Julie and Brian were amazing! My dog, Java had surgery on her mind and two days prior to her sit. She was very well taken care of and handled with kindness and gentleness. I highly recommend them as sitters. Java was comfortable with their dog and snuggled with them on their couch.

Teri is amazing! I knew my senior dog was in the best of hands from the time we first communicated online. She wanted to make sure he had all his shots and even communicated with my vet with questions she had about him. Everyday Teri texted me with photos and videos of how he was doing. He is a 15 1/2 year old senior dog and this was his first experience at boarding with other dogs. So I was a little concerned how he would do in a new situation. However, I had full confidence that Teri could handle any situation that would come up. Teri is a wonderful, responsible dog sitter, Someone who will be truly dedicated to loving and taking care of your dog!

Our fur baby, McKenna, stayed with Angela and Kenneth this past weekend and had an obvious blast. We enjoyed getting the pics and videos showing all the activities they were doing with her. They really treated her like their own and took exceptional care of her. We are looking forward to having her stay with them again! Highly recommend!

Highly recommend Jaime to watch your dog and/or visit your cat while away! I was fortunate enough to find Jaime for our most recent trip to watch our dog Kodi (13 Year Old Lab/Aussie Mix) and to visit our cat Louis (6 Year Old Bengal) during our trip. Jaime was very responsive, sent updates, and is a knowledgeable/aware sitter. Her home is great for pets as well. Kodi seemed to have a great time with her and we’ll look forward to having her stay again.

She is responsive and very reliable, and she obviously loves dogs. We feel completely comfortable with her caring for our pups when we travel.

Laurie watched Tucker over a weekend and provided me with picture updates multiple times a day as well as random text updates on how he was doing. When it came to dropping off and picking up Tucker, she was incredibly flexible with times and made it super easy every step of the way. I absolutely recommend Laurie and hopefully can have her watch Tucker in the future!

I can’t say enough great things about the care my dog received! From the very beginning, communication was clear, friendly, and professional. I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog knowing they would be in such good hands. They went above and beyond to make sure my dog felt safe, happy, and loved. I received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was obvious my dog was getting plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. When I picked my dog up, they were relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for. It truly felt like my dog was treated like family.
