“Kay and family was definitely a godsend in my last minute attempt to find care for my dog, Henry. Daily updates with pictures and videos and great communication helped me relax knowing he was in good hands. My dog has special needs in the center where he has attachment issues and there was always somebody home at Kay‘s house to be with Henry and her family is just as calming and sweet as what you would picture from her description and photos. Not only a great dog sitter but an amazing human being in life! Can’t thank you all enough!”
“Wonderful experience! We were nervous to leave our 3 1/2 month puppy for a week, but couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Logan. Great communication, and our puppy came home happy and tired. Highly recommend!”

“Dayjah watched our cat Scout for us over Christmas. She sent daily pictures and he seemed very happy. She was also patient with our delayed pickup after us getting stuck waiting for our lost bag at baggage claim on Christmas night. Thank you Dayjah!”

“Ramanda and her daughters were wonderful and took great care of my 4mo old puppy! They walked him, played with him and made him feel at home just like he was their dog. We will definitely ask them for care in the future!”

“Thank you so much Alicia and Simon for taking care of Milo. it looks like he had great time at your house playing with Teddy and Daisy. Thank you so much for taking him out for a walk daily. Milo enjoys outside walk. Mamatha”

“Brittany did a wonderful job. Our dog showed no signs of stress when we picked him up and Brittany was very accommodating when we had health issues and needed to extend our dog’s time with her due to our personal health issues.”

“Regan did a FANTASTIC job watching my Molly! Molly can be a little timid meeting new people but immediately became friends with Regan. She loved running around the backyard with Luna and Maya. It was so comforting knowing that Molly was not only being taking care of but also being loved like one of her own pets. I received daily updates and pictures of all the fun Molly was having. I will definitely use Regan again!”

“Yuliya is just fantastic! She got Monk outside despite the snowstorm and sent pictures everyday! I love knowing he is being loved and cared for in the same way even when we’re not home to do it!”

“What a blessing Trace is! Her place couldn't be better suited for dog care. A huge fenced in yard front pirch & dog run. She also has 4 Basset hounds!! Lily took immediate attention to Teddy. Such a wonderful time she had.She is so kind, knowledgeable and detailed oriented. My 3 mo Great Pyrenees...Lily Lu felt right @ home. Didn't even look back at me to say goodbye! I have her on speed dial and looking forward to many outings to her home for Lily Lu! She's the best!! So is her grandson, Evan!”

“Jared and Tayler took great care of our pups (Fern and Gilligan) while we were away for a long weekend! We appreciated receiving a photo each day, and it was obvious that Fern and Gilly felt comfortable and safe!”

“Amy did an amazing job making sure my senior dog got all the love and attention he needed. He is having a harder time moving around and she did not hesitate to help him. I sincerely appreciate her and feel extremely comfortable with bringing my old guy over to her place the next time I have to travel.”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! William took such amazing care of our pup—he slept soundly, got plenty of walks, and was treated like family. William was incredibly thoughtful, even sending him home with a sweet gift bag, a magnet with his picture, and a heartfelt card. We felt so at ease knowing our dog was in such loving and attentive hands. Highly recommend William to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet like their own. Thank you so much!”

“We are very grateful that we found Brenda and Alvin. Our dog, Cleo had a great time with them and their communication was excellent. Cleo will certainly be going back to stay with them again. Thank you Brenda and Alvin.”
