“Our first time boarding our Daisy. Katie was great with communication. The meet and greet before booking was great. Highly recommend her and would definitely use this service again!”
“Kyla was incredible!! From the initial contact to pickup, she was friendly and professional. She took the time to know my dog’s needs and preferences. She sent me regular updates and photos of my pup, which put me at ease while I was away! I highly recommend Kyla for a trustworthy and caring place for their dog. I’ll definitely be booking again!”
“Manuel was so good to my baby Luna!!! He agreed to a last minute booking for me during a week long vacation. He sent daily photos and updates and was very responsive to messages throughout her stay. We will DEFINITELY book with him again!”
“Megan did a great job with Winston - an eight month old Miniature Schnauzer puppy with plenty of energy. She is very patient, caring, and easy to coordinate with. I will definitely leverage her services again.”
“Mercedes was wonderful. There was a timely drop-off and pickup, she provided regular updates with pictures, and not to mention she made me cookies! I’ll be using her again and my dog loved her and her family!”
“Kendra came through for me big time when I was going on a 10-day vacation and my regular sitter and niece could not keep Zoe. She did everything possible to calm my nerves and soothe my fears with this being the longest period of time away from my baby. She provided daily (and during the first few days 3-4 times per day) updates with photos. She's very caring and was an amazing sitter for Zoe. I'll most definitely be calling her in the future.”
“We would highly recommend Candace and Steve. Dexter is very attached to us and we were a bit worried about how things would go. From the meet and greet to the full 9 day stay, things went more smoothly than we could have imagined. Dexter was well cared for and content. Candace sent video clips often and we were so surprised to see how well he adjusted. He even made a new friend- Pumpkin! We can't thank Candace and Steve enough for taking care of our guy and allowing us to have a very relaxing and much needed family vacation.”
“Matt and Leslie were amazing with Gunnar. He seemed to have a wonderful time. They were very communicative and send pics and videos daily. Their dog, Cooper, was an absolute sweetheart and was very easy going (didn’t even seem to mind when Gunnar stole some toys). I would highly recommend them!”
“I have never let anyone watch my dog overnight but when I met Barbara for a meet and greet I felt very comfortable with her and her love and knowledge of dogs, especially pit bulls put my mind at ease. She was very communicative and sent pictures and videos to assure me that Lily was having a great time and Barbara and her family enjoyed keeping Lily company. I have an upcoming trip which I’ll be gone for 9 days and this really puts my mind at ease knowing Lily will be in good hands. I would recommend Barbara to others.”
“Tonisha is very kind, flexible, responsive. I missed my drop off window and she was very gracious. She shared daily photos and asked about Langston’s behaviors to ensure he was safe i.e.going on walks, etc. If possible, we hope to work with her again.”
“Ann and her family were gracious to care for Bowie last minute. Very welcoming, I felt so comfortable leaving him in their hands. She was very responsive, sent pictures, and I was happy Bowie had some other dogs to play with! Thank you SO much!!!”
“Shirley is super sitter. Sent me cool slo mo vid of my pooch playing tricks. I was traveling thru and wanted to go to show in Chicago. She came to motel and picked up Bella. Highly recommend Shirley !!”
“Kori obviously had a great time at Jim’s. Jim is very organized and attended to my senior dog’s needs well in the quiet and relaxed environment she needs. I would feel comfortable having Kori stay with Jim again.”
“I can't say enough great things about Susseth and the care she provided for our dog. Like many pet owners, my dogs mean the world to me and it takes a lot for me to trust someone with them. Susseth cared for my dogs as if he were her own. She is extremely professional, responsible, and caring. She is very flexible and reliable and has made my life much easier. Her scheduling easy and flexible and she provides very personalized care- easy to reach and gives updates, photos, and video- which makes us feel at ease. I highly recommend Susseth to anyone looking for a pet services. Hoping to use Susseths services in the near future !”
“Guillermina took very good care of my chicle! She sent me photos and videos! I felt very comfortable having her take care of him! Definitely recommendable. 10/10”
“Liliana and her family gave me such peace of mind to leave my Whiskey in their care. The initial visit with the family in their beautiful home was so warm and friendly. And while I was away, I was so grateful for the updates and pics throughout each day. Whiskey got attached to one of Liliana’s teenage daughters. So sweet!”
“Jeff is an amazing sitter! Super flexible, reliable, great with our pup and goes the extra mile. He responds super quickly absolutely is gateway to work with. Highly recommend!”
“Matt and his family took such wonderful care of Bean! He provided regular updates and pictures which was much appreciated. Matt was also very flexible and understanding with pickup/drop off times. Bean had a great time and came home a very tired, happy boy. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Matt! Highly recommend as he will love your pup like it’s his own.”
“Beverly was wonderful! She was very accommodating to my schedule and very attentive to Kobe. She had a large fenced yard for Kobe to run & play. And, he got a chance to socialize with other dogs. Beverly also sent frequent updates & pics during Kobe’s stay, so we could be assured he was enjoying his stay. I would definitely use Beverly again! And, Kobe has a new friend for life.”
“Elizabeth was very prompt with her updates on Bandie’s stay. I was pleased that she had the opportunity to play with other dogs in a well structured environment. She was well fed and well rested when we picked her up. We received numerous pictures of her having a great time while we were away for the week. All of Bandie’s items were returned in great condition and those that weren’t, we expected Bandie to beat them up. We have already started discussions with Elizabeth to watch Bandie again since we were so happy with her work.”
