“So happy with the care and love Kelly gave to my girls while I was away on a trip. She was so thorough and asked lots of questions to make sure she had everything she needed for the girls stay with her. She sent me pictures and videos every day. I can tell Willow and Juniper had a very nice time. Thank you so much for taking such good care of my babies!”

“I would highly reccomend for anyone who needs a dog sitter to use Colleen. She was very friendly and made us feel comfotable when we arrived. Her house is dog friendly. This was tge first rime I ever used a dog sitter and I was very pleased. She sent several pics of our dog happily enjoying herself and a fun video of my German Shepherd puppy playing with her dog. When I needed to extend the time she allowed us to extend a whold day. It was a great experience and I will use her again.”
“Shume was amazing from start to finish! Very professional and knowledgeable! Communication was perfect, and we had no worries the entire time we were away from our fur baby! For pet parents that care for the safety and comfort of their pets like they are truly your children, Shume is too if the list! We will book with her every chance we get!”
“It's never easy to find a new sitter when you move to a new area. We were so fortunate to find Diane through Rover. Honey is a loving and sweet dog, but nervous about new situations. Diane understood and went the second mile to care for her. What a blessing!”
“I've left my baby Mojo at his vet for boarding and with family always needed some meds to get him through not with Melanie wonderful videos and pics to prove it Mojo and Stella played so well together Melanie did so much for us I will be using her for all my times away Thank you Melanie and Stella”
“Jessica was great! We had a last minute trip and she was able to accommodate us and worked with our schedule. We knew from the meet and great that Gus would be in good hands. We received pictures and videos and Gus looked happy and like he was having a fantastic time’ Gus was comfortable and made himself right at home! Definitely recommend them and will use again!”
“We could not be happier with our experience using Meaghan and Johnny to care for our pup, Grayson. They welcomed him into their home and made him part of their family. They made us feel very comfortable leaving him there and kept us updated with pictures and videos of his adventures while we were away. Grayson had so much fun there that we were afraid he would not want to come home :). If you are looking for a compassionate and caring family to care for you pet, look no further.”
“Donna is absolutely amazing and wonderful with dogs. I know our babies had the best week with her! We would not hesitate to use her any time we need dog sitting!”
“Jasmin and Isaiah are great! I needed a sitter at the last minute and they both ensured I was 100% comfortable every step of the way. They not only provided a safe space for Bella and Dream, but they also walked and played with them daily.”
“Another amazing stay for Nilla with Autumn and Paul! She was so excited to see them again and couldn’t wait to get in the house to play with her pups! I never worry at all about our fur baby because I know Autumn loves them like her own. Nilla even sleeps with them. They are special sitters and I highly recommend them!!!”
“Barbara and Keith are prepared and thorough dog sitters! They have an outdoor space setup to keep pets out of the dirt and weather, but entertained and active. They took our bernedoodle on multiple walks a day and played games with her. We had a meet and greet prior to our pet’s stay and I received pictures and communication while she was there. Great care and peace of mind!”
“Brittany is fantastic! She kept both of our pups. One has really bad anxiety and warmed right up. Brittany also sent pictures and videos while we were gone. We are so thankful we found her, because we know our fur babies are very well taken care of in her hands.”
“Auburn was absolutely the best possible person we could have found to care for my mom's dog. She was kind, flexible, understanding, and totally amazing. My mom had to accompany her partner to an out of town medical facility, immediately after he received a surprise terminal diagnosis. She was very worried about her dog. Auburn picked Ginger up, took great care of her, sent regular pictures and updates, and dropped Ginger off after my mom got home, late at night. She was beyond accommodating and I would recommend her to anyone. If we ever have another need for service, we hope and pray Auburn will be available.”
“Danielle was an absolute lifesaver for us! My senior dog has anxiety, and has never stayed with a non-family member, so leaving her for 5 days was initially a bit daunting. However, Danielle was incredibly patient and understanding, and her calm demeanor really helped my pup settle in. Daily text updates and photos provided peace of mind. The photos clearly showed that she was comfortable and captured adorable moments of her relaxing. It was evident how well my dog was cared for. Danielle followed all instructions, and the home was clean. Booking is highly recommended!”

Brett is amazing and my pup really seemed very comfortable staying at his home. Very warm, friendly, and flexible. It took longer to pick her up because I was traveling from out of state and Brett was completely understanding. Would definitely book with him again. Highly recommend because of good communication and positive vibes ✨️
Highly recommend Autumn and Paul! They have taken care of our pups a couple times now and have done an exceptional job. Our pups were well loved, given great care and attention and were so happy when we picked them up. So glad we have found this sweet family to care for our dogs when we are away.
Diane took Fantastic care of Winston for a week. It was so very nice to go on vacation and not worry about him. She genuinely cares and enjoys dogs, was super easy to work with, has a great yard, sent us pictures and updates. Winston was very well cared for and had a good time with her and Jackie. Thank you so very much Diane!!!!
Eden was wonderful with Scout. She took wonderful care of her and gave her lots of attention. She sent us pictures of Scout and a video as well as giving an update. She is knowledgeable about dogs and loves them very much. So thankful to have found her to watch Scout. She was very professional and focused on pleasing us as the client.
This was Jack’s first time staying with Elizabeth, and it couldn’t have gone better! He had a fantastic time playing with Murphy and came home happy and tired. Elizabeth sent photos and quick updates throughout his stay, which made us feel completely at ease. Jack even came home with a new favorite toy! We’re so grateful to have found Elizabeth and will definitely be booking with her again.
Had a seamless experience with Olivia! She paid attention to our rescue pup’s needs, such as avoiding encounters with other dogs due to his trauma, and provided us with updates throughout his stay. Definitely using her services again next time we need the help!
