“Dana is the best sitter we have ever had for our pet. She is very attentive and very loving. We have a pet with high anxiety and Dana was very patient with her and quick to understand our pet and make her feel comfortable. Dana is wonderful at keeping us up to date with information and pictures. We highly recommend Dana!!!!”
“Rebecca did a great job with my two dogs. She communicates frequently, sent daily photos (which I love) and the dogs were happy. Will definitely use her again!”
“Christal was quick to respond and very communicative while my pup was with her family! Lots of love and cuddles were given and my pup came home tired and happy! I hope we can board with Christal again!”
“Elizabeth and Kevin are true professionals and made me feel safe leaving my three nervous fur babies. I received regular pupdates and could see that they were well cared for. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again in the future!”
“We feel so blessed to have found Daniel. He was so kind and caring towards my Paulie! We will try and book him again whenever he’s available. Thank you Daniel for being so awesome.”
“Tina is amazing! I couldn't have imagined a better experience. I have a 14-year-old dog who doesn’t think he’s a dog, and the idea of someone else caring for him was difficult to consider since he's so set in his ways and routines. But Tina went above and beyond to make the process seamless. She genuinely cares and takes the time to learn everything about the animals she cares for. I’m beyond grateful for the wonderful care she provided for Albie.”
“This was my second time using Gonzalo and this time I trusted him to watch my 2 babies while I was out of the country with limited access to my phone.

“Great new friends for Zulu to hang with!!! Their cool demeanor and willingness to take on an older puppers with seizure disorder left me knowing my best good buddy would be taken care of while we need to travel out of the country for work. I loved getting photos and videos while away. Will be back for more fun!!”
“Carolina was great with our dog Lucky! He had so much fun playing with her pup Lola. Carolina sent updates and pictures every day, which we LOVED. Communication was great from the start. I would definitely use her again.”
“Our two energetic goldendoodles stayed with Judy and Allen during our wedding and honeymoon for over two weeks. We were a little nervous leaving them with someone new for that long, but as soon as we met the Payne's, we felt completely comfortable! You can tell they are "dog people" and our doodles warmed up to them both instantly. Our pups were happy to see us when we got back (of course!), but it was obvious that they had a great time while we were gone! I'm pretty sure they came home with better manners than when we left, which is rare from our experience leaving them with other people! Judy and her husband are laid back/easy going and will work with you and your schedule. You'll be able to relax while you're out of town knowing that your pup is in great hands!”
“Dominique and Pete are absolutely wonderful. We have left our dogs with them multiple times. Dominique makes leaving our girls easy and worry free knowing they are in excellent hands.”

“Erica and Teddy took such great care of our dog while we were away! I knew our boy was in great hands after meeting them. I got daily updates with pictures and even some videos. I could tell our dog was so happy and safe with them. I will definitely be using them again!”
“Ravenna did an amazing job taking care of my sweet girl while I was out of town for several days and kept me updated regularly with photos and status reports. Would highly recommend her pet care services to anyone!”
