“Ángel was great! She was very responsive and attentive since our first interaction. She sent us pictures of our Jack and let us know he was doing well while we were away. He is happy and well and we could have not asked for more. We will for sure book her for future sitting needs!”
“Chrissy is absolutely amazing! I was a nervous wreck leaving my two dogs with someone I didn’t know but she made me and them feel so comfortable and right at home. She sent pictures of the dogs throughout the weekend and was just wonderful overall! I would absolutely leave my dogs with her and her family again!”
“Katie was great. Sent me updates everyday and treated my dogs like they were her own. I’ll definitely be reaching out and using her for her services again. Thanks again, you’re appreciated!”
“Karen, and her Family was great. They took very good care of my Nicholas. I was constantly given updates and pictures. You don't not only get 1 person interacting with your dog, you get her family, her dogs, and any other dog that might be staying. So they are never alone. If I need someone to watch him again, she is the one I want to take care of him.”
“Dobby had a great time when he stayed with Kelly! She gave frequent updates and I could tell she genuinely loved having him there, which made me very happy. Would definitely book again!”
“We appreciate Mariah and Anthony for being super flexible with taking care of our fur babies last minute! They accommodated for our family and took great care. Thank you guys!”
“Darla was fantastic! She treated our fur babies like her own. She sent photos and updates daily. She communicated very well and is an excellent boarder. Her yard is completely private and fenced in and she requests vet records to ensure the safety of all animals. We found our furever sitter!!! She will take amazing care of your babies.”
“Great guy (was able to fit me in at the last minute). Good space. In an area that’s easy to let dogs out and about. Also, he made my princess feel special and she made some friends too!”
“Amanda and her family did a great job taking care of my dog -Sam. Sam is a 4 months puppy. He needs a lot of attention and has lots of energy. Amanda’s very patient to take care of him, and sent me pictures. Sam had a great time in Amanda’s place while I was out of the town, played a lot with Tucker and Maya. I’ll definitely return if I need a sitter in the future.”
“Tammi was wonderful. First time my dog had been anywhere but home overnight. She sent updates and pictures to help ease my mind while I was away. Highly recommend her and will be using her services again in the near future.”
“Dianna was amazing! We were worried about leaving Ellie with anyone other than family, but by the time we picked Ellie up we decided we would most likely use her again rather than family! Thanks Dianna for keeping our big baby and allowing us to have nice worry free time away!”
“Jane is wonderful with Oliver, our 4 year old labradoodle. She treats him like her own dog. She’s very loving and patient. She is easy to work with and always eager to please. Oliver is very relaxed and happy when we pick him up, unlike when we pick him up from a noisy kennel. We will be using her again and again.”
“Karen took great care of my 75 lb dog! He has a lot of energy and clearly had a great time at Karen’s since he slept all day when he got back. I would definitely recommend Karen for watching your fur baby.”
“Flexible with scheduling and responsive, both are dogs were well taken care of and weren't anxious when we picked them up or the next day (meaning they felt comfortable there). Definitely would recommend”
“Rachelle is awesome! She was wonderful with our last minute change ups in scheduling and she took amazing care of our dog, Ollie! Will most definitely be scheduling with her again soon!”
“Patricia was excellent, I highly recommend her with your pets. While we were gone, Arlo newly developed allergies (pollen) she helped him through that period making sure the gooeyness from his eyes were kept clean with cool compressions. A big THANK YOU for everything you did with him :)”
“Will definitely use Victoria again. Our pup was so loved and well taken care of! This was our first time leaving him for multiple nights and Victoria and her family was awesome about sending updates and pictures. Our pup had a wonderful time enjoying the large back yard and the company of other dogs. Highly recommend Victoria and so happy we found a perfect sitter four our lil dude.”
