“Emily was wonderful! Lilly loved being with Emily and her husband for the week. Emily was very professional and kept me updated daily on how Lilly was doing. Every time she sent me videos or pictures, Lily was happy and running around. Definitely will be using Emily again for pet sitting services!”


“Joanne was fantastic and made me feel she would protect (and spoil) my two high-energy dogs. Joanne was very responsive and kept us updated frequently. I would 100% recommend. Thank you, Joanne!”


“Kristie was one of the best dog sitters we have had for Bruno. She was not only professional but deeply passionate about the well-being of animals. What truly stood out was her remarkable responsiveness and flexibility. Despite my last-minute request, she graciously accommodated my needs. Throughout my dog's stay, Kristie maintained excellent communication with cute photos of Bruno, keeping me informed and reassured at every step. She even gave my dog with a toy to take home with him. I wholeheartedly recommend Kristie to anyone seeking reliable and caring pet care services and I 100% would go to her again for future needs.”


“Elaine was great! I could tell Vito was well taken care of she sent lots of photos. She was flexible with our schedule. I will always book with her from now on. Loved she only does one dog at a time. Vito slept with her so I knew instantly he felt safe!”

“Purvi looked after my puppy, Milo, and she was absolutely amazing! Her love for dogs was evident. She provided periodic updates, including adorable pictures, which gave me peace of mind. Purvi was flexible with my requests and had really good energy with Milo. She treats dogs like her own and made Milo feel comfortable and happy. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter. Thank you, Purvi, for being fantastic with Milo!”


“Kaipo loved Scotts home. He was so excited to be there. Nice big yard to run around in and other dogs to play with as well. One of the biggest changes I noticed after Kaipos' stay was that he now returns the ball to me when we play fetch. He would never do that before. Keep away was his favorite game. Took him to dog park and I was throwing the ball for him for nearly an hour. He bought it back every time, dropped it and waited for me to pick it up and throw it again. That was a nice change and I want to thank Scott for fixing that. I had fun.”


“Duck had the best time with Kevin and Natalie!! They took amazing care of her with lots of walks and snuggles and they were awesome at keeping us updated with adorable pictures throughout her whole stay. She was excited to see me when I picked her up but I can tell she is definitely missing them! Will definitely book with them again!!”


“We’re so pleased with our first experience using Jason and Jennifer to watch our 2 pups. We are so happy to have found someone we can trust! Thank you!”


“Donna was incredible!! She watched Abby for almost a week and sent us twice daily updates, pictures, and videos. We could tell Abby felt at ease and she really enjoyed Donna’s comfortable home and outdoor space. Donna gave Abby’s meds right on schedule and even helped her with an itchy spot, applying medicated cream and a shirt to prevent more irritation. We could tell she has tons of experience with animals and we are so thankful for her help. Highly recommend!!! Thank you!”


“Leila did a great job taking care of both my dogs. She had extra toys for them to play with as well as extra dog beds for afternoon naps. My dogs had humans to snuggle at night. Leila walked them in the morning and we received pictures every day. Great fenced in backyard. We will use again”


“Ares was very happy at Anna‘s home. He did very well. She took good care of her.”


“Monica and her family was great with my Giovanna, I’m already to book my next stay with her for my two week vacation. We received updates on how our puppy was doing. She went on walks it was like she was home away from home. So much better than placing her in a kennel. Monica and family will be my puppy new extended family. I can now relax while going away :-) thank you Monica for taking such good care of Giovanna”


“Amy is absolutely fabulous! She was able to get my dog to eat, which is tough at home let alone in a new place. Amy gave me so many updates - I always knew my dogs were safe, loved, and happy. My dogs loved her yard so much! We will definitely be rebooking with her for our next trip.”

“Sue and Dave are wonderful to Molly, our Wheaten Terrier. She adores them, and when my husband picks her up, after a stay, she looks back longingly at her hosts as she leaves. This never happened before at any of the places we boarded her, before we discovered Sue and Dave’s home away from home for Molly. We are thrilled that we can now enjoy our trips, knowing Molly is happy and safe in a loving environment.”


“Gail did a great job with Raven. We usually are worried about whether Raven will adjust to a new sitter, but Gail quickly sent us pictures and a note letting us know how quickly she bonded with Raven and how calm she had become.”
