“Had such a great experience boarding my pup with John! He was incredibly kind, communicative, and treated my pup like family. I got daily updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. Highly recommend John to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”

“Eric and his family were phenomenal with my highly energetic, easily bored, pup! It’s a little scary leaving your dog for a week, but Eddy was very well taken care during his stay! He updated us when needed, and assured us how well Eddy was doing. The communication and pictures of my dog helped ease the nerves and certainly assured us all was great! We will definitely be reaching out to Eric again the next time we head to NC, and I highly recommend Eric if you’re looking for a great dog sitter!”

“I never have to worry when I go out of town when she is taking care of my cat emily. She is an excellent caregiver. She has no problem giving oral medication. Emily loves to talk to her. She absolutely adores her pet sitter/boarder when her mommy is out of town. I really really appreciate her taking great great care of my baby girl.”

“Cooper had a great time during his stay! We felt very comfortable leaving him here during the week and will definitely be booking again the next time we are out of town!”

“Melanie and Addison treated our dogs just like their own. Because of this, I was able to actually enjoy vacation. They are amazing and our dogs were very well cared for.”

“We dropped off our dog, Alfie, on our way to the outerbanks as our Airbnb didn’t allow dogs and we are so glad we booked with Kristin. Alfie had so much fun playing at their home and Kristin made sure to keep us updated with photos throughout the entire trip.”

“Nicole is so awesome!! I feel so comfortable leaving my dog with her. This was our second time and he was so excited to see her- he just about ran into her house! Thank you Nicole for being amazing and so kind!”

“Sara provided awesome care for Josie, our Moyen Poodle! She took her into her own home and together with Sara's two dogs they all got along very well. Josie got a lttle anxious one day and gnawed a little bit of door casing, Sara was very understanding and more concerned about Josie than the gnaw marks. We would recommend Sara for anyone looking for a caring, compassionate person to look after the dog they love! Respectfully, Gordon & Janet Galligan”

“Courtney was absolutely amazing! From the moment we connected, they were responsive, professional, and clearly passionate about pups. They took incredible care of my girl Rosie, and I could tell right away that she was in great hands. I really appreciated the daily updates and photos — it gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Rosie looked so happy and comfortable the whole time. When I came back, everything was just as I left it, and my pet was calm, content, and clearly well-loved. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with Courtney and Kailee again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, caring pet care!”


“Took very good care of my fur baby!! He even had to think twice about leaving and coming home with me! I was almost offended but so glad he felt safe, loved and comfortable! She even went out her way to buy him a new bone when he finished all of his! Already booking her again for my next trip in a few weeks!”

“Duke,Scooby,and Brittany loved their stay with Jenny. They especially loved being able to go in and out as they wanted. Duke and Scooby enjoyed their supervised swim times to the pond. We got to see Duke and Scooby swim before we left. We knew they were going to enjoy their stay. Pictures showed they were being themselves doing what they wanted to do.”


“Theresa did a great job taking care of Asher. He got to hang with 3 other fellow canines & got to be a guest at her dog Maggie's birthday party 🥳🥳. She played ball & Frisbee with him & gave him much love. Got great updates & I felt very assured he was well taken care of She has a wonderful fenced in back yard the dogs can run to their hearts content.”

“OMG!!!! By far THE BEST EXPERIENCE I could ask for. Loved the transparency from the beginning! My Harmonie had the BEST time and I loved the pic mail received during her stay. Definitely will rebook when in town!!!!”

“Excellent communication! We are so happy we have a safe/caring environment to take our dog to when we go away for a few days. We received plenty of pictures and updates of how he was doing during his stay. We would definitely recommend to others whom are looking for a reliable place to board their pet. Thank you Sabrina!”


“Liz took care of my dog in her home overnight while I was moving us to a new house. All the change and chaos had my dog so anxious and confused, I thought a little vacation and some extra attention would help her feel less anxious. Liz was just what she needed! Right away in our meet and greet, my dog was relaxed and playful with Liz. During her stay, Liz sent me plenty of adorable pictures, kept me updated throughout the stay, and was very easy to communicate with. She was also flexible with time when I ended up with a dead battery and had to move things back a little. Most importantly, my dog came back relaxed and happy :) Thanks for making our move easier for Lucy and me!”

“Yet again my dogs had a lovely weekend with Kristin while I was out of town. They are both currently passed out at home from all the fun they had and I had 0 worries about them being taken care of while I was handling my travel hiccups.”

“Erin was an awesome sitter. She watched our golden retriever for a couple days and had a fantastic setup; Giant fenced in backyard with a pool and other dogs that got along really well. She updated us with pictures and was very easy to communicate with. Dog must have had a blast because she was exhausted when we picked her up. Will definitely return if in the OBX area!”
