“Mary and her family were wonderful with our dog Nova!! They have a huge fenced in backyard, and took her on many walks. We felt like she was in amazing care during our trip, and received photos throughout the day! Thank you so much Mary!”
“Callie had an amazing time at Lydia’s while my bf and I were out of town. I felt so happy and comfortable knowing Callie was well taken care of and safe. We will be booking again! Thank you!!”
“Grateful for many updates and pictures! It was clear someone was always at home with bug, that he was well cared for, and always kept an eye on. Much love given to him during this stay!! She alerted me on how his slept, his poops, and anything else! Kids were great with him as well!! Their dog was fun for Bug to play with! Did not go inside or see what home environment was like such as in a meet and greet.”
“We had total peace of mind leaving our dog in Jennifer’s care. Upon drop-off, you can see that she is very organized in how she approaches caring for multiple dogs. You can tell her family is so loving towards animals. I would recommend her to anyone looking for great, attentive care for their pet!”
“Tetyana is the best of the best! She goes above and beyond each time to love on my dog and make sure he feels safe and relaxed. She sends pictures and tells us about his day, which makes leaving him a little easier.”
“Cheryl is outstanding. She took great care of Apollo and gave me daily updates. Apollo had a fun time with her and her husband and came back home healthy and happy. I will definitely use her services again.”
“We selected Vinata to watch our Goldendoodle for our first longer trip away from home (14 days) - the entire time we were gone we received very regular updates, fun videos and even photos from their very talented daughter. They seem to always have a dog or two so our Wally seemed to have a wonderful time; even appeared to be sad he had to go back to his more boring life. Highly recommend!!!”
“Shivambika took care of my dog like her own. She sent me timely updates and kept me informed about my dog’s wellbeing. My dog was a little sad and wasn’t eating very well but Shivambika tried different things to make sure she eats well and she succeeded too. Her house is very clean and beautiful. I would definitely leave my dog there again.”
“Our australian shepherd, Kygo, stayed with Tracy for 5 nights and I never once felt worried about him. Tracy sent us at least 2-3 photos of Kygo per day, and he looked very comfortable and content in every photo. Our boy is used to sleeping with us at night, and used to cuddling with us on the couch. Kygo slept in the bedroom with Tracy and their dog Radley every night. I received several photos of kygo getting comfortable on the couches, or cuddling up with Tracy. They had their morning walk and got to hang out with Tracy for the rest of the day! I am very pleased with our experience with Tracy and will definitely be using her again! She is always quick to respond and sends updates everyday before i even have to ask.”
“They were great!! They were flexible about drop off and pickup, sent great updates and pictures, and are just really nice people. Their dog was also a fun bundle of energy who just wants to play!!!”
“My husband and I just traveled to the UK to attend a wedding there, and we were very far away from our doggy this time. It's one thing to travel close to home knowing that you aren't very far away from your dog in case there is an emergency of some sort. But it's another thing to be so far away, yet feel comfortable and relieved knowing your beloved pet is so well taken care of. We were able to completely enjoy ourselves halfway across the world knowing that Abby was in such competent hands and being spoiled rotten by Cynthia. Cynthia has created such a bond with Abby that there is no denying that it's Abby's second home while we travel. Thank you again, Cynthia. You are the BEST!!!!!!”
“Stephanie did a wonderful job watching our little Milo and keeping me updated with how he was adjusting to his stay with her and family. Thank you for a wonderful care while I went out of town.”
“Alexis is the absolute BEST! She watched our two dogs for 2 weeks while we were away for our wedding. We were so at ease knowing they were in such good care. Our dogs had the best time at Alexis’ and were actually sad to leave. Thanks so much, Alexis! Finn and Soph will definitely be back!”
“Nicole did a wonderful job of taking care of my cats (one of which takes meds 4 times a day). They had a good time playing with her daughter, and didn't want to leave at the end of their stay.”
“Marielle did a fabulous job watching our girl Pandy! She did all she could to make her feel better & more comfortable with her stay even picking up medication for her which helped her feel better 😊 She kept in contact sending updates and photos which was nice to see ☺️ Would definitely book again!”
“Emil (and Sarah) we fantastic hosts. Sully was happy, healthy, and a little tired after playing with a few friends. When I came to pick him up, all of his stuff was already prepared, and I could load it in the car without having to worry about hanging in to him - very thoughtful!! He's slept most of the remainder of that day, and looked to be very happy. I had zero worries, doggo is happy, pickup was stress-free and easy, five stars!! Thank you Emil!!”
