“They are 100% my go to anytime I need somewhere my fur baby can stay . They sent numerous pictures and updates on how he was doing. They are kind and very informative . I cant stress enough how awesome they have been especially during our time of need. I dont want to use anyone but them for my dog.”
“Katya took great care of my energetic golden retriever and sent photos and videos! Would definitely recommend her and will definitely be booking again.”
“She did an amazing job taking care of our dog, Trixie. She pampered her with lots of love, attention, & treats. We recommend her to anyone who's looking for a dog sitter! :)”
“If I could have created the absolutely ideal, perfect sitter for my precious boy I don't think she would measure up to the total awesomeness of Sonja. Barley was cared for so incredibly well, blending in as a member of her family, that I was worried he might not want to come with me. Sonja was also incredibly communicative, sending me pictures, videos and updates daily. I had total peace of mind and could therefore enjoy my extended trip outside the country. While I hate being separated from my boy I'm actually looking forward to giving Barley another fun vacation at Sonja's house. Words are inadequate to express my overwhelming gratitude to Sonja and her family for their outstanding, loving care.”
“Lindsey was great with my boys an I appreciate her working with my crazy schedule. I would definitely recommend Lindsey an use her in the future. Thanks for taking such great care of my boys.”
“I recently had Laura watch my 100 lb Goldendoodle, Bogey, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the moment I picked him up, it was clear he had an amazing time—he didn’t even want to leave! Laura was fantastic about keeping me updated with daily pictures and videos, which really put my mind at ease. You could see in every photo that Bogey was happy, relaxed, and having a blast. Laura clearly knows how to make dogs feel loved and cared for. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter!”
“Clarissa is amazing! Great communication and even sent pictures during our time away! My crazy pup came home exhausted! She even taught her how to sleep without being in a crate or in the bed with us and she is doing well not messing in the house when we are resting! I am so grateful! We booked again and will continue to book every trip we can with her and her amazing family!”
“My girl Maria was amazing! So good I almost wanted her to keep my dogs longer! She’s very kind and her space has a great outdoor space and the dogs get to use a doggie door! Both my dogs seemed to be well behaved and happy to be there. She sends lots of pictures to let you know your furry friends are happy and healthy”
“Rachel and her daughter took extremely good care of my fur-baby. Unfortunately, during her stay, my puppy had a tummy bug. I could not have asked for more compassionate or kinder carers than this family. She looked after my baby like it was her own. Forever grateful that she received the care that she did from such an amazing family.”
“Winnae & Miguel took great care of my puppy "Harley". Usually, Harley parks at everyone, however she was at ease on her first visit. I appreciate the pictures sent to us during her time there. The experience was professional and they made it easy to do business. We will be a repeat customer!”

Definitely recommend using Kerri and her services for all your doggy sitting needs!”
“We had the pleasure of having Anitra care for our dogs over the last four days, and she was absolutely amazing to work with. She kept us updated regularly with sweet messages, photos, and videos of our fur babies, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Her communication was excellent—she was quick to respond to any messages and always made sure we felt informed and connected. Anitra was not only professional but also incredibly kind and thoughtful. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for dependable and loving pet care”

My Bisquit Boy had a beautiful 9 day stay with this sitter and she was amazing. She gave me updates every morning along with pictures. She was warm and welcoming and she took very good care of my Biscuit! Thank you so much! I will definitely use her again in the future.
Kate and her husband are our favorite sitters. So grateful they were able to watch the boys over the holidays, it really eased a lot of stress to know the pups were in good hands. Her pups are so great with mine and my boys feel right at home. The updates are great! Videos and photos daily. I can’t say enough how grateful I am the pups had friends and a great family to stay with over Christmas when I couldn’t be with them myself.
