean. Jana has a lovely fenced in backyard and we were totally at ease and felt very safe with Pinky staying with Jana. Pinky was very well cared for and was very happy. When we ask Pinky if she wants to go visit Petey and Bean she runs for her leash. Jana sent photos and videos of Pinky to us which made us feel very reassured. It is a wonderful feeling knowing that our pet is very happy, safe and secure when it is necessary for us to travel. Thank you, Jana. We really appreciate you!!”

“Angela was so kind and communicative. Our Charley seemed happy and content when we got her back. We very much appreciated the care provided by Angela.”
3. Lisa M.
“My boys had a very relaxing weekend with Lisa and her husband. The fact that they don't have dogs or cats meant each of my boys got a lot of attention. I think they would've like to have stayed FOREVER, unfortunately for them, we did have to take them home.”
4. Kathryn B.
“My yellow lab had a fantastic couple of days. He got to swim, run around, and play ball, so that’s a 5 star stay in his book. Kathryn kept me updated and sent photod and was very accommodating for pick up and drop off. Would definitely use her again!”
5. Jared W.
“Our dog stayed with Joey for a few days during our wedding weekend. Jared was amazing! He kept us in the loop, sent us photos & videos. He also brought Joey to our ceremony location for photos! We will definitely use Jared’s services again & would recommend to family & friends.”
6. Cheyenne N.
“We had a last minute change in plans and needed to book a sitter to watch our two dogs. We have two very energetic dogs and can be a lot for most people. She was very open and loving towards the dogs since they stepped in the door. I will 100% go back to Cheyenne when we leave again. We received many pictures and updates throughout our entire stay. Cheyenne was extremely accommodating on our drop off and pick up schedule which took a lot of pressure off of us. Thank you so much Cheyenne in taking care of our loved ones.”
7. Kimberly & Jeremy S.

8. Colleen J.
“Colleen watched our German Shepard for the weekend while we were away. She provided updates, pictures and her daughter even helped out with quick vet exam!! We felt very comfortable leaving our dog with her and her family. We will certainly use Colleen again!”
9. Bob D.
“Bob is the best sitter you can ask for! His house is set up perfectly for dogs to go inside (the house) and outside (in the fenced-in yard) as they please. He even brushes them if they enjoy that! He trained my dog to use "doggie doors" and to not be afraid of the water. He gives you a lot of photos and updates as to how your dog is doing every day. My dog looked like he was having the time of his life! Couldn't have been happier to leave my dog with Bob for the weekend. I will definitely leave him with Bob in the future!”
10. Lisa M.

11. Janae F.
“Excellent care and communication! We have an extremely spoiled and clingy German Shepherd who we have a hard time leaving. Jenae was awesome at calming our dog (and us) down. Great communication and pictures while we were away. Highly recommend and will happily use again for pet sitting.”
12. Rachel & Ivan L.
“We always rely on Rachel to care for our dog whenever we go on vacation. She is a loving and responsible dog mom and shares that kind-heartedness with pets and their families. We feel confident that our lab will be treated like family in a safe and loving environment when at Rachel's house.”

14. Nicole M.
“Nicole did a fantastic job taking care of our Winnie! I received updates throughout our days and photos too. Our dog obviously enjoyed her time with Nicole and her dogs and kids. It was like her home away from home, just as we hoped while we were away.”
