“Amanda and her family were amazing with our dog Mia. They took care of her like one of their own dogs. If you want to come back to a healthy and happy puppy Amanda is your dog sitter.”
“Jen and Jon were wonderful sitters for our dog. This was the first time leaving her with a sitter and they made me feel very comfortable. I could tell Tootsie was well taken care of and receiving lots of love with each daily update. Drop off and pick up was easy and Jen responded quickly to any questions I had.”

“I am so grateful for Isabel's care of Oliver! Oliver was in good hands with her. Isabel helped take care of Oliver during a difficult time of my life. I feel incredibly blessed to have had a petsitter like her and did not need to worry about Oliver during my sickness. She was very responsive and great to work with. Oliver always comes back happy and healthy.”

“Amanda is TRULY a blessing!! This is the longest we've ever been without our Black Lab Pup, Spade, and he seemed to be as comfortable as ever. Not a single worry or concern. She sent pics and updates and it was like he was at his home away from home. I'd recommend Amanda without question to anyone!”
“Debra took great care of our two dogs, Mia & Apollo, over the Christmas weekend. Debra & her husband were very accommodating as it was such a last minute booking due to our original sitter cancelling on us. They have a massive back yard that our pups loved zooming around in. Would definitely recommend!”
“Destiny and Bianca went above and beyond for my little pup. I was nervous about leaving him for a week, and they eased my mind with first a meet-and-greet to get to know one another, and then during the stay, by sending me lots of pictures and videos. When Covid changed my travel plans, they graciously kept him for even longer and provided excellent care in terrible weather. I would absolutely hire them again and recommend them to anyone looking for great dog sitters!”
“Joseph was amazing! Joseph went above and beyond taking care of my two dogs. He sent me photos and video’s daily and alerted me when my Georgia was scratching a bit and followed up by cleaning her ears and then bathed them. I would absolutely recommend Joseph and his dogs are the sweetest.”

Pipa is a nervous girl especially around strangers but Ciara assured that everything would be okay during her stay and it was! Within a few hours Pipa was comfortable and cuddled up with her on the couch! Ciara sends plenty of updates (pictures, videos) and responds quickly if you need accommodations made.

Taylor was amazing!!!!!! She is so friendly and kind. Always available to answer any questions and reply’s promptly. Great communication, I never worried about how my dog was doing. The whole process was easy and convenient. From the booking, meet and greet to drop off and pick up. I would definitely be reaching out again when we go out of town. Thank you for all the love you gave him while we were gone! :)
Savanna took care of our 2 frenchies over memorial day weekend! It was our first time leaving them with a sitter so we were naturally nervous. She was very communicative and attentive to their needs which put us fully at ease! She had no problem dealing with their quirks and cleaning up after them- They can be a handful as they were rescues. We will absolutely reach out to rebook with her in the future.
Austin was amazing with my two dogs! He was so attentive and spent lots of time outdoors with them! I do not like to leave them with anyone, and he made me feel comfortable right away and that’s huge for me! My dogs come home exhausted after a 3 day stay with Austin! He sent so many pictures and it made me happy to know that he took the time and effort with watching them and keeping them safe. He listened to every detail I messaged him about and had so much patience, especially knowing I was nervous. Our flight was delayed and he had no problem with keeping them for an extra time period! My dogs came home super happy and tired.
Taylor and Ryan were wonderful. My Dogs were very happy and healthy when we picked them up. Taylor kept me well informed when were away as to how they were doing. The yard is perfect for dogs and I had now worries of them getting free. Taylor and Ryan made our vacation worry free. Sherrie
