“Ebony was wonderful with my big guy. It was his first time having a sleepover with a sitter and I am beyond grateful for her patience with him. As well as with me and I would recommend her every time.”


“Heather was great!! She sent me pics of my dog regularly and was easy to communicate with. My dog seemed comfortable there too! We will definitely be booking with her again.”


“The pups got to stay with Josh for a whole week, their longest stay. He sent updates, pictures and videos. We can tell they were very well taken care of. Thanks Josh.”


“Sylvie stayed with her for a long weekend, she was a happy puppy playing with Tonka and the other visitors during her time there. Very pleased with the care my baby girl got!!”


“Beth was great with Charlie. She gave us frequent updates on his status including pictures. We definitely will want to use her again and highly recommend her.”


“We went on a week-long trip with parents and other siblings, glad we did not bring Momo with us. Imagined hiking trip turned out to be amusement parks back to back, no shade for human and no dogs allowed. Other siblings' dog stuck inside everyday crying, while Momo made new friends with Nick's puppies, running around in the large yard playing frisbee with Nick, all new experience for her. Seeing her happy in the pictures videos from Nick, we knew how much she doesn't miss us at all lol. Staying with Nick Momo had a real vacation and did not miss out on anything. Worth mentioning, one week is a new record for Momo apart from me. Thank Nick so much and Momo would definitely stay at Nick's next time.”


“My wife and I had a weekend trip planned and the person that was set to watch our dog had a last minute emergency. I sent a message to Elizabeth and Phillip and they responded within minutes. Our dog is 7 months old and it is only the second time we have left him. The first time was at a kennel and we really wanted a home environment for him. Elizabeth and Phillip provided great care. They sent daily pictures and updates. He must have had a great time because after picking him up he slept most of the day. We will definitely be calling them again the next time we need a sitter.”


“Lori was absolutely exceptional while hosting my 3 beloved pups. She kept me up to date multiple times a day on there status to include lots of pictures. Two to my dogs are on medications with one being a senior Chihuahua, Lori provided their medications as prescribed by their Veternarian. I will ALWAYS have Lori keep my pets as they were loved, comfortable and happy while in her home. Thank you once again for loving my babies just as I do.”

“She take a very good care of my dog, always send pictures to keep me updated and ask questions about the dog to make they’re as comfortable as they can. She even gives my dog a shower before he leave. She also pay attention to how my dog eat and notice that he’s only eat if you mix his food. I would definitely recommend her and be back next time.”

She would respond promptly to any messages and would send photos/videos. She also has several other dogs and cats which worked to help better socialize our dog as well. All of these factors make it easy to recommend her to anyone, and we’ll definitely be using her again in the future!”
