“Eileen was great with our puppy Buck! very simply Buck hesitated to come to us after spending the weekend with Eileen:) she patiently answered both me and my daughter texting her frequently to ask about Buck! I recommend her highly, and am glad that I found someone to babysit buck when we are gone.”
6. Jennifer S.
“Jennifer and her family were great! Angus used to come home from the kennel feeling nervous and tired, but not from Jennifer's house. Angus got so much individual attention (which he loves dearly), and was clearly very happy there. I will book with Jennifer again for sure.”
7. Lori M.

16. Joyce A.
“Joyce Alla has taken care of my pets for more than 20 years. She is the only care giver who tends to them as well as I would- constant love, play time, walks, cuddles. She adores animals and when I come home, my pets are as happy as can be. It’s the best feeling to know I have someone like Joyce who is loving, dependable, kind, responsive and trustworthy.”
17. Felicia A.
“Felicia and her family were AMAZING. Our pup is anxious and they made sure to take extra good care of her and were in good communication with us the entire time. Kind, super easy to work with, and thoughtful. I knew our pup was in good hands and could enjoy our vacation!”
18. Denny T.
“I had a great experience with Denny! She stepped in at the last minute & took such great care of my dog. She kept me updated with pictures & videos, which made me feel at ease. My dog looked happy and relaxed throughout the whole time. I’ll definitely be booking her again in the future!”
19. Evan R.
“Evan is a kind, responsible and trustworthy individual whom I’ve known personally for over 5 years. He has worked for our family for the past 3 1/2 years in multiple capacities, including caring for my dog, cat and child. I was fortunate enough to live in the same building as Evan, so I often hired him for weekend care and vacations, in addition to the daily dog walks. We adored him so much, that he also became a personal care attendant for my child with special needs. I highly recommend Evan to care for your fur babies.”
20. Krista K.
“Krista is absolutely AMAZING!!!! She sent me pics everyday of how much fun my babies were having with her. I would recommend her 100000000%”
