“Ashley was wonderful I'm always worried with my dog but he was very content when I came to pick him up. She was even very flexible when I had to adjust my time. Very professional will definitely use again.”


“We are so thankful Laurie was able to take in Lola when our original plans fell through. She sent us daily updates about how she was doing and took extra care when Lola was having a hard time adjusting. I can tell our girl enjoyed her own vacation while we were on ours and it relieved a lot of our initial anxiety about leaving her behind. Thank you Laurie!!”

“My fur babies had a wonderful stay with Taylor. She is so kind, even my sensitive pup, June warmed up to her instantly! Taylor was very flexible when our pickup /drop off times shifted and checked in during the visit to let me know the puppies we doing good. Highly recommend Taylor for anyone looking to have a pet sitter they can trust. Thank you so much Taylor! We will book again with you soon! ☺️”

“Piper loves going to Brittany's home! Teddy Bear and her other guests are like a vacation for our baby while we’re on ours. Brittany cares for Piper as if she were her own, and sends us photos and updates so we don’t worry! Love Brittany and highly recommend her!”



“Moving to a new city, it is always hard and slightly scary to find a new sitter for my boys. I’m so glad we found Laney! She’s wonderful and easy to work with! We will definitely be going back if she’ll have my boys again!!”


“Great experience. We left two dogs overnight. We had an emergency out of state and needed to leave our two dog overnight and most of the next day. Nathen was very accommodating with the last minute request. Our girls had never been left before, but Nathen provided updates and picture to help ease my anxiety, in an already stressful situation. The girls were happy and taken care of. Will recommend Nathen to friends. If needed will use him again.”


“Misti made sure I was at ease leaving my high-energy dog for several days. She sent lots of pictures and kept me updated on Zoe’s stay! She set up a meet and greet, so we could get to know each other and talk about Zoe’s needs and behavior. I am so grateful to find someone who will love and care for my dog the same way I would. We will definitely be back!”


“Kaylie was fantastic with our King Charles. He has a little anxiety and she won him over within two minutes of meeting him. She was very easy to work with. Great communication. We were visiting Kansas City and needed a dog sitter. I highly recommend Kaylie, and will use her again if we are in the area!”


“Colin was great!!! We came into town for our wedding and didn’t want to leave our guy at a boarding facility so we found Colin and our dog had a great time!! Colin was always responsive and sent photos to one of my bridesmaids all weekend as he knew I was going to be crazy busy getting married. Our dog had the best time going on walks, playing with tennis balls, and being a couch potato! Would recommend him to anyone and everyone needing a clean, safe, and playful place to stay!”
