“Would highly recommend Yvette as a dog sitter! I left my 11 year old dog Ziggy with her for a week while I was on vacation and I could tell from the daily pictures and videos that she sent me how much Ziggy felt like he was at home. Normally when I get back from a trip Ziggy is overly excited to see me but he was calm and happy when I picked him up which I think speaks to how much he was cared for and how at ease he felt all week. We will definitely be returning clients, thank you Yvette!!!”


“Our Quincy had a safe and happy (I’m assuming, he can’t talk) stay. We were sent pictures and it looked like he was enjoying the company of other pups. Just sorry his stay was at the height of his end of winter shed. 😳 Thanks!”


“If you are looking for the absolute best for your pet - this is what you want. Tom is amazing! From our meet and greet, to checking vaccination records, then taking all of our dogs needs into consideration , and sending pictures and videos ! I have photos of my dog that looks like I paid a photographer ! What an experience. Five stars isn’t enough. Tom is the best, hands down, for you and your pets needs. Don’t look any further , book and rest easy whatever your plans. Enjoy! Thank you Tom for taking of Buddy like he was family! My buddy has new friends, and I will never hesitate to take a vacation again. It ended up being a vacation for my pup too !”

“Hedra was such an amazing sitter. I always have a hard time finding some one to care for my dog because he tends to get anxious. Hedra send me videos, photo of Louie, walked him around, played with him and Louie was so happy. Definitely booking him again soon, from now on I would not leave Louie with anybody else. Such a caring person.”

With their two dogs Henry and Jacks they were able to keep her running, walking, and content. We know our dog had a great time when she comes home spent, worn out, and sleeping for two days. Matthew sent pictures each day and Winnie had a blast. Two thumbs up and we will gladly use Matthew again..if he'll let our 17lb beast back in their home!”



“Patricia was an Amazing dogs sitter for our Gio! We were so comfortable leaving our baby with her!! She’s the sweetest person and will accommodate you any way she can.. She was so understanding when our plane was delayed and we had to pick him up late at night. She sent so many pictures for my kids to see him! The one thing I really loved is whenever I texted her, she got back right away!!! I would definitely rebook another stay if I go away for Gio!!”
