“Patrick did a great job of taking care of our precious Rocket. He sent us pictures almost daily of him just chilling and playing with Sophie. It was like our dog was on his own vacation while we were on ours! Everything was easy and smooth. Highly recommend him!”
“Ulunma and her family took wonderful care of Buddy. She was so sweet to send pictures of him during his stay. We’ll definitely request her and her family to watch Buddy in the future. Thanks Ulunma!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! From the start, Tierra was incredibly considerate of our dog’s routine and needs. We loved getting the daily updates and photos—it really put our minds at ease while we were away. It was clear our dog felt right at home at her place and was treated like family. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Cara is amazing!! We have two reactive dogs, and I was concerned that they would not warm up to a caregiver. Cara was patient and they warmed right up to her. She took great care of them and provided me with daily updates. She took them on walks, let them explore outside, and provided a comforting space for them to lounge and rest. I highly recommend Cara.”
“5 stars all the way! Jeff and his family are wonderful! Our pup is shy and skittish of new people but Jeff and family quickly put her at ease. Even better, I got loads of picture updates. My pup was loved and cared for and had a great stay! My pup will definitely be back!”
“Mariola took wonderful care of our dog while we were out of town on vacation. Her home setting for a few small dogs worked out well for our small, sweet, and shy cavapoo. We appreciated the periodic updates she provided about our dog during our trip as well.”
“Kelly was a wonderful and loving caregiver for our dog, and she kept us updated with many pics, photos, and messages. Our dog seemed really relaxed and happy when we picked her up. She deserves 6 stars out of five.”
“I can’t recommend Robert (and Brian) too highly! He is loving affectionate and attentive. He took my dog Poppy for long walks every day and made great effort to understand and accommodate her foibles. He is a dog whisperer! Thank you”
“I've booked Danielle twice now for my dog, and I am quite picky about who I'm willing to leave him with. She took great care of him, and I will call her next time I need to leave town. I appreciated getting photos of him, and even a video. Thank you!”
“Eiko and her family were wonderful! My boy Valentino was very well taken care of and Eiko gave me peace of mind while I was off the grid camping/fishing with minimal reception. She provided daily updates so when I did get reception it provided me with comfort because Valentino has never been away from me. He was calm but happy to see me when I picked him up and you could tell he was well taken care of. Eiko and her family are my go to if/ when I need them again!”
“Valerie was wonderful with our dog Sadie! She was attentive and very detail oriented. Her only concern was Sadie. She was extremely accomodating to our unique situation. Sadie stayed with our friend prior to Valerie's assigned position and she picked up Sadie from our friends house! The transition went smoothly and everyone was happy. I also appeciated that Valerie meet us at our house with Sadie and her belongings when we returned from our Thanksgiving vacation. I would definately reccommend Valerie :)”
“Awesome sitter! Took care of my guy for a few days, sent photos of my guy on walks, playing, sleeping on the couch. Clearly a household of dog lovers who go above and beyond to make sure your pup feels cared for and loved. My guy is a snuggle bug and I got plenty of photos of him snuggling with various members of the family. Made me happy and took the stress out of boarding my dog, also has the best rates locally. Check him out, great guy, family man, dog lover, you wont be disappointed!”
“Rachel did an amazing job taking care of our three-year old high-energy labrador! He was in very good hands with Rachel and her loving family. Our dog seemed to get along with their family dog and the kids. We'd definitely recommend Rachel!”
“Chad was caring and patient with my dog, and he was very responsive to my messages. He was able to stay home with her and provided regular updates, and it gave me peace of mind that she was in good hands while my husband and I were at our wedding.”
“Sharon was wonderful. She was very understanding of my dogs separation anxiety and really went out of her way to make sure he was able to settle. Sent lots of photos and updates!”
“Maya (Anchisa) was an exceptional sitter for our furry son. We took a 5 day family vacation and she watched our 17 lb dog. Maya sent multiple updates every day and seemed to like taking as many photos and videos of our little guy as we do! We feel very comfortable trusting Maya with our dog.”
“Always such a wonderful stay with Megan and Jenny! We only had one visit before this one and our pup pulled me to their door from the car. Receiving pics throughout the day was so reassuring and sweet. Thank you ❤️”

Rohun and family provided the best care for my Bernese mountain dog! Her needs have changed since she is getting older, and she is on a medication schedule. I felt very confident and reassured knowing how responsible and responsive Rohun is to my requests and my dog’s needs. I will continue to book this pet sitter with complete confidence.
