“Casey was such a great sitter! I felt comfortable the whole weekend because she sent pictures and videos the entire time I was gone. She was professional and communicated well.”
“These ladies did an amazing job with our young dog! We went on our first trip without him and while he wasn't used to being away from home they knew just how to help him. They have a great home and yard perfect for dogs to run free, play, and rest. They are able to separate dogs during feeding time in bedrooms or a gated kitchen. They are willing to walk the dog and provide special meals if needed. I was worried about leaving my baby behind but I felt so comfortable after having a meet and greet. They treat animals like family. Thank you again ladies, we will definitely let you know when we go out of town again.”
“Ashleigh & Bill took superior care of our golden retrievers! Absolutely top-notch! From the initial meeting with their dog Tucker, to the pictures & text updates, to wrapping up the visit; Ashleigh and Bill showed kindness & care. They truly opened thier home to our pups and they treated them like family. We highly recommend their care & services.”
“Amber was AMAZING ? We left our Marlie girl with Amber for week while we went out of state. I was a little nervous about being so far away but Amber put my mind at ease with multiple updates daily and lots of pics. They went on lots of long walks, played in the great big backyard and chased squirrels. I am so grateful to Amber for taking such good care of our girl. I would highly recommend Amber. Marlie is already excited for her next pup vacation at Amber’s house”
“Sara and her family were AMAZING!!! We have a 4 month old puppy and we were nervous about leaving him and, we had to leave him overnight. Sara took him into her home and not only loved him like it was her own but took him on so many walks, play activities and puppy training. She went far beyond my expectations, nearly to the point where I felt bad taking my puppy home as he was having so much fun! I am so grateful we found Sara!”
“I needed a last minute care for Benny and Gregory was super responsive and attentive of any questions I may have had. I’m super thankful being that my baby is super scared of everything however when I picked him up he was so happy. He smelled good and was super soft. I 1000000% recommend him and I will definitely be reaching out again whenever Benny needs to stay anywhere!”
“Looks like Leo really enjoyed his time there with Heavyn, and her pups. She was sweet to him and he clearly fell in love with here, also she is a very kind person to speak with. I will definitely keep coming back for boarding.”
“To say we adored Emily is an understatement! She constantly updated us with videos and photos of our two dogs and the communication was incredible. She has a massive bed set up for all the dogs to sleep with her and she takes the dogs outside frequently. The real mind blowing part for us was she managed to earn the love and affection of our 10 pound minpin who doesn’t like people whatsoever. It takes at least a couple visits for our minpin to trust and like people, yet she was curling up in their laps and getting excited to see them on day one! We couldn’t believe it was the same dog. This spoke volumes to us as Emily clearly makes every dog feel safe and comfortable in her home. We would highly recommend Emily to anyone looking for a babysitter or overnight stay for their fur babies and we 100% will use Emily again!”
“Our boys had another great time staying with Daphne and her family! We received plenty of updates and videos of our dogs enjoying their stay! So thankful we have a caring sitter for those times we can’t take our dogs with us.”
“Tammy was wonderful! This is our first time leaving our dogs with anyone other than family! We had a meet and greet with Tammy prior to our trip! Mila and Sasha seemed happy and had friends to play with. Tammy was more than accommodating with our care requests and sent us pics and updates during our time away! Thanks again!”
“The BEST pet sitter in the area! I’ve used several sitters and interviewed several more - without a doubt, her family treated my girl as one of their own! I had picks sent during her stay, and constant communication that shows she loves what she does ❤️. I even got a progress report and jump drive of videos and picks of her stay. My go to from now on! Thank you and I will be using you again, and again, and again 😍😊”
“Arlissa and her partner are just incredible. They were so sweet with Roxy and sent us daily photos of her and always let us know how she was doing. They are by far the best dog sitters in Ohio. We will not hesitate to book them in the future. Roxy was even given Christmas gifts at the end!!!”
“Mandy was amazing! Josie immediately felt comfortable and at home with her and the family. We were able to meet ahead of time to make sure everything was to run smoothly and I was thankful for that time. Having an animal reactive pet brings a lot of stress and anxiety when it comes to boarding and dog sitters, but Mandy erased all of my anxiety with her above and beyond care and communication. While out of town I had continuous message AND picture updates of my fur baby and I was so grateful. Cannot wait to book with this crew again! 💕”
“Joe did a great job with my two dogs while we were out of town for a week. It was our first time leaving them in someone else’s home but we felt very comfortable and they were well taken care of! Will absolutely use Joe again in the future!”
“Lisa was wonderful! This was our first time having to leave our baby with someone that he doesn’t know and it was great. If you want someone who will continually send pictures, videos and updates, Lisa is the one. I will definitely be booking with her again, no doubt about it!”
