She sent pictures regularly and let us know how great he was doing. I felt so reassured knowing he was happy and in such good hands. She's also easy and quick to get in touch with. Thank you Faith abs family for giving Parker a fun vacation of his own while we were away. He will certainly be back :)”

“Daisy was amazing with my picky dog. We scheduled a last minute trip and she was beyond accommodating and put our minds at ease knowing that we were leaving our pup in good hands.

Stacey sent frequent pictures and videos of our dog during his first stay with her. She welcomed our pup into her family and made sure that he was comfortable by providing snuggles and treats! We feel much more relaxed about leaving Indy in her care when we go on vacation next month. Thank you!

Carina was very easy to work with. She even had many of the items in her home already, like toys and food/water bowls. My dog came back super happy after his time with her. And the next time we booked her, he was even more excited to be back. She is very sweet, attentive and caring!

We had a great experience with Amina! She sent regular photo updates and kept us informed about how our dog was doing and getting along with her dog, which gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away. She has a wonderful backyard where the dogs could safely play off leash. She was also very accommodating and flexible when we needed to make some last-minute pickup changes. We really appreciated her care and communication, and we would absolutely trust her with our dog again!

Vanessa was absolutely wonderful! She had amazing communication throughout the entire stay and took such great care of my dog. She gave him treats, made sure he got plenty of walks, and truly made him feel comfortable and loved. I’m pretty sure he thought he was on a little spa retreat! I would happily book with Vanessa again and highly recommend her.

Richie did an absolutely wonderful job taking care of my dog atlas. From the start, he was reliable, attentive, and clearly cared a lot about Atlas’s well-being. He kept me updated, followed all instructions, and made sure Atlas was happy, safe, and well cared for the entire time. It gave me real peace of mind knowing Atlas was in such good hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust Richie again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable and caring dog sitter.
Cassandra had our pup over the holidays and went out of her way to accommodate us and make him perfectly at home, even in the midst of the year’s busiest season. She sent wonderful notes and photos, and we couldn’t be happier with the care he received. Thank you so much, Cassandra!

I was nervous about leaving my dog, Leo, with strangers because he's very nervous and had never been around woth strangers before. It was our first time. But when we met Deante and his wife, he gave us a lot of confidence and security. Even though Leo stayed only for one night, Deante was very communicative and attentive to Leo. He sent us messages and photos of his stay. I would definitely trust Deante with my Leo again. I recommend him 100%.

Penny had an amazing time with Kristina. It can be nerve wracking to leave your pet with someone new but Kristina and her sister immediately eased any anxiety as soon as I met them. You can really tell they love dogs. They sent plenty of photos and update of my dog having so much fun playing in the yard with their dogs. I am happy penny was so lovingly cared for and we will be back next time we have a trip! Thank you!
