Bessie had a fantastic overnight stay with Shannan over Memorial Day weekend. Shannan provided helpful updates, was easy to communicate with, and showed our dog so much love!

Had a good experience. She watches multiple dogs at a time which is nice because your pup has friends to play with! Easy to communicate with as well!

Tamisha was a big help to me over Thanksgiving with Peaches. I was nervous same as Peaches but you could tell she relaxed and had a good time with her. I really appreciated the pictures and her flow with my schedule.

Jennifer is absolutely AMAZING! While I was cruising last week for my birthday, she took incredible care of my dog Cash, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She kept me updated with photos and videos, which gave me total peace of mind and showed just how much fun Cash was having. It truly felt like Cash became part of her family — a real home away from home. They played games, spent quality time together, and it was obvious he was loved and well cared for every single day. I’m so grateful to Jen and her family for their warmth, hospitality, and genuine care. Jennifer goes above and beyond to meet (and exceed!) expectations. She’s fantastic with animals, attentive, and incredibly kind. For any dog sitting, boarding, or pet care needs, I highly recommend Jen without hesitation. She is absolutely the best! 🐾💙

Amy was able to sit for my dog Ivy for four days on very short notice. She was very accommodating and really want the extra mile to work with me on schedule. She has a lovely home with a nice fenced backyard for your pup. Her fur baby Roxy is such a sweetheart and immediately was friendly with my 100 pound dog. Amy was amazing at sending me updates and pictures during Ivy’s stay. I would 100% use her again in the future!

If I could give 10 stars I would! Our boy stayed with Jamie 2 times in one week and he had the best time! Both times he came home, she gave a treat bag for him. And on our last stay she even included a treat for our twin toddlers. The sweetest human I have come in contact with. 10/10 would recommend!

Madison and her sister were so great with our boys! Great back yard and we loved all the picture updates! No doubt in our minds that they were very loved and taken care of during our week vacation. So happy our boys now have a ‘home away from home’ :)

Leslie was great with my dog during our 5 day vacation. My dog was not happy about being separated from his people and his home. He whined, paced and scratched at the doors the first night and Leslie even slept on the couch with him to help put him at ease. She let him acclimate at his own pace and was very patient. He did eventually settle in and start enjoying his time with her family. It was nice to know that he was in a safe and loving space while we were away and for that I am grateful. I would definitely recommend Leslie when it comes to caring for your furry family members.

This couple were great dog sitters for me. I didn’t have to worry about the safety of my dogs or their welfare. They sent me regular pictures which made me very happy. I think my dogs were even better behaved after being there a while than they were when I dropped them off!

Hallie was awesome with our dog for a long weekend trip. She has a nice clean home with a fenced in yard. We felt really comfortable the whole time and did not worry about Foss at all. He did great with her pups and it’s obvious she cares so much about our dog’s well-being which is exactly what we want when leaving our dog with someone. She was quick to respond to all of our messages, too.

If I could give more than five stars, I would! Denise and her family kept our boys for twelve days and took such great care of them. We got lots of pictures of them being loved on and snuggled. It made us so happy to know that they were comfortable, safe, and happy while we were away. Our dogs’ medications and supplements were not an issue either. We wholeheartedly recommend Denise to anyone who is looking for a home away from home for their dogs.

Angie was wonderful with our one year old mini bernedoodle Reggie. This was only the second time he stayed in someone’s house and the first time with Angie ! She’s a happy, very positive person and gave Reggie lots of TLC while we were away. She also had to administer pills to him and she wasn’t bothered by that at all. We plan to use her services again in January 2026.

Jill and her family are amazing. I was nervous about leaving my fur babies with someone they didn’t know. But Jill and her family took care of them as their own. Tonight I booked them again and my dogs went right in and seemed to be at home. I highly recommend her for your fur baby
