“Kerri has been the best sitter for our Tiller! With photos everyday while we were gone and easing my nerves along the way that he was having the BEST time with her dogs in the snow and also playing inside, We would definitely use her again!”
“I highly recommend Amber. She was amazing with our lab mix. I'm new to using a dog sitter and Amber made the whole process seamless. She sent pics, videos and regular updates which was extremely appreciated!”
“Jennifer was absolutely incredible while caring for our dog, Loki, during a week when my husband Joey and I were away on a cruise. Leaving your pet behind is never easy, but Jennifer made the entire experience feel effortless and reassuring. From day one, she went above and beyond to keep us connected. She sent frequent updates, along with tons of photos and videos, so we could see exactly how Loki was doing. It wasn’t just check-ins—it genuinely felt like we were still part of his daily life. Seeing him happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for gave us so much peace of mind. Jennifer handled him with such patience, attentiveness, and warmth that he seemed completely at home. It’s clear she truly cares about the dogs she looks after, treating them like her own rather than just a job. I couldn’t recommend Jennifer more highly. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, communicative, and genuinely wonderful with dogs, she’s the one. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again.”
“Gabby is wonderful. She cared for our dog for the first time for 6 days and it went really well. My dog is older and prefers a quiet setting so Gabby was a perfect fit as she only cared for one other dog during the stay which was perfect. She communicates daily (including pictures) and gives her guests lots of attention. I'll definitely use Gabby again!”
“Donna replies promptly which I really appreciate. She has a large house and fenced in yard that provided my 72lb dog plenty of room. Donna is super flexible with allowing dogs on the furniture If that is what they are used to at home and is very considerate to ask what training at home should she be aware of to ensure she stays consistent while the dog is in her care. Thank you Donna for providing us peace of mind this weekend!”
“Alejandro was great with our 5 month old puppy Shrek. He sent us lots of videos of Shrek on walks, and socializing with other dogs. It was our first time leaving Shrek and and the videos and frequent communication with Alejandro was very comforting. Bizcocho was a great playmate too. Since Shrek is a puppy and still learning it is important to us that he be around friendly dogs like him. The next time we need to leave Shrek with someone Alejandro and Bizcocho are our first choice. Thanks Alejandro!”
“We were definitely happy with our dog’s stay with Veronique and her family. We got lots of pictures and videos while we were away, and she was very responsive if we had any questions.”
“Rachel and Henrik (and their two wonderful kids!) watched our two Goldendoodles for the weekend, and we couldn’t have had a better experience. From the start, it was clear this was a perfect fit—we did a meet-and-greet beforehand, and instantly felt comfortable. Their home is beautiful, clean, and has a great backyard where our dogs had plenty of space to run and play. More importantly, our dogs were treated like part of the family—they got tons of attention, snuggles, and care all weekend. We also really appreciated the frequent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind. When we dropped them off, our dogs were so excited they ran right in without hesitation—that says everything. You can truly tell how much Rachel and Henrik love dogs and care for them as their own. One of the nicest families we’ve met, and we felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were so well cared for. We will absolutely be using them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional dog care.”
“Cyndi and her sister Sonnie were terrific dog sitters. This was the first time away from home for my dog Lenny. They looked after him extremely well, gave me frequent updates (texts and photos) and made me feel very comfortable that my dog was in great hands. I highly recommend, and I will use them again!!”
“Another great dog sitting adventure w John. The entire environment is fantastic. The family is extremely welcoming to their 4 legged pet over nighters. Thank you John and family-especially Laverne!”
“We had Jennifer watch our older GSD Dolly for the first time this week. Jennifer and her husband took very good care of our girl, were very attentive to her needs. She sent pictures of a happy, smiling dog to us, which we appreciated. Looking forward to using Jennifer for a much longer stay in the near future. They are definitely dog people.”
“This weekend was one of the hardest weekend of my life, we had to leave to bury my dad. I was devastated. We left King in Jinay’s care and it was the best decision. The way she took care of King made an unbearable weekend better and it’s something I will never forget. She sent us pictures, videos, and kept us up to date with our baby. Thank you Jinay for taking out the stress and worry for us and giving King love ❤️. King got to meet new friends. She even had a gift for us when we picked him up. Jinay I don’t even have to words to tell you how much we appreciated you. Thank you thank you thank you.”
“Vanessa is incredible. The whole family loved our dogs like they were their own. She was communicative and flexible - truly couldn’t ask for a better experience.”
“I can not recommend Catherine enough!! My 3 year old Bichon is fresh from a week-long stay with Catherine and we couldn’t be happier. Catherine and her entire family are welcoming, and Catherine lavishes my dog with affection. We love knowing that he is well-cared for, surrounded by loving people and a limited number of other small dogs, and we feel safe and comfortable leaving him for extended stays. Catherine responds quickly to all correspondence and sends me daily updates. I tried other dog care sitters in the past when Catherine was unavailable, and nobody else provides the same level of care.”
“Second time I have left my baby with Melissa (see my earlier review for how nervous I was to go on my first trip). She always has a good group of pups and my dog has the best time. I know he is safe and cared for as if he is one of her own. Thank you again!”
About: I have 15+ years of owning my own pets (dogs, fish, birds, and hamsters) and caring for other people’s pets. I feel comfortable feeding, bathing, walking and providing any other type of care the pet needs. I truly love animals and enjoy making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I have a six-year-old son who absolutely loves animals as well, so pets staying in our home should be friendly and comfortable around children. We are a caring, animal-loving home and can’t wait to meet and care for your pets like they’re part of the family! * If you prefer kid-free home, I recommend Friday to Sunday bookings. I am home full-time, so your pets will always have love, attention, and supervision throughout the day and will never be left alone for long periods. I’m able to take dogs out frequently for walks and potty breaks, and our apartment complex also has a fenced area where pets can safely run around and play. My goal is to make your pets feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home while you’re away! I care for every pet as if they were part of my own family. In my home, pets will receive constant supervision, plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of love and affection. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed while sticking to their normal routines as much as possible.
“Korin was such an attentive and AMAZING 5 star sitter for our Roise!! We went away on vacation for a week out of the country and she made sure to contact us every single day with updates as well as sending us lots of photos and videos in which we greatly appreciated! She did very good with our Rosie! 10/10 highly recommend to be used!! We will be using Korin again for the near future any time we are going away for sure!! Thank you Korin for everything!!”
“Ann is absolutely wonderful! She was willing to do a meet and greet beforehand, sent lots of pictures and updates, followed a lot of instructions, played with and walked our dog, was flexible about our dog's needs, and had a lot of patience when our dog barked at her husband because of his beard! And what a wonderful, huge yard to play in!! Thank you so much, Ann!!!”
“Sandy is absolutely wonderful! I was so impressed with her knowledge of dogs and how perceptive she was with our Daisy girl. So much so, we have already booked her for another trip to watch our pup. I would highly recommend her. It is very clear she is an animal lover and Daisy was immediately comfortable with her. I was grateful that she set up a meet and greet before booking to make sure we would all be a good fit. So thankful to have found Sandy and she will absolutely be our go-to dog sitter from now on!”

Amber was absolutely amazing with our fur baby, Blossom! From the moment we left Blossom in her care, we felt completely at ease knowing she was in such loving and capable hands. Amber sent daily updates along with photos and videos, which we truly appreciated and looked forward to every day. It was so comforting to see Blossom happy, comfortable, and having fun while we were away. Blossom also enjoyed spending time with the other dogs, which gave her plenty of socialization and playtime. It was clear that Amber genuinely cared for her as if she were her own. When we picked Blossom up, she was happy, healthy, and well cared for. I highly recommend Amber to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitter. We will definitely be using her services again in the future! ❤️🐾
Kerri was a fantastic sitter for my active lab. She kept me updated and sent tons of pictures daily of him having the time of his life. They cared for him as if he was their own and I couldn’t be more grateful. Macallan cannot wait to stay with Kerri and her family again!
Sabrina was absolutely wonderful to our big baby! Batman had the best time with Sabrina and her family. She sent us pictures and updates and made sure he was adjusting well to being away from us for a long weekend. I will absolutely be reaching out to her again in the future anytime we need someone, especially someone who will love our dog like we do.
Alex took care of Causi and Simba for a week even when we contacted him at the last minute. We received videos and photos of our dogs everyday. They played with other dogs and always had fun with them. Alex made them feel at home and he took care of them like his own dogs. We recommend Alex and hope he always has availability for our dogs.
I have to tell you I never left my baby before and was nervous and Jen and her family made me and nacho feel so comfortable. They treated him part of the family right away and he had the time of his life while was away I was so at ease and trusted her with all my heart . I got tons of videos and pics all day and he was in his glory and that’s all that matters amazing job Jenna Dan thank u again . I will never be using someone else she got our business forever thank u again xoxoxxo fantastic job if there is 10 stars that’s what she truly deserves
Gabby is a great option for pet boarding. She is a very sweet and loving caregiver. My pup had a great time running around her back yard. He was well taken care of and I can tell he loved staying at Gabby’s “camp” for a week. She regularly sent updates and photos every day. I highly recommend Gabby.
This is the second time we’ve used Lindsay and we couldn’t be happier! Our 2 dogs are so well taken care of and she provides plenty of updates and pictures so we never have to worry! Our dogs love it over at Lindsay’s, she treats them like her own. Will definitely be using again in the future!
This is the first time we are using Fanjing but she did great job with Chopper. He is a loving dog yes but need a lot of attention. Her and her husband never left his side. Thank you for that especially. I would highly recommend her to everyone who is looking for sitter :)
Our doggos took an instant liking to Kyla, whom from this first instance of contact was so incredibly polished and professional and really helped put us at ease. She sent is pictures for updates and answered all of our questions. We will definitely be repeats, our dogs had a superb time and hardly missed us at all
We can’t say enough great things about Samantha! This was our first time ever leaving our dog Luna with someone, and from the very beginning she made us feel completely at ease. She was kind, communicative, and treated Luna like her own. Luna was happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved during her 3-night stay. We’re so grateful to have found Samantha and would absolutely trust her with Luna again!
