“Shirley has taken care of Ripley several times, and she has formed a genuine relationship with our little boy. The photos she sends every day as well as her comments show that Ripley enjoys staying with her. We have full trust and confidence in Shirley as the best person for Ripley when we are out of town. She cares for him and his well-being, physically and emotionally. Thank you, Shirley! Dagmar and Mohsin”

“John did a great job with our 125lb Bernese Mtn Dog, Georgia. From the pictures we received every day, it was clear Georgia was getting a lot of love and attention. She had a fenced in back yard and a very friendly playmate. We definitely plan to use John again!”
“Lana was fantastic! Liara gets really scared from loud noises like fireworks, and of course people were setting then off on New Years Eve... Lana went out of her way to figure out how best to calm and make Liara feel safe and loved. 100% will be using her in the future!!!”
“Bailey is a caring, knowledgeable and experienced pet owner and caretaker. Freddy was well-cared for and I was sent several photos during the day to let me know how he was doing. Bailey was sensitive in incorporating Freddy into her pack of two dogs. I felt very comfortable and confident that Freddy was well cared for. Thank you!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Katie! From the very beginning, she made us feel completely comfortable leaving our old pup in her care. She sent us updates that put our minds at ease, and it was obvious how much love and attention she gave. Our dog was so happy with her that she actually cried when it was time to come home! We are beyond grateful and will absolutely be booking with her again.”
“Susan is wonderful, I thank her so much for all the help with puma and venus, they love to be with her and her furbabies, always so flexible with the time I really appreciate that, she is always the first person I think of if I have to work and I don't want to leave my babies alone all day.”
“Katherine and her partner did a wonderful job taking care of my Aegon and I'd be delighted to have him stay there again! Cuddles and trips to the dog park, frequent communication and even a stuffy that my pup loved while he was there to take home! A great relief to have my boy cared for while I was away.”
“Manuel was so good to my baby Luna!!! He agreed to a last minute booking for me during a week long vacation. He sent daily photos and updates and was very responsive to messages throughout her stay. We will DEFINITELY book with him again!”
“Karen was amazing with our two dogs. They were immediately comfortable in her home. She was very attentive and took them on several walks despite not having the best weather. Our dogs are usually very anxious to be left at our typical boarding place but they seemed completely at ease with Karen. Her home and yard are immaculate. Would definitely use again!”
“Eniya is great! She was able to watch my pups at the last minute and she took excellent care of them. This isn’t the first time I have booked with her and it won’t be the last. I highly recommend her!”
“Cagatay is the best dog sitter I have ever used. My dog Earl seemed so happy staying with him and his loving family for about six weeks. I received frequent pictures of all the fun adventures Earl had both on walks and playing with Cagatay‘s sweet daughter. Cagatay is the nicest man and clearly loves animals. I highly recommend him and know we will be using him a lot in the future. It’s such a relief to leave your dog in such good hands.”
“Wow, our Siberian Husky was so well cared for and loved. Andrea and her husband went above and beyond with meeting our dogs needs. We are so grateful for being able to leave Magnus there for 5 days and having him home with no anxiety.”
“Our dog stayed with Angelina for a week. She sent pictures every day and kept us updated on how our dog was doing. Our dog felt right at home and enjoyed the walks and backyard! I would highly recommend Angelina!”
