“Darcie and her girls are the absolute best! Highly recommend! I think our boys are actually sad when we come to take them home because they love being with Darcie so much ❤️😄”
“Heather was fantastic in caring for our dog! She sent lots of pics and videos of him playing at the park and hanging out with his pals. We really appreciate the care she provided and I know our dog was happy too!”
“I feel so grateful that I found someone like Genna to watch my English Setter. He plays beautifully with her dog and is treated like part of their family. She gives him the love and care that gives me peace of mind when he's with her. The huge, fenced in backyard is another plus.The photographs and video she sends on a regular basis make me smile. I highly recommend Genna to anyone looking for an outstanding sitter for their dog!”
“Emily did a great job caring for our dog while we were on vacation for a week! She sent pictures and updates daily and was very easy to communicate with. She treated our dog like one of her own, even letting him sleep in her bed when he didn’t want to sleep in his kennel! We would definitely use Emily again!”
“Mark was fantastic with our dog Gus. He is an excellent communicator and sends updates and pics that were much appreciated. We picked up a very happy boy. Highly recommend.”
“Carol was organized and asked a lot of great questions to ensure my dog was comfortable and happy. I am embarrassed to admit that my dog panicked at the meet and greet and immediately went to the bathroom in her house. She just had been mostly cooped up during the pandemic and a new house with new people just freaked her out. I was surprised Carol was still willing to watch her, but she took all this in stride. I could tell my dog was bonding with her throughout the week. I highly recommend this understanding and thoughtful sitter! I know she's going to be my first choice from now on.”
“Kathleen took great care of Poppy. She gave him tons of walks and love and even introduced him to her friends. She went above and beyond feeding Poppy healthy food that she purchased herself. Kathleen sent Poppy home clean after giving him a bath. None of this was requested. This shows the love she pours into the animals she cares for. A++.”
“Layla had a great time at Katelyn’s! I can tell she felt welcome and comfortable and loved. They have a beautiful home in a great area with a perfect backyard for dogs. She enjoyed playing with the family dogs so much! Katelyn also sent a baggie of treats with a sweet note home with Layla. Nice touch! I highly recommend this sweet family for your doggie care needs.”
“Jake was great with Dexter. He responded quickly and maintained great communication. He was also very flexible with my hours of availability. Dexter enjoyed his time with Jake and seemed very happy. I would definitely bring him back.”
“Corinna was awesome! Everything went perfectly from the initial conversation to plan Max’s drop-off all the way until pickup. Corinna was attentive to all of Max’s special needs, she was very accommodating & had a wonderful set-up for Max to feel comfortable. She also had excellent communication skills, providing many photos & updates throughout his stay. I highly recommend Corinna. A++”

Andrea gave Milo personal care and attenyion,kept in communication with us, and shared pictures of Milo enjoying his new home away from home. We will definitely ask for Andrea's availability the next time we need to be away from home.”
