“Paula was amazing! She took great care of my dogs over thanksgiving and they had such a good time. I highly recommend her to watch your fur babies because I know she took great care of mine :)”


“Lucky was great for watching our dog Finnley. They were very flexible with dropoff and pickup times, and Finnley was so excited when we got there. The daily check ins included how he slept and ate the previous day, and how he was doing overall. Any questions we had were answered quickly. Finnley was well looked after while we were away, and we definitely plan on booking with Lucky again in the future!”


“Zach is hands down the best dog sitter in the area! Our dog Obi can be very nervous about being away from home so we are always hesitant when going away. Obi had SO MUCH FUN with Zach. We got daily pics and updates on how Obi was doing and we could tell he was having the time of his life. We appreciate the time Zach took on his daily updates to help put our minds at ease while away. We will for sure bring Obi back to Zach's house for dog sitting in the future. Thanks so much!”


“Another amazing stay with Cassie!! Can’t say enough wonderful things about Cassie and the love and care she gives to each and every pet in her care. Our Sully absolutely adores her and we never worry when we’re away. Thank you, Cassie!! You are a true gift and we are so thankful to have found you!!”



“Helen was absolutely fabulous!!! It was our first time leaving our rescue pup with someone outside of family and we were a bit unsure how he would do and naturally a little nervous. Well, let's just say as soon as Helen welcomed Theodore and I into her home during the meet and greet, he was already feeling pretty comfortable. Her home is like a doggie heaven, they get to go in and out as they please with the doggie door and into the fenced yard, Theo got to chill on the couch or bed and really enjoyed himself. Helen sent us updates with pictures and videos which was great to see and hear how he was doing. Another added bonus is Helen's web cams, it was neat to be able to login and see what he was up to, but honestly we felt very comfortable with her service, we look forward to using her for future visits. Thank you again!!”


“Our dogs were so happy and TIRED when they came home! I think they really lived spending time with Verlee and her family! They had lots of space to run and play and met so many new friends!! We will gladly drive the extra miles to have them stay again!”



“DAMACIA J., thanks for everything and taking care of my baby Chuichuala Jolene. She had a great time and bonded with her and the other dogs. I was sent photos of my dogs attachment to her sitter and the other dogs. Jolene really liked her dog. Thanks for everything.”


“Fantastic sitters in every way! They took amazing care of our dog and we could not ask for anything more. We received multiple photos and videos throughout our vacation, which showed how much our dog was being loved on and how well she was being taken care of. Will absolutely request this couple again.”


“Rochael and her family took such great care of our dog! Our dog is very small and older and I felt completely comfortable leaving him with them after our initial meeting. She sent photos and status updates throughout our vacation and he seemed healthy and happy when we picked up! Couldn’t have asked for more! Would happily have her keep him again and definitely recommend.”


“Maisey had a great time staying with Ashley and her family! Ashley was so sweet, felt comfortable giving Maisey some oral antibiotics she happened to be on during our vacation, and made accommodations for Maiseys physical needs (in fact- we learned maisey can actually negotiate stairs despite her 3 leggedness during her stay with Ashley!!). Ashley was communicative, responsive and sent us sweet pictures of our good old gal having a good time with the other dog staying with her. So glad I found Ashley, it is reassuring to know there’s a great dog sitter nearby!!”


“Adam took great care of our pup! She came home happy and content after her stay. We loved getting pics and updates of her during her stay too! Thanks, Adam!”



“Luna frequents Laura’s quite a bit but this was her longest stay and it was such a peace of mind to us being across the country knowing she was at her home away from home. The pictures Laura sent throughout the week showed she was having the happiest vacation herself 😎🐾”


“Stephanie and her entire family was so gracious accommodating and warm. My wife Karen and I instantly felt like our fur babies were in great hands from the meet & greet. Stephanie kept us updated while we on vacation which made our trip even better. We will definitely call on Stephanie again. On this app I can only leave 5 stars, but she is definitely an eleven on a 10 point scale😊. Thank you so much Stephanie for taking care of Kokoa and Sevyn.”


“Our three dogs had a wonderful time at Radka's and Jim's home. They stayed 3 days and 2 nights. I could tell they were happy and well-loved from the many photos Radka sent us during their stay. We are thrilled with this experience and plan to book with them again next time we have to be out of town.”


“Dahlia and Jalen are so pleasant and welcoming! From the photos Dahlia sent, I can tell that Milo loved his sleepover with them and the other pups. He came home tired and happy. I’m thrilled to have found these wonderful dog sitters and I highly recommend them!”


“Tiffani provided outstanding care for Sadie, my previous furbaby! She was personally-attentive to Sadie's needs. Sadie's appetite increased under Tiffani's care. Tiffani also had a beautiful property in the country which allowed for Sadie to feel at home. There was a positive energy in-and-around Tiffani's property. Tiffani was diligent about giving Sadie her supplements. Her communication was great. Tiffani had a warm demeanor. I highly-recommend you board with her!”


“Rhonda was the best with our Winnie! She provided a beautiful place for Winnie to stay and peace of mind for us. We loved receiving pictures. So thankful!”


“First time my 8 year old dog spent a night away from family, so I was apprehensive. Amanda and Adam bonded with him at the meet and greet, and his trial night went well. I'll be booking more nights with them.”


“Inca loved her time with Sari and her pup! She was quick to communicate, provided happy updates, and made us feel so comfortable. Would definitely use her again in the future!”


“Sheri was the ABSOLUTE BEST! She has a beautiful family and my dog fell in love with all of them. She did an exceptional job of taking care of my dog and even went the extra mile and cleaned his little eye boogers. Also, she kept me updated with lots of photos which definitely put me at ease. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!!!”
