Maggie was the perfect sitter for our pup. She was communicative, sending videos of our dog and reassuring us that everything was going great while we were gone. Our dog came back better behaved than we left her!!!

Brianna was so great with our dog, Scout, for the weekend while we were away at a wedding. We loved the photo updates and notes that she was doing well during her stay. This is our second time having Brianna take care of Scout and we will absolutely be back again!

Korinne and family were so great with our beagle, Violet! She had a great time playing with Laney, another pup who stayed, and she came home exhausted from all the fun. We're so happy to have a place we know Violet will be well cared for while we're away. Thank you!

Alex was WONDERFUL! He went above and beyond to take care of my 70lb foster puppy, Sony. Took him on long walks and to the dog park ?. He was also super helpful when I couldn’t get the crate into my car. He went above and beyond by picking up the crate and the pup at my apartment. Sony was so happy and relaxed when he got back home. I will definitely book with Alex again.

Hui has pet sit for me many times over the years and she has always been terrific! She’s super communicative, always willing to work around my complicated schedule, and got along great with my pup! She went above and beyond to help water the couple of plants I had and take pictures of my dog while I was away, which was very thoughtful.

Maria and her dogs were great with our high energy pup! This was our first time arranging an overnight dog sitter that wasn’t a family member. Maria was able to schedule us for a meet and greet a week in advance which made us feel so much better about the overnight. She uses positive reinforcement training techniques and sent several photo/video updates. We highly recommend Maria!

Katherine was amazing taking care of Bogey for the first time! She was super responsive during the booking process, and sent loads of photos throughout his stay. It was clear Bogey was sad to leave given what a nice time he had in Katherine's home.

Stephanie is wonderful to work with and it’s safe to say my golden, Lucy, loves her now. She helped me with last minute boarding request. We did an initial daycare so they could get to know each other before boarding and Lucy was super excited once she knew she was going back after her daycare day. Stephanie lets you everything going on and shares lots of videos & pictures during the stay. Would 100% recommend Stephanie to anyone interested in finding a safe and loving home to send your fur baby for a day or more.

Catherine and her family took great care of my dog Riley for two weeks while I was on vacation. Riley stayed at her home, and she got a lot of exercise, socialization and love while she was there. Catherine sent pictures, sweet notes and funny observations almost every day. I will definitely request Catherine in the future when we need a pet sitter.

I can not express how greatful we are to have found Kierra and her husband! The anxiety of leaving our two pit pups, one of which is a little difficult with other dog, was overwhelming beyond belief. We’ve never left them with strangers. Kierra sent pictures and videos everyday with updates and our dogs were so comfortable. They actually miss their play with Kierra’s dog. I would recommend a thousand times over and will only using them in the future❤️❤️

Chelsea went above & beyond for us. First she agreed to take on our senior dog for an extended stay on relatively short notice. The petsitter who’d agreed to take him backed out when she heard he had a cough, even though it wasn’t kennel cough. She didn’t blink an eye at the fact that he needed small meals 6 times a day due to the medications he was taking. She understood my directions (and it was complicated!). He never has accidents at home but I know he’s had a tendency towards him when boarded & that didn’t phase Chelsea either. Of course she also shared photos of him. You won’t regret leaving your dog with Chelsea, no matter their age (our dog is 15).

Caring for animals has always been a part of what makes Amanda. Whether it has been through always understanding and providing the responsibilities of havng a pet, caring for family/friends pets, volunteering at numerous animal shelters, providing dog walking services, to actually adopting a puppy whom she nutured and provided the most healthly & loving enviroment. Any pet would be truly lucky and well cared for when they are welcomed into Amanda's world.

Kristine was absolutely fantastic. She kept us up to date with pictures and info about our dog Griffin, who had an awesome time playing with her pup Flynn. Her backyard is so perfect for running around! I'd recommend her to anyone, and we'd happily have her as a pet sitter anytime.

Allie is knowledgable and professional. Our Honey does need special care and Allie made that a priority. I recommend Allie for anyone who may be nervous about using a dog sitter. She put our worries at ease and Honey loved her time.
