1. Oli M.
“It’s always a relief to find a safe and responsible dog sitter, especially with a last-minute schedule change. Even better, my lovely Goldendoodle, Rubee, has made a new friend.”
2. Mando H.
“Mando did a great job caring for Kansas for 13 days while we were away. We appreciated all the photos and updates, and we knew Kansas was always in good hands!”
3. Scarlett C.
“Scarlett is truly a dog whisperer! Her genuine love for animals shines through in everything she does. My beloved, anxious dog and shy cats instantly warmed up to her—it was amazing to see. Scarlett has a natural connection with all creatures, whether it’s dogs, cats, or even horses. Every animal she meets seems drawn to her, like she’s Dr. Doolittle in real life! When you leave your pups with Scarlett, it’s not just pet care—it’s a vacation for them, too. With daily hikes through her beautiful, mountainous neighborhood and her undivided love and attention, your dog will feel like the center of the universe while you’re away. I can’t recommend Scarlett enough!”
4. Kim N.
“Kim is by far the most amazing helpful person on the planet when it comes to your pups. She took care of my two guys which were a handful and managed to make them happy. Gave them bars and gelato treats. She is truly an angel when it comes to helping you feel good about leaving your babies behind.”
5. Daysha C.
“We had a wonderful experience with Daysha. She was responsible, warm, calm and a natural dog whisperer! Chai was very welcoming to our Teddy too. Daysha, did a lovely job keeping us tuned in to how Teddy was doing while we were away, which was a big comfort. We highly recommend her for boarding and walks, your pet will be in excellent, capable hands!”

“Mia is fantastic. She is very considerate, accommodating as well as incredibly responsive and communicative.

She makes sure to give your furry friend the love and attention they need and I wouldn’t ask any other to look after Duchess.”

18. Elaine & Martin W.
“Our little pup did really well with Elaine & Martin. We were worried because our dog is kind of peculiar, but they were great with her!

19. Katie G.
“Katie is an absolute gem! She has cared for my golden retriever multiple times, and I couldn’t ask for a better sitter. Every time I pick him up, he’s happy, healthy, and completely tuckered out from all the fun he’s had. It’s clear he adores Katie, and I can see why—she has the biggest heart and an undeniable love for animals. She goes above and beyond to make sure he’s comfortable, entertained, and well-loved while I’m away. Knowing he’s in her care gives me such peace of mind. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pup like family, Katie is the one!”
20. David E.
