“We were really glad to have found Heather! She was able to accommodate our dog a few notice before we stayed in Galveston. Her woof lodge was only a short distance from where we were staying so that was a plus. Thank you for taking care of our girl.”
“Christy cared for my two dogs for four days and three nights, and everything was fantastic. She took excellent care of them, sent us photos, and maintained great communication throughout. I will definitely reach out to her for help again next time!”
“I would give 10 stars if I could. Michelle is truly an angel. She took such good care of our "girl" and went way above and beyond. A million thank yous for all you did for our Chanel.”
“We can't say enough good things about Jennifer! We are a repeat customer and she would be my top choice to watch my dog at any moment. We are so grateful that she took our dog leading up to the holidays. We could enjoy our trip knowing that our pet was in the best of hands!”
“I had such a great experience with my Skylar! She took amazing care of my pup while I was away and made me feel totally at ease. She sent regular updates and photos, which meant so much and helped me relax knowing he was happy and well looked after. It was clear she genuinely cared about him and paid attention to all the little details. I’d absolutely trust her again in a heartbeat — highly recommend!”
“Amazing! Mya was amazing with my little Lala, she gave me a peace of mind by constantly sending me updates of Lala playing around. Would definitely love for her to baby sit for me again in the future.”
“We were very pleased with the loving care our 2 dogs received. We enjoyed the pictures that we received while we were away. It looks like our dogs have a new friend he jumped in our car to leave with us. Our grandson thought that was funny. Thank you.”
“So amazing and helped me out of a jam over a holiday weekend. They helped minimize my own anxiety around my 6yo pit in several ways. I've only had him 7 months and we're still getting to know each other, so that was huge for me. Easy to communicate with and would absolutely book again. Sent photos without being asked, which meant so much!”
“Justo was great with my dog Rufus! He sent lots of pictures and video of Rufus playing and having a great time! Justo was responsive to my messages and flexible with the drop off/pick up time. Will definitely use him again!”
“I can't say enough good things about Susan. She kept me informed daily with pictures & messages, and did an awesome job caring for my Weimaraner- KYRO. Having to leave him for a week was definitely different for both of us because he is like my shadow daily. Knowing there are people like Susan that truly care about going the extra mile made things much easier. I will not hesitate to use her again and will strongly recommend her to anyone needing a sitter.”
“Clara was an excellent sitter for our lab while we were on vacation. She did a fantastic job updating us with pictures and ensuring that our dog had just as much fun as we were having. Clara has my full endorsement as a caring and competent sitter!”
“Abby went above and beyond in caring for our two golden retrievers, Barbara and Timothy. She embraced their chaos and high energy from the moment they walked in the door and we felt fully confident leaving them with her knowing they would have an amazing time. Abby loved them like her own and took exceptional care of them - she even bathed them when they played too hard in some mud! Our pups were happy, healthy, and tired from walks and playtime when we picked them up - we could not recommmend Abby enough and can't wait for our next visit with her!”
“She took care of our puppy on such short notice (literally within minutes at 8am). Had him all day and night and we just scheduled for him to stay another night. Roki is so nice, keeps you updated, and makes us very comfortable while she watches our “son” lol highly recommend”
“When we needed to board our dog, the decision was easy - Angela. Our dog is 15 years old and needs 3 daily meds. Angela handled this easily. If you want pictures of your dog, she is your sitter. There is no doubt that we will use Angela again.”
“Elizabeth was very attentive from the start. Communication was always open throughout the entire stay. She always sent pics/video s ofy furbaby to show me he was doing great. Definitely will schedule again. This was our first time using Rover and won't be the last.”
“We used Kelly to watch our little Cassie for 5 nights. Each day Kelly sent pictures and videos. She helped us feel at ease being away from her and we knew Cassie was safe and having a blast! The icing on top was the beautiful gift Kelly put together for Cassie when she left. Thanks Kelly for such wonderful service. We will definitely be using you again soon!”
“I am always so at ease leaving my beloved little Gypsy in Elizabeth’s care. She goes out of her way to make her home safe and welcoming. Her own dogs are so well behaved and offer a great opportunity to socialize my miniature schnauzer, who is often skittish around larger dogs.”
“Leon and his family took great care of Finn while we were on an anniversary trip. We get pictures and comments during his stay putting us at ease that he is being well care for. This is our second time to use Leon. We can highly recommend his services.”
“Wow! We'd been looking all over Galveston for someplace to take our pups when we travel and being able to find a home was awesome! They've never been kenneled so the thought was terrifying. Having a home with a fun little boy and his friend to play with was awesome. Our pups loved their pups and if we mention the name of the little one, our little one gets excited. We have to be careful. Annalisa and her husband, Dana know how to care for dogs and were very mindful of introducing ours to theirs. We did a park playdate first and they had a blast. Yes, we will be using them again!”
