Monica was pleasant and made sure to send updates while she watched my two dogs. I would recommend her to anyone in the area looking for a sitter.

Nicole took wonderful care our our dog, which made going on vacation so much easier. Our dog is old, with health problems (including incontinence), and we were so glad to find someone willing to sit him in their home. When we picked up our dog, Nicole had washed all the towels and bedding we had provided to help manage his incontinence. She went above and beyond in caring for him, and we really appreciated it. For people with younger, healthy dogs, Nicole has a large property with plenty of outdoor space. We highly recommend Nicole.

Many many thanks to Joy and Dan! I was anxious leaving Winston with someone I did not know but right away they put me at ease. We had our meet and greet and Winston took to one of their children immediately. During Winston’s stay, Joy and Dan sent photo updates - Winston was having a great time and had settled in well. My only concern was that Winston was having so much fun he wouldn’t want to come back home! I cannot recommend Joy and Dan highly enough and will definitely rebook, pending their availability.

So thankful for the great care my older dog received, especially with a last-minute holiday booking! They were incredibly kind, kept me updated, and made me feel totally at ease. I could tell my dog was comfortable and right at home. Would absolutely book again!

Jess was great! Very responsive with clear communication. Lucy was spoiled rotten with snuggles and outside time. Jess sent tons of pictures and kept us updated with how Lucy was getting along with her friends. She even dropped her off at our house at the end of the puppy slumber party. Highly highly recommend!

Nancy was great! Had our flight changed and Nancy was more than willing to take our dog a day early. Got regular updates with messages and pictures of how things were going. Put us at ease that everything was going well and let us enjoy our vacation.

April is the best! I bring my dog to her instead of leaving him with family because he loves her house and dogs so much. Great communication and clearly a massive dog lover.

I was so apprehensive about leaving my Nori with anyone, but to my surprise after leaving him with Bernice she quickly me down by sending me pics of Nori, throughout the day. Nori seemed so happy, and it made me feel at peace.

I can't imagine a better person to leave our Parker Boy with! Heather took the best care of our dog and sent pictures and videos to keep our minds at ease while we were apart from him. She made him feel like a part of the family and made sure to do whatever she could to make him comfortable. We would recommend Heather to anyone looking for a sitter for their furry friends!!

Leo and Mickey loved staying at Barbara's house. They said they felt right at home.( which may or may not be a good thing). They know if their human family goes away again they do not have to be afraid. If Barbara is home they are packing their things and going to her house!

Have booked with Jordan plenty of times over the past few years, and it’s dawned on me that I’ve never taken the time to leave a review. From the responsiveness, to the level of communication, to the level of care she’s affords your fur babies, to the last minute accommodations, words can’t express how appreciative I am, and how comfortable I am leaving my fur babies in her care. Hands down, 5 star service

This was my dog's 3rd stay with Angelo. He was treated like a King and was living his best life. The big thing I noticed is that when I took him back, he didn't hesitate getting out of the car, he looked forward to staying there.

This was my first time using Sharon and all went well. She sent photos and videos of Lily and took Lily on frequent walks. She was quick to respond to my texts. I really appreciate Sharon’s responsible and professional nature. And when I picked up Lily at the end of her stay, Sharon gifted her a bag of treats and toys and a thank you note! I will definitely use Sharon again.

I can’t recommend Nicole enough! She was extremely communicative and it was very obvious how great of a dog mom she is. I felt so happy knowing my baby was in her care. Moose had the best time!
