2. Wendy V.

“Wendy was outstanding. She was appropriately communicative and kept me updated on how my dog was doing. My dog was a bit anxious the first day and Wendy was patient and caring with him. Also, my plane got back late and Wendy was understanding. Cannot recommend highly enough”

“Andrea and her family took great care of our 13 year old Benny. He was just as spoiled there as he is at home. He got to go for walks and rides on the golf cart. He felt at home with them.”




8. Deana F.


“Deana was so sweet and you can tell she really loves dogs!! We got feedback and pictures every day with updates regarding how he slept, how he ate and how many walks they did. Her own dogs are very accepting of new visitors (both human amd canine) ? I would recommend Deana to anyone who needs their pet well taken care of like it was her own!”

“Pandi clearly had a great time with Piper, Bruno, Stephany, and her daughter. I could tell because she was sad to leave ? Steph took good care of our little derp, rescued us when our sitter bailed, and was really good with communication while we were gone. We are probably gonna ditch our old sitter and call steph first from here on out. THANK YOUUUU! -Mike, Olivia, and Pandi”
