1. Lisa S.
“My Lola had a blast staying with Lisa! She sent many pictures and updates during her stay and was very responsive. Plenty of toys and comfy places for a pup to enjoy in the household and a safe fenced in yard. Would definitely recommend!”
2. Alice b.
“Alice is absolutely amazing ! As soon as we dropped Benji off, we felt like he was in the best hands! This was one of the first times we were away from him this long and Alice made us feel so at ease and reassured throughout the whole trip! I’ve found a permanent dog-sitter in Alice ! I highly recommend and appreciate you, Alice ! Thank you for everything !!”
3. Kevin R.
“Kevin was amazing at working with me when I change her drop off time twice due to flight changes. He sent me pictures and videos and let me know Cookie was warming up to him (as I was worried about that, as she is wary of people she doesn't know). He was also accommodating in letting someone else pick up cookie for me as I wouldn't be able to. Cookie seemed to be her normal self when I returned home and hopefully she was good for Kevin during her stay. I would book with Kevin again as he was very chill and laid back about Cookie.”
4. Christy & Erkam N.
“Another great visit with Christy and Ekram. I’ve never left my baby with someone else this long but they sent pictures and updates every day and made a huge effort to make sure she started eating again.”
5. Scott S.
“Always a good experience! Scott is professional, flexible, an excellent communicator and always sends lots of photos. Won’t hesitate to send my dog to stay with him again.”
6. Jessica V.
“Jessica took care of my dog Iommi for a long weekend while I traveled out of state for my brother's wedding. It was my first time leaving Iommi and Jessica was the perfect person to leave her with. I was admittedly anxious about leaving Iommi for the first time, but as soon as I arrived the morning of drop-off Jessica made me feel 100% at ease. She took care of Iommi like she was her own and I know Iommi had a great time staying with Jessica and her family and playing with her dog Rip. I highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for care for their pet! I will definitely be booking with Jessica again!”
7. Lucia R.
“Had a great experience booking with Lucia! She took great care of our dog for 3 days and sent pictures/updates. She brought him to the dog park and he got lots of play time. Lucia was a great communicator too!”
8. Jenevieve Y.
“Jenevieve was everything you could want in a pet sitter! We left our dog and cat with her while we were gone for a week. They both thrived and got loved on by the whole family. She followed feeding instructions to a “T” and gave them so much loving and attention. We will definitely book with her again! Can’t recommend enough.”
9. Cory G.
“We came to Iowa for a wedding. Cory took good care of our 2 senior dogs (labs). One has separation anxiety that he was able to comfort and the other took a nap on his bed. He walked and fed them.”
10. Sarah W.
“Our dog Bella was so content and happy and got along well with her dogs. Sarah was great in all areas and sent us updates and photos. Will definitely use her again.”
11. Cory W.
“Appreciated Cory and spouse caring for our dogs. They always sent an update when we asked! Our dogs were exhausted upon returning home from so much playing! Grateful to have them in a positive space.”
12. Maricela V.
“Maricela was awesome with easing in Sami into her home, giving her space to get used to the new environment. She sent pictures daily and was always incredibly responsive in both the inquiry and once booked. She accommodated our requests and was incredibly friendly. Definitely recommend Maricela if you are looking for someone that will treat your pet as their own!”
13. Evan H.
“We always love when Mochi stay with Evan and his wife, as we know he is in good hands. Mochi also loves staying with them and playing with Winny. All of us are happy to book a stay with Evan and his family when we need it. ”
14. Alexandra H.
“Alexandra made me feel very comfortable leaving Homie with her for a week. Her house is perfectly set up for dogs and she has a massive backyard. She washed Homie’s bedding before we picked him up and his food bowls too. She provided photos every day and really kept us reassured that he was well taken care of.”
15. Mackenzie W.
“Super nice, great communication! Received pictures&/or videos every day. Coco really seemed to enjoy herself and came back happy and freshly bathed! Thank you!”
