“Wonderful experience with Tish! She took great care of our dog Zeva and provided wonderful updates while we were away. Will definitely be leaving Zeva with Tish the next time we are out of town!”
“We are so grateful to have found Echo to watch our dog while we were out of town! Echo kept us updated on all the fun our dog was having, with pictures and text messages. Echo and her family played with our dog, took her for walks and spent time with her. The communication between us was perfect and she was so flexible with scheduling. And so friendly too! I highly recommend her.”
“Brandi & her family took great care of my pup over the holidays! Brandi was very communicative, sent lots of photos and was accommodating when I had changes in booking dates/times. I’d be happy to reach out for boarding needs in the future !”
“Rocky loves to stay at Crista’s place! So much so that for the first time he didn’t even want to go back home with me!! Made me feel great that Crista and her family treat him so well that he wanted to stay!!”
“Amanda was super communicative and did everything I asked for! Her dog got along with mine and she was so sweet to my boy. Thank you Amanda and I'll be rebooking for sure!!!”
“Alora took great care of Dude! She sent several pictures and an update daily that showed her kids playing with Dude and taking him for walks. I have no doubt that he was taken well care of during our vacation. I would recommend Alora to w.”
“Brittany did a great job taking care of our pups while we were away. She kept us up to date on how they were doing while we were out. We were most pleased by the facilities for the dogs as they were able to be social with each other and with other dogs rather than constrained within individual kennels. This was a big deal for us, especially for such a long stay.”
“Jessica is an amazing person and has great energy - I had no concerns about her taking care of my pup in her own home for a few days. From the pictures Jessica sent and the long looks at the door once my dog was home, it looks like it was a blast and she's excited to stay with Jessica again in the future. Thank you, Jessica!”
“Cheryse and her family took such great care of our dog. She was incredibly responsive, communicative, and attentive to our dog's needs. You can tell that she lovingly took care of our dog and made us feel at ease being away! I will 100% book her again in the future!”
“I hate leaving Barkley when he is out of town but he seems really happy when he stays with Megan. She sends picture updates and it’s nice to know he is well taken care of and loved while we are out of town.”
“Stephanie Was wonderful. I loved all the pictures she sent and My Winston was having a blast. I would definitely book with Stephanie again and highly recommend her. My Winston was so worn out when he got home which means he had a blast.”
“Justin is an incredibly attentive and interactive participant in our dogs lives. He took the time to understand Iggy’s quirks and took it upon himself to work with her independently to become more confident and socialized with his dog and other dogs. I am so grateful for his contribution to her life and would trust him with any animal moving forward. He is also a welcome guest in my home and as a friend. Consider him your fur babies bestie and let him handle the rest. He will be sure to take them on walks, give them all them love, and care for them as if they were his own. He truly connects with them and as parents, that’s all we really hope to have out of a sitter. A 10/10 recommendation for Justin!”
“Nancy made our little one feel right at home. Her place is quiet and cozy. Since she only sits one dog at a time, we knew our anxious doggo would be perfectly happy staying with her. She sent us pictures and videos of Koah as well which made us feel comfortable leaving him for the long weekend. We will definitely work with Nancy again!”
“Jodi B. worked out great! She was kind and also flexible working with my dogs pick up and drop off schedule. I could tell my pup enjoyed her stay. I will use Jodi B.in the future for sure!”
“Crystal was so helpful during the entire process. She let me come by her house a week prior and introduce my dogs to her and see her home. She was quick to respond and VERY accommodating to our needs for drop off and pickup. We have not left our pups with anyone except family and were very nervous to go on our 6 day trip. Crystal not only eased our nerves but also was amazing to keep our puppies calm during their stay. Any time I reached out she quickly responded with an update. It was SO NICE to be able to go on a vacation and not have to worry if our dogs were okay. Blue and Molly will definitely go stay at her house again :)”
“Pam did a wonderful job taking care Bailey, we can tell she has a real heart for animals and it put our mind at ease knowing she was taking care of Bailey and sending us frequent updates.”
“My Bleu had a great time hanging with George and Ginger! He ran straight into their fenced in yard as soon as I let him out of the car and was exhausted when I got him home. He spent a long weekend with them while I went on a bike ride. I would definitely trust him to keep my boy anytime.”
“I’m so grateful for Keli. She’s the absolute best dog sitter and human in Chattanooga!! I’m able to enjoy time away from my baby without any stress because I know she’s in the best hands and genuinely cares.”
