“First time I left my baby! And we felt like she had stayed with us as a family! The constant communication, the trust and the attention! They made us feel calm during our vacation! I simply recommend them 100%! I will literally go back to them when we need them for Mayiah! ❤️❤️”

“Shelisha did an amazing job with Luna! She kept me totally in the loop with constant updates, including tons of pictures and video messages. If you're a fur parent who values consistent notifications about your pet, Shelisha is highly recommended!”


“I would 100% recommend Vanessa to anyone looking for a quality pet sitter! She was so pleasant to work with, and she sent the sweetest updates while she was caring for my pup, Delta.

“Deanna is amazing. I hope she is.available whenever I need to board Ricky. She welcomed him into her home and he was one of the family during his stay. I appreciated the pictures and daily updates while I was away and had a good feeling knowing he was well taken care of and in good hands. I appreciated Deanna's patience with me and my schedule and I know Ricky enjoyed her large yard and the companionship of her dog Nekko.”

“Melissa and her husband were awesome! They treated my dog like family—walked him, cuddled with him, and even let him sleep with them. They kept me updated constantly with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. I could tell my dog felt right at home and was truly happy. It felt like a little vacation for him too! I would absolutely rebook with them again—eyes closed. Highly recommended!”

“Angelica is absolutely amazing. She sent photos and videos every single day, was responsive, friendly, and a wonderful professional. My pup was obsessed with her immediately. Her home was immaculate and safe for my girl. I could not have asked for a better sitter and will 100% be using her services again. I almost think my puppy didn’t want to leave her. Plus, she returned her to me having washed her bed and my puppy was clean and smelling amazing. You can’t go wrong with Angelica.”


“Jon did a great job with my large and sometimes unruly dog. Kaya came back from a four day stay with Jon as relaxed and as happy as ever. Photo updates of them on their walks was reassuring that she was getting quality care. Would definitely use Jon again for any upcoming boarding and would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets.”


“Cyd Marie was an amazing Petsitter for little Henry. She treated Henry as her own and kept me posted at least 3 times per day - with photos. It was like Henry was on a doggy vacation. I will absolutely use Cyd Marie again and have already asked her if she’d like to care for Henry again.. she said yes!”
