Katie and her sweet family took excellent care of Chloe. We got frequent pictures and daily updates. We highly recommend Katie and appreciate all that she did for Chloe. We had to extend Chloe stay for a couple days and Katie was so accommodating and kind.

Elizabeth was great and cared for our dog very well. Our dog, Ruby, is getting older, is more picky and has to have medication and Elizabeth handled it all like a pro! Ruby came home calm and relaxed! We will use Elizabeth again for sure! Thank you for taking such good care of our sweet little pup!

Sandra and her family took such great care of my dog! My dog can be a little particular about who she stays with, but when we get to Sandra’s she runs straight out of the car and into their home! They are very caring, attentive and communicative. Highly recommend!!

It’s clear that Xiaoying and her husband love cats. They have a good understanding of cat behavior and know how to help all cats feel comfortable. My cat did not have much experience around other cats, but Xiaoying knew how to do a slow proper introduction and my cat was able to warm up to the new surrounding and make kitty friends. They provided the most safe, loving, clean, and caring home for our cat. They gave him so much care and attention each day and it comforted us to receive so many daily videos and pictures. Thank you for taking such good care of our kitty! Highly recommend!

I cannot say enough amazing things about Mariana (Lori) Loredanna as a dog sitter! Over the Christmas holiday, I entrusted her with my two huskies, Elvis and Priscilla, and she exceeded every expectation I had. Lori boarded them at her home, and from the moment I met her, it was clear she has an incredible love and natural connection with animals. Even though she’s new to dog sitting, Lori’s professionalism, care, and genuine affection for my dogs made it seem like she’s been doing this for years. She treated Elvis and Priscilla as if they were her own, keeping them happy, comfortable, and well-loved throughout their stay. Her attention to detail, warm personality, and daily updates gave me complete peace of mind during the holidays—a rare find in this industry! Elvis and Priscilla came home relaxed, healthy, and so clearly adored. Honestly, I won’t trust anyone else with my dogs now. Lori has set the bar impossibly high, and if you’re looking for someone to care for your pets like family, she’s the one! If you want someone who will treat your fur babies with the utmost care and love, Mariana (Lori) Loredanna is the perfect choice. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a top-tier dog sitter—you and your pets will be so glad you did! Thank you, Lori, for being the absolute best!

Tyrie was wonderful to my senior Doberman, Jimmy, and sent me pics during my week vacation. We had a meet and greet before his booking and she asked all of the right questions for clarification. I could tell Jimmy was comfortable during his stay with her. I will definitely keep Tyrie in mind for any future boarding needs. 10/10 for Tyrie!

Hannah and Sergii are hands down the best pet sitters you could ask for! They took care of my dog, Ziggy, this week, and I couldn’t be happier with their care. From the moment I dropped him off, I knew he was in great hands. They treated Ziggy like family, making sure he was comfortable, well-exercised, and given plenty of love and attention. It’s clear they truly care about the pets they look after, and their passion shines through in everything they do. I received regular updates, adorable photos, and even some fun little stories about Ziggy’s stay, which really put my mind at ease. Hannah and Sergii are the go-to people if you want sitters who are responsible, kind, and genuinely love animals. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of Ziggy! We’ll definitely be booking with you again soon

It was my first time leaving my dog with a stranger for the weekend, so I was initially nervous. Katie arranged a meet and greet before my trip and really put us at ease. She was extremely accommodating with my travel schedule and went out of her way to make sure I didn't miss my flight. She sent daily updates on the dogs and kept me in the loop regarding their activities. I would definitely leave my dogs with her again and would highly recommend her!

The Sharp family made an absolutely wonderful, loving and safe home for our 14 yr old Bishon while we were away for a week. Shanna and her husband were so caring with him, the kids loved him like their own and even their dog was a friendly companion. They took Rosco for many walks each day and sent us daily photos that made us smile. We are so appreciative and grateful knowing he was well cared for and happy while we were gone!
