“Brigid was perfect for my older dog Scout. She is very loving and attentive. Scout seemed very content with Brigid, who kept me updated with photos and videos. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for Scout.”

“Maegan was great! She responded quickly each time I contacted her. Maegan's house and yard are well set up for a visiting dog. She is relaxed and calm and well-prepared. Drop-off and pick-up were very easy. My little dog seemed comfortable in Maegan's house. I was given an update and a picture of my dog while I was away. I would happily choose Maegan as a sitter again.”

“Serhii and Olesia treat my dog like family. They have watched Chuley several times now and she always comes back calm and happy. They administer her meds and take very good care of her.”
“Shantalee was phenomenal with our boxer, Peanut, on a last minute request! Her apartment was perfect for our pup and they snuggled the entire weekend. Shantalee is warm, attentive, had great communication, and truly loved our girl! We’ll absolutely use her again.”
“Kaitlyn was amazing! She helped us out when we were in a pinch and needed dog sitting for a weekend with only one days notice! We had never had Lucy boarded anywhere before and we were a bit nervous about the process, but it went so smoothly! She sent pictures to reassure my kiddos she was being well taken care of! I would definitely recommend her services and will be using her again for dog sitting in the future!”

“Laura watched our dog Nathan for the weekend and sent pictures and videos. Her house was very dog friendly and she has a lovely yard for the dogs to run around. We will definitely use her again.”
“Cheryle is a great dog-sitter. Her house is well set-up for a little dog, with low couches, ramps and lots of cozy spots. Her dachsund was a great companion for my dog, Roscoe. Roscoe came home calm and happy after 5 days at Cherlye's. He was on a variety of meds for a sore back and she managed all those well and took great care of him.”

“Lori was so amazing with our bernese mountain dog and accommodating when our flight got back at 10pm. This is our second time we left our pup with Lori and she is just the best !”


“We'd never boarded our dog before; the first time was with Samantha. Things went very smoothly. She has a lovely, calm demeanor that put our dog at ease right away. Sam sent just the right number of updates to show that our dog was doing fine. She followed our instructions, and all was well. Thank you Sam!”


“This was our first time booking with Kyle, and she was great! Our pup can be rather anxious initially when going somewhere new, but she relaxed very quickly with Kyle. Kyle was always responsive and reassuring, and sent lots of photo updates. Traveling is hard for me because I hate being away from my "kids", but I was able to relax and enjoy my scheduled time away because of Kyle. Ripley can't wait to book again!”

“Wife was very nervous leaving her baby with someone new while we went on vacation. Cache was wonderful with daily updates and pictures/videos. Would definitely recommend her and be a repeat client.”


“Bryanna was an amazing host for our puppy Sunny! She provided frequent updates and pictures throughout his stay, which was much appreciated. After his stay, she gave us great feedback about our boy!”

“So grateful for Chelsea!!! Had to go out of town for a wedding and couldn’t bring my pup. Chelsea and Christopher were life savers! This was my first time boarding my pup for any overnight stay. They have watched her in the past for doggy daycare so I knew she would be in good hands. They made sure that they kept me updated and I got lots of photos and could tell that my puppy was taken care of. would definitely recommend!!”

“Amanda was probably the best sitter we’ve ever had! We got frequent updates and amazing pictures of all the adventures Amanda took our dog on. It was almost like he was on vacation too!”

“Extremely good pet sitter. My elderly dog stayed over thanksgiving break and I got frequent updates/pictures. Very intuitive about my dog’s wants/needs. You would struggle finding a better person to take care of your animals, especially if you have a dog with a big personality.”
