Elizabeth is a rare find and absolute gem. She took such great care of my Luna, administering meds and getting her out for walks. Elizabeth provided frequent, excellent communication without being asked. Luna can be a bit extra sometimes and she was putty in Elizabeth’s hands. Thank you, Elizabeth!

Deena was phenomenal with our 12 husky for two weeks. Her dog is the cutest and got along great with our cranky old lady. Deena was super helpful and accommodating with the multiple medications our girl is on. We will definitely be booking again in the future.

Georgette was absolutely fantastic with Pax; he is a huge puppy, highly intelligent and very sensitive. Setting things up with Georgette was smooth since she was highly responsive, sent many pictures and videos and I never once wondered whether my pup was ok because I know he was having a great time. Georgette's two dogs were also a great accompaniment to Pax, and I would highly recommend booking with her.

Your dog NEEDS to spend time with Caitlyn. I was so nervous to leave Winston but I think he had a better time hanging out with Caitlyn in Philly than I did on vacation in Florida! Caitlyn sent me detailed messages everyday with pictures and updates and she dedicated so much time to Winston. They went all over the city, from the Art Museum to Independence Hall and it was so amazing to see him get to go on so many adventures. Caitlyn loved snuggling with Winston and invited him up on furniture and it showed she really thought of dogs as family. When Caitlyn met up with me and Winston she listened to all of his quirks so thoughtfully and with so much understanding. I told her Winston really didn’t like water or swimming, and when she came to pick him up it was raining and she said “ let’s hurry up Winston, I know you don’t like water!” I mean come on, that was so sweet. She really took the time to learn about him. AND she came and picked him up for me which was so convenient and helpful! And finally at the end of their time together, Caitlyn bought Winston a little birthday gift. You can’t find kindness and responsibility like this everywhere. I 11/10 recommend Caitlyn !!

Hannah was great. She watched my dog for a week and sent updates with photos and videos every day! It was clear Breezy got a lot of time outside in the park & inside playtime. I definitely recommend her and would feel comfortable leaving my dog in her care again in the future!

Lauryn and Hunter did a wonderful job taking care of Scarlett while I was away. They were very flexible in scheduling pick up and drop off times, they kept me fully updated on all her goings on and took terrific pictures that helped me feel better about being apart from her for the first time in over a year. She seems to have had a great time and is surely looking forward to staying and playing with them again in the future.
