“From the moment we met Jane, we knew our fur baby was in the best hands. She sent pictures in the morning and in the evening took him on various doggy trips. He got walks multiple times a day, and always look content in his pictures. We feel grateful that we found such a great giver of love for our pooch. We recommend Jane highly for your pooches dog sitting needs!”

Julie was wonderful as always! Murphy had the best time for the 2 weeks over the holidays with lots of videos, pictures, and updates. During the stay, Murphy had a senior moment but Julie took care of him no problem. She was also very flexible and communicative when my flight home was delayed 5 hours. Julie is dependable, experienced, and such a great pet companion. Highly recommend!

This was the first time leaving my 4 month old puppy with someone and I was absolutely anxious and terrified. Monica agreed to pre-meet n greet where she bonded with Reggie instantly. During my trip she was so communicative and never made me feel bad about my constant checking in. She sent photos and videos multiple times and day and gave updates on his potty training. As a puppy, he did have an accident or two in her house, but she was completely understanding about it. Overall her positive attitude and sweet demeanor made my feel better than I thought I would, leaving my baby behind for the first time. 100% would use her again and recommend her to anyone with a puppy or dog needing special care and love. Thank you, Monica!

We feel so comfortable leaving our blind dog with Nathan. He took very good care of her - getting her settled and comfortable inside and helping her navigate steps, avoid salt, and gear up for cold temperatures outside. He was easy to schedule with and was quick to respond to questions.

Markaya was wonderful. Watched our dog with less than a week notice. She had a cat and was so kind and let me bring our dog to meet her before the stay for my peace of mind. Our pup was very well taken care of during his time with Markaya. Would love to have her watch our dog again.

Anabelle was great with our dog. She kept us up-to-date on everything. We got great photos and videos about our dog's three night stay. She made it a point to ensure our high anxiety dog felt comfortable in a new place. We will definitely be reaching out again when we have to go out of town Thanks!

I highly recommend Nicole! She’s my go to sitter and always takes such good care of Murphy with lots of updates and pictures. She responds quickly and is very flexible which came in handy when my flight was delayed over an hour, delaying Murphy’s pick up. Thank you Nicole!
