3. Lindsey R.

“Lindsey took such great care of our nervous, anxious poodle while we were out of town. Our travel plans changed a bit and she was very flexible. She communicated with us about how our dog was doing and sent pictures and videos, which we really appreciated. She gave our dog the love and cuddles she needed to feel comfortable in a new environment.”


4. Kim & Jon M.

“Kim and Jon were excellent with Tyson when I was gone. They went the extra mile to make him feel comfortable and at home. At times, Tyson can be a lot to handle, but they did great. He had a hard time eating at first, but they took their time and sought advice to make sure they were doing everything they could so that Tyson was well taken care of. it was nice to go on a 4 day vacation knowing my dog was gonna be well taken care of”

“was the longest my mini doodle had been with anyone except family. jade took great care of my mini doodle. i knew my dog probably wouldn't eat much while being away from home and had updates throughout her stay assuring me that my dog was doing well. will use jade again if in need of a sitter. also noted, i didn't schedule in advance and requested jade's services without much notice. very much appreciate that we were able to adjust pickup and drop off times to fit both our schedules.”

We hope to use her again in the future. Thanks so much Hailey!!”

Jax made a friend while there and seemed to do really well. We will definitely take him there again! (If they will take him 😉)”


19. Randilyn & Jared W.


“Honestly the best stay my dog has ever had. 😍😍 Our pup was so happy when we came and picked him up. I absolutely LOVED the daily communication about how my dog was doing and the sweet update pictures. It put my mind at ease knowing how well taken care of our fur baby was. Communication was top notch the entire time. We went home with a surprise drawing and sweet note from their kiddos and some milk bones treats for our dog as a parting gift!! What an amazing experience. Will book again in the future.”


20. Maddie & Sam B.

“"TRUE" Dog People! My 2 Pomsky's Murphy & Maya had a fabulous time at Maddie & Sam's house. They love their grassy backyard and all the attention they got. I would HIGHLY recommend anyone in the SLC area to have their fur babies watched by this couple. It was a TOP notch experience from start to finish. Loved the Picture & Video updates to see them having so much time.”
