We are very comfortable leaving our little guy with Crystal because we know that he will receive a lot of love and attention and he will be very happy staying with them. This was our 2nd time using Crystal and we will definitely use her again.

We were hesitant about leaving Max with anyone while we took a vacation. After meeting Carol we we were reassured. She really put us at ease by sending pictures and a video of Max out for a walk. He was well taken care of and we could relax and enjoy ourselves. We will definitely book with Carol again when we need a sitter for Max. Thank you!!

Patti stepped in to care for Destiny, as our regular sitter wasn't available when we needed the time away. She was fantastic! Although Destiny was homesick for us, she seemed to be in extremely capable hands with Patti. We loved the photos she shared with us and within one day really got a feeling of who our dog was... After back home , although thrilled to be back with us, think she also kinda missed her temporary placement with Patti. Would definitely recommend her!

About: I have always been a lover of animals. I grew up with cats, dogs, rabbits, guniea pigs, and hamsters. Every single animal I’ve had has been given the love they deserve. Giving them all their play time, I have a huge fenced in yard for dogs to run around in and play fetch. If pets need their own space, I can accommodate that. If you need me to take extra time out for them I can offer that as well! I’m here to help! I am a hairstylist by trade for 27 years and love what I do, I work part time to be home more with my children. Being a hairstylist, I love helping my clients look and feel good. That being said, I figured I can help people in other ways as well and being that I love animals, why not help people with their pets by taking care of them! I take my dog on daily walks, except for Tuesdays and Saturdays but those are the days I work in the salon, but my husband takes our dog out. She also will go to my mother's house in the summer to swim with us as she absolutely loves the pool! Being that I am home most of the week, watching dogs fits well into my schedule. I will treat other people's pets as if they were my own. As long as they are potty trained, I will allow them to walk freely in my home, I have a huge fenced in yard for them to run and play. As long as the weather is beautiful out, I will take them on walks as well with my family! Myself and my family will treat your pets as if they were ours! We will show them love the entire time they are with us!

About: I am a work from home dog mom and love my German Shorthaired Pointer, Remi. We go to the beach, park and go on neighborhood walks every day. I have the availability and capacity to have another dog to tag along. I have fostered dogs in the past and love helping a dog have a safe and comfortable place to stay! I work from home and take my dog for a walk every few hours or bring her to the beach or the park on my lunch break. Dogs have plenty of toys and comfortable places to relax and play while I work. Remi would love to keep your pup company! I have the room to have your dog set up however they need. If your pup is crate trained, I have a spare one to set up for them with all the comfy things needed to put in it. I have lots of treats and toys for pups to play with and a safe, dog-friendly neighborhood to walk them in.

Luz, and her family, are exceptional. I will be requesting her every time we need a sitter for my dog. She was attentive and affectionate. My dog Maggie is rarely without us because the few times we have left her with others she gets very depressed. For the first time ever Maggie was actually missing her sitter. She laid by the door when we got home waiting for , what we now call, her other family. She was made to feel at home. I highly recommend Luz to anyone who has a furry family member that they want to ensure is safe, secure, and happy.

Scott and his family were the best. Our puppy loved her stay! We would highly recommend Scott. He's very personable and has everything you need to feel comfortable and everything your dog needs to be well taken care of. He went the extra mile for our puppy and let her sleep with him because at the time she wasn't sleeping in a crate. We'll be using Scott again.

This woman is so awesome with dogs. She’s like a dog whisperer. We have two Boston terriers, and sometimes they can be anxious. This was not the case this day. Cara attended to their names in a professional and caring manner and was a pleasure to interact with. She kept excellent care of our dogs in her home with her husband and small dog peanut. Great experience.!!!!!!
