5 stars is certainly not enough for Emma and Marco. My dog Nellie already misses them. I was never anxious regarding leaving Nellie with them from the first meet and greet and all throughout my vacation. Communication and wonderful pictures reassured me Nellie was completely accepting of her own vacation with Emma and Marco. I look forward, as does Nellie to another adventure in the future.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Sherry was absolutely amazing while taking care of my dog, Levi, for 10 days while I was away. From the very beginning, she made me feel completely safe and at ease, which means everything when trusting someone with your pet. She was incredibly loving and attentive with Levi, and it truly showed in how happy and comfortable he was in her care. Sherry kept me updated constantly with messages and updates, which I really appreciated and looked forward to. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would 100% trust her again. Highly, highly recommend!

Mark and his family do a great job. My dog, Loki, was well cared for and had so much fun during his stay. They are very responsive with messaging and booking. They are a top-notch family that is like a second home for my dog.

Danielle and her husband were absolutely amazing while watching our little guy (Jaxson) for a quick getaway this week. We were given constant updates/pictures, and he clearly made himself right at home and was as comfortable as can be. Communication was prompt from the beginning and we were truly at ease while we were away that he was receiving more than adequate care. Jax became quick friends with their pets, and was moping around when we got home because he clearly misses them! Could not recommend enough!

Lori is great with our cats. She doesn’t just stop by to feed them; she brushes them and plays with them too. She goes out of her way to make sure their routine is maintained as much as possible while we’re away and we greatly appreciate it.

Sean and Jill are great and Gwendolyn always looks forward to coming for a stay. I have a very tiny 4.5lb dog and very particular with whom I leave her with because of her size. I love the fact that they only take in small dogs as this tells me that they take the precautions needed to accommodate Gwendolyns size

From the moment I first contacted her, Yajaira's communication was exceptional. She provided a safe, attentive environment for my dog, sent me photos, gave my dog oral medicine (as requested) when she was scratching her ears. I am highly satisfied and recommend her without reservation. Will definitely use her again and steer my friends her way.

About: I've owned dogs all my life and have dog sat in some capacity for family and friends for the last 10 years. I love dogs and treat each like my own. I'm reliable, flexible, and ready to work on short notice during summer. I'm willing to stay and house sit if my schedule permits. I love going for walks and hikes with pups and am not afraid to roll around on the floor for some playtime. I understand how important your pets are and will treat them as you would! I am willing to administer medicine if necessary and am flexible to other needs of your pet. Look forward to meeting you furry baby(ies)! I am a full time teacher. During the week I can let animals out early mornings and then am usually out of work by 3. My weekends are usually free. I will abide by house rules for your pet at home. If you use gates or electric collars please let me know. Happy to bring them on walks if needed.

Nickimmy was great-totally recommend. She was super responsive when communicating about a nd treated Milo like he was her own family pet. My fiancé and I were very nervous to leave Milo with someone new to him, as we are anxious pet parents, but we both felt immediately comfortable leaving Milo in Nickimmy’s care. She provided frequent pictures and check ins, lots of walks and time outside, and she even comforted him when he woke up in the middle of the night howling bc he missed us! We will definitely leave Milo with Nickimmy again and can’t recommend her and her sweet family enough.

Maria kept me updated throughout the day with photos and thoughtful messages, including details about how he interacted with other dogs and how he did at bedtime while he was still being crate trained. Her communication gave me a lot of peace of mind and I could tell she genuinely cares about dogs and I would absolutely book with her again.
