“Rodeliza is so good with Charlie. She has taken care of him a couple of times now. Charlie is an only pet, and each time he is excited to stay and comes home exhausted from his fun times with the other dogs.”


“Janet did an amazing job taking care of our dog. Annabelle was well cared for, and Janet sent us frequent pictures and updates on how she was doing. Would definitely let her take care of our girl anytime.”


“Rebecca was amazing with Remington. She sent a video of him playing with her dogs and he was very tired from all the play time when I picked him up the next day. She even sprayed him with doggy cologne so he smelled nice and fresh! She was very flexible with the pickup time as well. Would definitely be using her in the future and would recommend her!”


“Amy and her lovely family took Dude, my 1 yo male Lab, for a week. They assimilated him into their pack from day one and made him happy. She shared updates and pictures at least once a day. He’s a handful but they took it all in stride and with aplomb. I’ll def use them again for any of my dog sitting needs!!”


“Miss Becky was amazing! I booked her last minute for a 10 day trip I was going on. She was very responsive and let me know she would be glad to take care of my dog and cat. I was able to come by her house and see where my babies would be staying. She was very welcoming and made me feel good about leaving them with her. I asked for updates often and she was very responsive with pictures. My babies enjoyed their stay at her home and I will definitely book with her again. Her family bonded well with my babies and really made them feel at home. We appreciate you Miss Becky we will definitely book with you again.”


“Apollo was well taken care of by Jaclyn! We had frequent communication and updates, and when we reached out, she responded very quickly! It was the longest we had been away from him. I will use Jaclyn again in the future!”


“Absolute Amazing experience for my first time using this app. I was able to go on vacation without worrying about our sweet fur baby. Thanks for sharing photos & loving on our fur baby. Lori took great care of her!! Highly recommended! Thanks so much”


“Mary was absolutely amazing to work with. She was completely flexible with my drop off and pick up times. Her love of animals is completely transparent. She kept me completely updated on how much fun my girl was having by the multiple pictures I received daily. I won't hesitate to book with her again!”


“We recently boarded our two dogs, Sushi and Trixie, with Grayson for 10 days, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. From the very beginning, Grayson was sincere, friendly, and incredibly easy to communicate with. It gave us great peace of mind knowing our dogs were in good hands. Throughout their stay, Grayson sent us regular updates and adorable pictures, which truly reassured us. Sushi and Trixie looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for every time. When we picked them up, they were calm and content, which says a lot about the care and attention they received. We’re so grateful to have found someone as reliable and kind as Grayson. We’ll definitely be using his services again the next time we’re out of town, and we highly recommend him to anyone looking for trustworthy and loving dog care!”


“Rose was great with my Ace. She was very communicative and replied to messages quickly. She also provided pictures and updates on any milestones he reached while in her care.”

“Abby took great care of Rocky! I know he loved having a backyard and a wonderful pup playmate just like him. I appreciated that Abby contacted me often during his stay - as I am easily worried about this bad back! Thanks again for caring for him and letting him trade beds with your pup :)”
