“He did an amazing job! Sent pictures every day, took my very energetic dog on long walks, she came back such a calm dog. Accepted my late request and was a life saver!”

“Lesley was amazing as always! I swear she is a dog whisperer. My little Yorkie (who can admittedly be a handful AND seems to hate everyone) adores her. I couldn’t be happier with her service and am grateful to have found her.”

“Thomas was wonderful with our airedale terrier. He sent pictures and updates about their adventures. Our dog has food allergies and Thomas was able to make sure he did not come into contact with them. We will look forward to hiring him in the future.”

“Marie was AMAZING with my fur baby, truly interested, warm and welcoming. Marie also communicated with me and sent photos all week long. She has great energy and my pup loved her. They went for long walks every day, practiced his training and played. Marie even bought extra food when my food ran out. Super attentive dog care and highly recommend 110%”

“We did a test night in preparation for a trip we have planned for the end of October. Kona had a great time, and Deb was wonderful with her. Even though it was only over night, Deb sent pictures, and also texted in the morning saying Kona had a good night.”

“I can't recommend Anthony and Jayson highly enough! Corin had an absolute blast. He loved spending time in the yard and came home happy. What really stood out was how responsive the rover was throughout the stay; I never had to wonder how things were going. I would absolutely book again the next time I travel. Five stars without hesitation!”


“Jake's first experience with Cara & Dan was every bit as good as we could have hoped for. They are a kind & caring couple with pet care experience & excellent instincts, Communication was excellent: daily photos with descriptive comments & promptly responsive throughout the entire experience.”

“Rochelle was amazing! Took wonderful care of our puppy, send lots of updates and was very communicative! Put our mind at ease for our first time away and will definitely use her again!”

“Everything went well with Cara's 1st overnight stay. No issues were reported back to me. I will be leaving her with Jose again next weekend for a week. He sent a picture of Cara hanging in his back yard. Thanks again.”

“There are not enough stars for Alex! Our dog Adele always has the most amazing time with Alex and his wife, she loves spending time with them. They go on fantastic adventures and go above and beyond to care for her. I cannot recommend Alex enough!”

“Both Kimberly and Chris were very easy to make arrangements with, and their two happy dogs are a great reference! I had peace of mind leaving Murphy there, and the photos Kimberly sent of the dogs hanging out were great. They are nice people that love animals and I think Murphy had a great time with them. They were also really accommodating in terms of working with our plans/needs, which was so helpful. ”

“Elliot and Dominique were fantastic sitters for my dog Ecco - He became quickly attached to them and it was very clear that they dedicated so much time and attention to him. I felt very comfortable trusting them with Ecco, seeing photo updates of him having a great time, and I would not hesitate to bring him back!”

“We left our dog with Ada and Micheli for two weeks and it was such a wonderful experience. They cared for him so well and he was very happy when we picked him up. They sent us photos and updates of him every day. You can easily tell how much they enjoy caring for pets. We will be happy to leave our Bentley with them anytime!”

“My dog has never been happier besides me the pics I’ve seen made me feel so confident and comfortable with Rachel taking care of my baby boy he stayed active and she gave him the same level of care that I would have and khai her fur baby added the love to all the fun he had and in the pics she sent we will be seeing her again thanks for the love and care it is appreciated!!!”

Lesley was very good with Bucky, taking him for his regular walks and making him feel at home. She sent lots of photos! I would have preferred knowing how many dogs she would be caring for at the same time my dog was with her. Fortunately, my dog loves canine company.

Lydia did a wonderful job taking care of our puppy while we went to a wedding. This was our first time leaving our dog with someone else, and Lydia was so kind and caring that we felt totally comfortable. As an added bonus, she sent us some beautiful pictures of our pup!
