We are thrilled with our pups’ first stay with Rillian! 100% recommend. We were hesitant about how our 2 dogs would do as they don’t get to socialize much and haven’t been boarded for years but we quickly realized they were in great hands and it couldn’t have gone any more smoothly. Rillian was so on top of everything including responding quickly to every message and question, sending updates with pictures, and going above and beyond to accommodate our more shy dog (she even kept us updated on how he was warming up throughout his stay, easing our every worry!). We could tell the guys had a great time and we will absolutely be returning to visit soon. It’s no surprise that Rillian has so many satisfied return customers. Thanks, Rillian!

They took great care of our two pugs! So easy to work with. Everything was ready when we arrived to pick them up. Will definitely use again!

I came back from a nine day trip and Leo was happy. Marlina was very kind to me when there was a slight hiccup in my schedule. This stay worked well for us.

Tess and Curt were absolutely amazing. Easily some of the best people that have ever cared for my dog, Honey! They provided the best environment for her and were incredibly diligent about making sure they were familiar with her schedule, behavior, and personality before she even arrived. Their dog, Finn, was also a joy and the best playmate for Honey. I loved knowing that she was getting so much interaction and stimulation! They also spent a TON of time with Honey and sent me multiple pictures, videos, and updates every day! I never worried about Honey once. I would choose them over and over again and would recommend them to anyone looking for a loving, safe, and involved family to care for their dog. I can’t say enough good things about them!

Katie is an incredibly thoughtful caretaker. From the time we dropped our goldendoodle off, we felt completely at ease (as did our goldendoodle). Her calm and relational demeanor, coupled with her demonstrated experience and sensitivity to our dog's specific needs made for an incredibly care-free time away for us; we knew that our dog was literally in the best hands.

Jessica and her family were amazing sitters for our Labrador "Bella!" We couldn't have asked for a nicer or kinder family to entrust our fury family member. Bella loved her time with Jessica leaving my wife and I comforted to know she was in good care! Highly recommend Jessica for any pet sitting services. She took the time to periodically send videos and photos during Bella's stay. This further secured our trust that Bella was in good hands and allowed my wife and I to enjoy our vacation. We will definitely use Jessica again!

Katrina was an absolute blessing while watching our senior dog, Fudge. We were away for our daughter's graduation and she made sure we could be fully present without a second of worry. She took Fudge on gentle walks tailored to his pace, and constantly sent the sweetest videos and photos that had us smiling the whole weekend. You can tell she truly loves senior dogs — she was patient, attentive, and treated Fudge like her own. Returning to a happy, relaxed pup was the best graduation gift we could ask for. We trust Katina 100% and will be booking her again. If you have a senior dog, she’s your person!

I had a fantastic experience with Crystal while she looked after my 9-month-old Snowshoe cat, Mavis, during my spring break. Right from the meet and greet, she knew her stuff. She introduced Mavis to her apartment, and her pet is around the same age, Sushi, and gave us some great tips on helping Mavis settle in. The Blink camera in the room where Mavis stayed was a nice touch, allowing Crystal to check in on her whenever she was out, which was reassuring. Plus, she ensured Mavis got plenty of playtime – she understood Mavis's playful side. I was impressed by how Crystal helped Mavis and Sushi become friends. They hit it off after a little supervised playtime, which made me feel even better about leaving Mavis with her. What genuinely set Crystal apart was her communication. She kept in touch throughout my trip, sending updates and adorable pictures of Mavis. It was so reassuring to see Mavis happy and well taken care of while I was away. In short, Crystal is fantastic at what she does. She's caring, professional, and loves animals. I'll definitely be calling on her again next time I need a cat sitter.

Brooke was an amazing dog sitter and we couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of our dog Sequoia. Sequoia wasn’t feeling well and Brooke went out of her way to support Sequoias needs. She was beyond understanding and very nice to both us and Sequoia during these circumstances. We would recommend Brooke to others and will definitely use her again.

Madison was such a great sitter for our doggy Sky! Our flight home even got unexpectedly cancelled and she made accommodations to extend her stay decreasing my stress over the situation. Madison even gave me updates on how sky was doing and my dog came home happy and not nervous at all, which i appreciate in a sitter. I would highly recommend her for any future dog sitting because she was absolutely wonderful!
