1. Mollie C.
“Mollie’s beautiful enclosed farm setting was the perfect place for Yahtzee to stay and run and play while we were gone. We came home to a tired, happy pup who’s still sound asleep! A pretty country drive convenient from the highway. We will be very happy to have Mollie watch our dog again.”
2. Susannah & Richard D.
“Susanna and family were amazing with my almost 3 year old Cocker Spaniel. They knew exactly what to do, the right amount of exercise, naps/chill time and play. He has never been so content and relaxed after coming home from being away! Highly recommend!”
3. Lindsay & Cory L.
“Lisa was quick to respond and took care of my dog Gia like it was one of her own! She’s very flexible and reliable, and I felt very reassured having her watch my dog while I was out of town. I highly recommend her services.”
4. Alex L.
“Our dogs loved it at Alex and Bri's home. The pups are usually anxious when we leave but they made themselves right at home. They loved the new grass put in their large backyard, found their favorite spot on their couch and got plenty of snuggles. We were updated constantly with plenty of pictures which assured us that they were being very well taken care of. We booked our next stay with them before we even picked them up. I highly recommend Alex and Bri!”
5. Caleb S.
“We are very thankful for Caleb! Knowing you dog is safe and having a good time makes time away much more enjoyable. Caleb is our go to evertime we travel.”
6. Heather & Calob James D.
“Heather is amazing. She takes care of my pet Bruno when my family and I need to go out of town. The last time we were at a dance competition we arrived late to pick up our little Bruno. She was so understanding. Heather is the BEST!!!”
7. Dane T.
“Dane was great with my differently abled Goldendoodle. Jupiter is looking forward to his next visit, which is already booked. A very big “Thank you” to Dane. He was very communicative, kind, and my pup loved him.”
8. Lisa H.
“Lisa sent me photos and videos of Minnie and kept me updated during her visit. I could tell Minnie was very comfortable with her from our first meet up. I would definitely recommend her and will be using her in the future.”
9. Hydee K.
“Such a great experience with Hydee. She kept me updated on my dogs stay, asked questions, provided great feedback and really made me feel at ease with leaving my dog with her. Thank you so much !”
10. Ashley W.
“Ashley took great care of our dogs and was very easy to work with. Dropoff and pickup was quick and easy and the dogs appeared to have a great time. She provided photos and updates during their stay with her and followed all of our instructions and dietary needs for our dogs. We will definitely use her again in the future!”
11. Ethan M.
“Ethan was amazing! He's really good with dogs and Cooper seemed to be happy there and listened to him. Ethan sent me daily photos of Cooper and took him on walks & a hike! He also provided tips for training. Highly recommend!”
12. Gabriel & Laura M.
“Gabriel & Laura took such great care of our dogs, Kylo & Cocoa! They were very attentive and sent us updates throughout the dogs’ stay, so we got to enjoy our weekend knowing that our dogs were cared for by this amazing family. Highly recommend and will definitely have them look after the dogs again when we’re in the area!”
13. Christopher S.
“Oz had a great stay with Chris and his family! This was his second visit. Chris welcomes Oz with a big smile and open heart. He provides lots of fun exercise with his dog, Lincoln as well as quiet time. Oz misses his mama, but I know he is well taken care with Chris.”
14. Jestina C.
“Fenway had an absolute blast staying with Jestina! We felt very comfortable on our vacation away from him. From the picture and video updates we got, Fenway looked right at home. Couldn’t recommend Jestina enough & will definitely plan to use her again in the future!!”
15. Stephanie S.
“Stephanie watched our cavalier Theo for 9 days while we were away and we were so happy with her care. She was a loving companion for our little dog and we were very reassured that he was in the best hands. Her communication was great - very quick to respond and easy to work with! She sent daily photo updates and was very attentive to his needs, even going to get a special ear wash solution at night when he needed it. We could tell Theo had the best week when we picked him up, it was like he had a little vacation of his own! We look forward to working with Stephanie again soon!”
16. Daniella M.
“Daniela was wonderful! She was loving with my dog and kept in great touch. Would highly, highly recommend!”
17. Mesgana A.
“Mesgana was, by far, the best dog-sitter we've had. With thorough updates every night and plenty of pictures, we always knew how Frankie was doing. What really elevated the stay was Mesgana's personal attention. Frankie is an elderly dog, and prone to dementia; she gets confused and anxious in new environments. Mesgana proactively found ways to make Frankie feel more comfortable, and even had a few suggestions for us when we picked her up. Hands down, you cannot find a better person to care for your pup. Thanks again, Mesgana!”
18. Jessica D.
“Jessica has taken care of Lua (our 2y/o cat) many times when we are away. She's so caring and living towards her, that even though Lua is not super friendly with other people, she loves Jessica! We are so grateful that we have someone that we can totally trust to take care of our baby.”
19. Dessie V.
“Diesel had lots of fun with Dessie and Casey. He came home nice and tired. Will definitely use again.”
20. Shayla & Jacob T.
“Shayla & Jacob were great communicators. They responded a timely manor. My puppies (5 months and just over a year) were well taken care of. We set up a meet and greet they took the time to listen to me and understand what my puppies needed they did not rush me at all I would definitely leave my puppies with them again. Not only are they lovely people but have a beautiful family”
