“Hillary and her family were great! They took care of Mimi as if she was their own. I appreciate all of the messages, pictures and videos sent to keep me updated while away and will definitely use her again.”
“Brittany was able to answer many questions and provide a meet and greet prior to watching Bean. I had already met with 5 other sitters who weren't the right fit. Brittany came prepared to also ask me questions to Better understand how to best care for Bean. Lima Bean had a great stay even with thunderstorms present which causes her the most anxiety. She was spoiled and even came home with a cute Bandana. Brittany understood how important it was for me to receive multiple updates a day that encompassed pictures. This eased my mind that she was doing well. I would definitely recommend Brittany due to her pet knowledge and friendly personality.”
“Our cat spent three weeks under Paul and Terri’s care. We received regular updates on our cat, and it was apparent they treated our kitty as if he was their own. His living conditions and care was superb. When we picked up our cat, he was super relaxed and in great condition. Kudos to Paul and Terri for being so caring and professional boarding animals left in their care.”
“Tera took care of Bella as if she was her own. Bella loved it there. I highly recommend her loving care to any family that needs to board their animal. Bella will always be with Ms. Tera when I come to Virginia Beach. I gave her a tip as well! Wish I had more!!! She deserves it!!!”
“Wonderful!! The first vacation we didn't worry how Molly was doing. Jeff and Barb were wonderful about sending daily updates and pictures of Molly. She was well taken care of and became a part of their family for Molly's stay with them. I highly recommend Jeff S. to take care of your pets while you are out of town! Thank you to the Jeff and Barbs family!!”

“This was our first time leaving our pup with anyone but family and I was really nervous. I was able to meet them before hand and see how Chloe responded. Chloe instantly relaxed and Lisa happily answered all my questions. We were sent pictures and updates daily that eased our minds further. When I picked her up she wasn't running to the car so I know she enjoyed her stay. Lisa was also awesome when our flight got delayed and we had to change times around. We will 100% book again.”
“Melissa was an excellent babysitter for Sassy and Reaper, especially on short notice. She was highly communicative, provided plenty of pictures, and made us feel at ease knowing they were safe and well cared for. Both Reaper and Sassy clearly enjoyed their stay—they came home completely passed out! We will definitely be back. Thank you so much. Highly recommend!”
“This was the longest I have ever been away from Simba (8 days)…he started off slow but Priscilla took care of him as if he was her own. She didn’t hide the fact that he was sad the 1st night…many sitters would have just said he is doing great. She made him feel at home and loved on him like I would. I appreciate Priscilla’s commitment and would highly recommend her for your pet.”
