“I am thrilled to give Jeff a 5-star review for taking care of my furry baby, Happy! Jeff went above and beyond to ensure Happy's happiness and well-being. He sent regular updates, which put my mind at ease, and showed genuine care and compassion for my pet. I'm so grateful to have found Jeff and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable pet sitter. Thank you, Jeff, for giving Happy the love and attention he deserves!”

“Second time using Miguel’s services it won’t be the last, it is clear my two pups feel very comfortable around him and his family - the communication while they are with him is top tier, and as someone who last minute changes timeframes for pick up and drop off he is very flexible which I appreciate. I will certainly be using his services again, Thank you Míguel!”

“Jennifer took great care of our dog while we were out of town. She communicated with me every day and sent photos. Before drop off, she called and told me about the environment at her house and asked some questions, which was reassuring. She treated our dog like he was one of her family members. He came home happy and tired, and he made friends with some other pups. We would definitely use Jennifer again as a dogsitter. Thanks!”

“Harper had a wonderful stay, and I will certainly be requesting to book again next time I leave town. Amy regularly sent photos of all of the walks and activities Harper did during her stay, and I could see she was always having a blast.”

“Nadia was available last minute to take in my fur baby & kept great communication throughout my animal’s stay. My pup enjoyed being around the other animals & having room to roam. I felt extremely comfortable she was able to give me updates & answer any questions I had in a timely manner. I have already rebooked! ☺️💕”

“We had our pup boarded for a few nights with Cheryl. She is amazing, can’t say enough good things! Friendly, professional, and communicative every step of the way. Almost don’t want to say more so that my pup can have her all to himself!!! Thank you Cheryl!! We will be back!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Kendra did an amazing job watching my fur baby Rylo! She kept me updated throughout his stay with plenty of pictures and messages, which truly put my mind at ease while I was away and showed how much fun he was having. It was clear he was well cared for and loved. To top it all off, she even sent him home with a sweet gift 🥹💖. I’m so grateful for her care and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter! I will definitely be booking again for future stays.”

“Hilary and her family took great care of our pup for a 10 day stay while my husband and I were traveling. We received daily pictures and messages, so we knew how our pup was doing. We will definitely book again!”

“Alex is so kind and provides the best care. My 5 year old Aussiedoodle is very nervous around new people and dogs. Alex was so mindful of her needs and helped her settle in quickly to a new place while we were away. She sent photos and updates which made me feel more at ease while on our trip. I will definitely board my dog with her again. I can’t recommend her enough!”

“Laura was fantastic! She sent updates and pictures everyday. Nellie had the most fun with Laura and her family. I loved how they really adopted Nellie into the family for the week!”


“Amanda was great! My pup had so much fun. So much to the point I didn’t think she wanted to leave. :) Amanda has a lot of experience with dogs because she has two rescues. I really trusted her and I wouldn’t hesitate to leave my baby with Amanda again.”

“Jonathan was a great sitter, i appreciated the kindness and communication he provided. This was my dog’s first time being away from me and she did really really well. Thank you for sharing the videos and texts.”

I have used Daved a few times now to watch my dog Nova, and I am once again very happy with the experience! Daved is communicative, offers updates and photos, is diligent about care instructions, and seems to genuinely care about all the dogs he’s entrusted to look after. He’s got a great fenced in backyard, and I can easily tell that Nova thoroughly enjoys the time she spends in his care.

Sarah was wonderful with Kairi! I felt completely comfortable leaving her in Sarah’s care. She sent lots of updates and pictures, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I could tell Kairi was well taken care of and happy. I would absolutely book with her again!

Nancy was absolutely wonderful! She and her husband took care of my Maddie as if she was family. I received constant communication and prompt responses when checking in during my trip and coordinating drop off/pickup. Nancy was even kind enough to take Maddie a day early when inclement weather caused travel plans to shift. She also notified me right away when she noticed Maddie was scratching more than normal and was quick to offer suggestions to help her feel more comfy. As an anxious dog mama, I felt at ease knowing she was being so well cared for.
