“We had a great experience with Lisa and family, caring, reliable, and easy to work with. The dogs seemed to love them which gave us peace of mind. I really appreciated the pick-up and drop-off service, which made things so much more convenient. I would definitely trust her again and won’t hesitate to book with her in the future!”


“Steve was great with my big boy Ace , he saved me by accepting him on very short notice for a long stay so I’m very greatful. Sent me pics daily and kept me posted. Ace came home happy , fed and in good spirits. Will definitely use his service again .”


“Lasya was so accommodating on short notice. We were going to be away for a long day and realized we should have a pet sitter. Lasya was kind and accommodating. We really appreciate the care and photos that are sent. And our dogs getting along is a bonus! Thank you again so much!”


“Allesha took great care of my dog. Her house and yard are lovely and she sent me many updates and took care to get my finnicky dog to eat. Allesha's dogs are very friendly and playful, but she is perceptive of body language and sets up gates in the house if one dog needs a break. She was also flexible with our vacation plans when they changed. I recommend her!”


“Jax had a great time with Natalia. He loved playing with her dog and my daughter loved that she sent pictures during his stay. Would definitely recommend. I was nervous as this was our first time leaving him with someone but would not hesitate to do it again with Natalia. Thanks for taking such great care of Jax”


“Shivadarshini was great to work with! When I reached out to her about Biscuit staying over while we were away, she offered Biscuit and I stop to by for a quick visit ahead of time to make sure we were both comfortable with her staying for a week. Biscuit had a great time playing with her dogs as well. She sent outfits twice a day which was so sweet and kind of her to think about doing. She met any need or requirement I asked for. Biscuit will be visiting again next time we are out of town.”


“Lorissa is the Mary Poppins of pooch sitters. Auggie lived out his best life and then some. She and her husband also sent a lot of updates, pictures, and videos, which I loved. We would totally book Lorissa in the future.”


“So happy I booked with Kayla to sit my pup while I was on vacation. She kept my mind at ease with all the pictures and the updates. I felt confident she would treat my dog right. I definitely plan on booking with her again in the near future.”


“Nia was absolutely amazing. She took wonderful care of my pup. She kept me updated on his well-being the entire time I was away. I'm soo grateful to have found someone to care for my pup who is so loving, kind and professional. I will absolutely recommend and work with Nia in the future.”


“Jess was great! I was really worried about having a sitter for my two dogs but she took care of them like they were princesses! Very nice, caring and kind. She even put up with me acting like I was taking my kids to their first day of kindergarten crying like a baby. Thank you Jess and I look forward to working with you again.”


“I would trust leaving my dog here any time. He was loved and cared for by this amazing couple like he was their own. This was my first time trusting anyone with my dog and the experience exceeded my expectations in every way. Received daily pictures and updates, was able to enjoy vacation worry free. Highly recommended!”


“Could not recommend Breanna more. She took such good care of our Lexy. Her dogs and cat are fantastic and welcomed Lexy into their home. She sent us updates with videos every day”


“I can’t speak highly enough of Tammy. I absolutely hate leaving my precious lil’ guy anywhere but I could tell as soon as she opened the door that I had found the right pet sitter. She was communicative, friendly, and very involved in making sure Jordy had a great time while he was there. 10/10 would definitely recommend.”


“Frankie came home tired and that’s a sign of a good stay. We got updates and pictures during our overnight boarding and we’re very pleased. Will definitely use Whitney & Samuel in the future.”


“I recently boarded my dog, Marty, with Erika again for the 3rd time, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Erika's genuine love for dogs and her professional approach made me feel completely at ease. Marty came home happy, healthy, and clearly well-cared-for. Highly recommend Erika for her exceptional dog boarding services! we will be back!”
