1. Lisa W.
“Lisa and her daughter took wonderful care of my anxious chihuahua! During Fin’s stay, they took her to the park and gave her so many snuggles! We will be booking with her again! 🩷🐾”
2. Michelle M.
“Michelle has been an exceptional sitter for our standard poodle. He enjoys daily park visits, swimming and lots of cuddles. It’s definitely a treat when our baby gets to stay with Michelle. Michelle is the kindest caretaker we have come across. She sends many pictures and videos to assure you that your baby is happy. We are return clients and happy for her services. She is reliable and flexible when emergencies arise. Thank you Michelle, you’re the BEST!!!”
3. Christina K.
“Fizzgig had a great experience, and came back better behaved then when I left her. They all clearly had a lot of fun and Christina was quick to communicate when needed!”
4. Susan H.
“My puppy had a great time with Susan! He came home happy after an overnight. Susan was easy to communicate with, responded quickly and sent updates. Very nice experience.”
5. Allyson H.
“Great experience. Allyson was loving and enthusiastic toward my pup and sent pictures while I was gone. She drove some distance to pick him up and to return him. She paid attention to details of my dog's diet issues, and gave him plenty of exercise which he loves. Highly recommend her!”
6. Lenore K.
“Lenore was absolutely fantastic—better than I could’ve hoped for, especially since it was a last-minute booking for 3 nights! She went above and beyond with our dog: videos, photos, long walks, feeding him special food since he wasn’t feeling his best, and just taking really good care of him. What stood out to me was how much time she genuinely spent with our dog. You can tell when someone’s just going through the motions, but not Lenore. She was present, communicative, and you could feel that she really cared. Her own dog—a 2-year-old lab-shepherd mix—played so well with ours. They got along like old pals, which was a huge relief during their time together. I’d trust Lenore again in a heartbeat.”
7. Matthew K.
“Thanks Matthew for taking care of Lilbit while I recovered from surgery. Matthew sent photos and Lilbit seemed very comfortable at Matthew’s.”
8. Sophia C.
“As a pet owner who is way too attached to her dog, I enthusiastically recommend Sophia as a conscientious and caring pet sitter. I know that she will care for my dog as I would. The services she provides go above and beyond. She was so sweet the first time she took care of my dog by sending me text messages and pictures. It is reassuring knowing when I am away that my dog is being cared for and loved. Thank you so much Sophia.”
9. Laurel J.
“My dog loved being with Laurel. So much so that she trotted up to the front door, wagging her tail the entire time when we returned. Loved the daily updates. I could tell Gigi had a great time as she was relaxed and happy when I picked her up.”
10. Erin W.
“Our fur baby, Ali, didn’t seem distressed or unhappy when we picked him up after spending a day at the Erin’s. Erin sent us several pictures of Ali and he seemed content and laidback, maybe a bit confused as to why he was there?. We are very satisfied with Erin and will definitely leave Ali with her again.”
11. Dolly L.
“This is our first time dropping our dog off to stay somewhere overnight. Dolly put all our nervousness to rest. She is very knowledgeable about dogs. It was evident from the videos and pictures she sent that our dog was having a great time! She got lots of exercise and play time, and we would gladly trust Dolly with her again. Our dog was not sure she wanted to leave when we came to pick her up!”
12. Carol S.
“Carol is simply one of the best in her care for animals and for our aging dog who needed extra attention. She treated Bailey like he was one of her own. We will definitely use her again.”
13. Kelsey W.
“Kelsey was great, we'd look to have our dog Kobi stay with her again. Always quick to respond. She gave thoughtful feedback about Kobi's behavior, diet, and medication. Kobi clearly liked Kelsey and her pets and family.”
14. Morgan B.
“Morgan is great!! She was on time to pick up our pups, sent loads of photos and updates! You for sure won’t worry about your pups with her! Thank you Morgan!!”
15. Brooklyn A.
“Brooklyn went above and beyond to accommodate Waffles and his car anxiety. He had a wonderful time with her and her pups (especially Tuna). I would not hesitate to leave Waffles with her again, or to recommend her to other pet parents.”
16. Trevor & Karen H.
“Trevor and Karen came through for us when our dog sitter fell through close to our trip date. They provided our Cavalier a sweet space to stay with plenty of attention and kept us in the loop with photos and updates. We really appreciated all of the effort and communication!”
17. Kelsey M.
“I’m so happy to have found Kelsey. It was my first time boarding Momo so I was a little anxious. I knew she’d be in home hands once I dropped her off. Kelsey was calm, attentive and knowledgeable. He responded quickly and sent a lot of pictures throughout the day. We highly recommend Kelsey and would love to come back.”
18. Valerie D.
“We LOVE Valerie! We went on an extended vacation out of the country, and felt totally confident and comfortable leaving our bulldog with her. He was spoiled rotten and even got to join her family on a day trip to the snow! He had a little medical issue while staying with her, and she documented with photos (for the vet), and was willing to take him to the vet since we were so far away. That took away our feeling of helplessness in the situation. We will 1,000% use her again (and again)!”
19. Hilary S.
“We are so thankful that we found Hillary and her family to help care for our dog! She is absolutely great! Our dog came back, healthy and happy! We have no reservation booking with Hilary again and will definitely do so! Thanks so much Hilary and family!”
20. Hanna D.
“Hanna was a great communicator and easy to work with. Henry seemed happy and at peace. Would definitely let Henry stay with her again!”
