“Teddy had such a great time with Phoebe, Ben, and their sweet dog July! He usually sticks to his humans and doesn’t hang out much with other dogs, but July kept him great company during his 3-day stay. Phoebe was super nice and sent us daily pics of Teddy, which made us so happy. We’ll definitely have Teddy stay with Phoebe again!”
“Alan was so helpful in accommodating our last minute drop-off and pick-up schedule changes. We were provided updates with accompanying pictures of Murphy throughout our entire trip and felt he was in good hands. We would love to have Murphy be a repeat client. Thank you for all your help and for taking such good care of our guy.”
“Can’t begin to explain how amazing Liz and the rest of her family were with my two boys ❤️. I knew as soon as we met the boys were going to love her. Liz is very cheerful, loving and attentive. She did an amazing job at keeping me up to date and most importantly making sure my boys felt at home and safe. I received daily pictures which included dj and beans taking car rides, walks, sleeping and just hanging with the family. If you love your furry companions as much as I do, book with Liz, you won’t be disappointed ❤️”
“Our pup has had several overnight stays including last one for 10 days. He is very happy to be there! (Also, Alex was very accommodating with a schedule change which was awesome!)”
“Yulia was very sweet and kind; and amazing with Kash. I was a bit nervous as this was his first leaving him with a sitter for the weekend but surprisingly he did great. And I believe it was how Yulia treated him so he felt safe. Definitely will rebook☺️☺️!!”
“Heather is so sweet & fantastic. She took such good care of my pups. I appreciated her thoughtful communication and compassion for the doggos. I will certainly come back to her again and will recommend her to my friends & family. She's amazing & I'm so grateful to have connected with her!”
“Jessica took excellent care of my dog! Her communication was excellent. She texted questions about care when needed, and sent cute photos regularly. I would book with her again.”
“My Stormie so enjoyed her stay with Laura! Stormie is a very anxious dog but she bonded with Laura quickly. I received tons of pics of Stormie on walks, relaxing in the house and doing zoomies in the paddock. Made me very happy, I will be leaving Stormie with Laura again soon.”
“Maddy was so wonderful with my dog Jester!! We got tons of pictures and videos and you could tell how happy Jester was staying there. I was assured the whole time that my dog was well taken care of. We will use her again!”
“Here’s a smoother version that keeps your meaning but sounds a bit more polished: Dina was wonderful with my dog! It was the first time I had ever left him with a sitter, so I was very anxious. She checked in regularly and sent multiple pictures of him happy, belly up, and cuddling with them, which really put my mind at ease. My dog has allergies and follows a strict prescription diet, and Dina was very attentive to all of his needs. I would definitely recommend her and would happily use her services again!”
“Kim was our pug’s best friend for 9 days. She was very kind and caring to our Pug and very reassuring and communicative with us throughout his stay. She sent us pics of what they were up to every day and our dog calm back to us calm and happy. Would highly recommend!”
“Sara was very welcoming for our first time dog’s stay. She was great, she is real dog lover! Her communication with us was excellent. Nessa came back home happy and full of energies ?. Highly recommended.”
“Keith (and his wife) were phenomenal dogsitters for our two-year-old goldendoodle pup who stayed with them this past weekend, while we attended a wedding out of state. Keith kept us updated with many photos and updates during Teddy’s stay, which put my mind at ease as a very attached dog mom :) . We will definitely book with Keith again in the future!”
“Yi was fabulous! She took great care of our ragdoll kitten, Pudding. She is incredibly responsive and sends multiple pictures and videos every day. I would highly recommend her and look forward to booking again in the future!”
“Nicole was awesome. When we first met you could tell she is an animal lover.She sent us pictures of Rainbow enjoying her time with her. She made us feel at ease since we were worried about leaving our dog with someone she didn't know for the first time. I would highly recommend booking with Nicole”
“Peggy helped us out in a pinch and was wonderful with our dogs! We received daily photos and updates on how they were doing, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely use her again!”

Gabriel was the perfect match for my rambunctious dog, Bluey, who doesn’t trust many people and requires a lot of attention! From the start, Gabriel was confident, trustworthy, and reassuring, which made me feel completely at ease leaving Bluey in his care for 10 days. I really appreciated his excellent communication, regular photos and videos, and, most importantly, his transparency in describing Bluey’s behavior. It was clear that he genuinely understood her personality and needs and handled her with confidence and care. I would absolutely recommend Gabriel to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and honest dog sitter. We would happily book him again!
Sophia was amazing and went above and beyond to take care of our cat, Simon! Our litter box broke and she promptly got us a new cover. Sophia sent lots of pictures and was so easy to coordinate with. I know our kitty is missing her now that he is back home. Sophia will absolutely be our go to cat sitter!
Chelsea goes above and beyond with our Lumos. He loves staying with her and is well cared for and loved. We don't worry at all when we are on vacation and Lumos is with Chelsea. We love receiving photos of him every day. Highly recommend Chelsea (and her pup, Paisley!)
Melissa is wonderful! We liked her so much that we rebooked with her within a week of picking up our Charlie after a 3 week stay. Charlie had just been diagnosed with hip dysplasia, so we were a little reticent to leave him. Melissa was nothing short of a dog whisperer! She knew just what to do! She sent photos every day, which really put us at ease. Don’t hesitate to leave your fur baby with Melissa! She’s the best!!
