1. Craig R.

“Craig was so great with our hyper, anxious dog! He sent regular updates and photos and was very flexible when our travel plans changed at the last minute. His own dog is so calm, and was so sweet with ours as well. I highly recommend Craig—your dog will be in very good hands with him!”


2. Audrey C.

“Audrey was so good with our pup, Luna! She came back to us so happy and well cared for. She made a very last minute stressful change so much better! Thank you for opening your home to our girl!”


3. Kyle & Mariah H.

“Our pup had an amazing time! He seemed right at home and we had great communication throughout his stay. We would definitely reach out again if we need a sitter in the future!”


4. Lacey O.
“I’d recommend Lacey! I left my dog with her for a full week and she sent lots of photos and updates, which was much appreciated. Her kiddos are very sweet and were great with my dog as well! Thank you Lacey & Co.!”


5. Eliot J.


“Eliot was great! Her communication and regular updates were appreciated. It seemed like Buck and Pnut had a great stay. Would recommend Eliot for boarding!”


6. Rebecca A.

“First off, I do not generally add reviews but with Rebecca. I felt it was due. In all my years I’ve been fortunate enough I’ve never had to board a family member, but now circumstances have changed. Not only did I need to find someone I was comfortable with, but more important the board was a 8 week old rescue. Rebecca from the beginning was totally understanding to my concerns. When Bella was picked up, Rebecca took all the time to go over her routine making me comfortable that she was going to care for her as if she was her own. While I was away I received multiple pictures and texts daily on how she was doing. Rebecca went above and beyond and for that Im very thankful. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her services in the future”

8. Chelsea G.


“Chelsea and her family took such sweet care of our puppy, Sunday. It was the first time we’d left him for as long as we did, and our meet and greet put us completely at ease that he would be loved on well. She sent pictures and videos while we were gone that were much appreciated! Would highly recommend booking with Chelsea!”


9. Alissa B.

“Alissa took the best care of my dogs and they had a wonderful time and came home so happy. It was so nice to receive pictures and know they were getting the best care. I highly recommend!”

“Marcie was great and super understanding and flexible with our schedules. Definitely would recommend her if you are looking for someone to watch your furry friends!”


11. Skyler N.

“Skyler took great care of my 13 year dog while I was away on a work trip. She was flexible with drop off and pick up times, and she adjusted activity levels based upon how Mala was feeling each day. Overall, I think Mala had a great vacation with Skyler and would like to visit her again!”


12. Terry & Sheree J.

“We have used many dog sitters in the long life of our old dog and this was one of the best we have ever had. I so appreciated how very thorough they were at the meet & greet obtaining all the pertinent info needed about my dog, with notepad in hand, above and beyond what I would have remembered to impart. So I knew right away she would be in very good hands. Top of the line in knowledge about dogs, home, neighborhood, fenced in yard and conscientiousness. Paisley had a great stay. We are always grateful to have a home away from home for our girl that leaves us worry free about her care. Terry & Sheree are very responsive, shared photos to us, they walked her and made her feel right at home. We highly recommend them for your pets but please leave room for us to go back. Thanks Terry & Sheree. Hope you don't get so busy you can't fit us. We will be back!”


13. Danielle A.

“Danielle was absolutely amazing with not only Bella but staying in contact and keeping me updated often! Answered any questions and messaged me right away. Sent photos and videos,Bella looked so happy and having so much fun! I can't thank Danielle enough!”


14. Jennifer B.

“Luna’s new home away from home! She was so well cared for, it made it easier to be away. Jennifer was great about sending photos of all of their adventures, and keeping me updated. Luna can’t wait to go back 😊”


15. Grace G.


“Grace made sure Raz had plenty of exercise and a full belly! She had my little guy over night and he came back to me tuckered out enough to sleep the whole way home to Bangor! I would definitely suggest her as a sitter and request her services again !”


16. Christina R.

“Christina was amazing with our granddogger, Roxie. Roxie is elderly and has special needs and Christina handled all of her needs with care and compassion. It's nice to know that we can go away and leave Roxie in good hands. I highly recommend Christina.”
