“Yekaterina was an amazing sitter! This was my first time boarding my 10-month-old kitten, and also the longest I have been away from my kitten since getting her. Yekaterina was so sweet in reassuring me my kitten would be well taken care of and genuinely felt better after dropping her off. She has a beautiful and clean home. She sent LOTS of photos, she gets it! She even sent me videos, which made me feel so much better about how my cat was feeling. I would trust her again with my fur baby.”
“Katya was beyond amazing. She took fantastic care of my dog, provided daily updates, and kept my mind at ease the whole time. She was so kind and flexible when I had travel issues. She clearly works hard to make this a great experience for both owners and the pets. Thank you so much, Katya!! Highly highly recommend”
“Marlena was absolutely amazing with our dog, Winnie! From the moment we dropped her off, we felt completely at ease knowing she was in great hands. Marlena sent us daily updates and adorable pictures that showed how happy and comfortable Winnie was the entire time. It’s clear that she truly loves and understands dogs. Winnie came back happy, healthy, and well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, Marlena is the best! Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and loving to watch their pup.”

“Emma and Adam were amazing and we are so grateful they were willing to take on our 2 challenging pups for a week. A big huge thank you to their sweet pup Patrick for putting up with our pups. Emma sent pics and updates regularly and kept them on a routine with plenty of walks and exercise. I was super nervous to leave them with someone new for so long but she put my mind at ease and was super supportive. We would not hesitate to have her watch our pups again.”

“My dog was very comfortable & it was obvious in all the pictures that he was feeling happy and safe. Maria took him for walks and made sure he got plenty of outside time, which was perfect. We’ll definitely be back!”

She even taught her how to sleep without being in a crate or in the bed with us and she is doing well not messing in the house when we are resting! I am so grateful! We booked again and will continue to book every trip we can with her and her amazing family!”
“Brandon was incredibly friendly from start to finish. He genuinely loves animals and his warm demeanor made both me and my pet feel instantly at ease.

Communication was top of mind as I received updates and photos which increased my level of comfort.”
“This decision to allow Sherri to care for my fur baby was far one of my best decisions I was so happy with outcome and the care they took with Polo. By far exceeded my expectations. Thank you Sherri and Kyle”
“Lala was fantastic! She came a little earlier to pick up Cleopatra because of a conflict that arose. On top of that, she kept her a little bit longer than prearranged delivery back home. She sent pictures and descriptions of Cleopatra’s mood and she did much better than I expected.(the cat, not Lala ;)). We definitely recommend her and would use her again.!!”

If you want your pet to be safe,comfortable and loved by someone other than yourself then look no further!! The updates she sends are top notch!! I can not express my gratitude for her service!!”
“Chrissy took us in after our rover cancelled last minute before my trip! She sent pictures of Bubba and took him on a walk. He had plenty of friends to play with and had so much fun under her care. She also labeled his bowels and food which I thought was a great way to stay organized. Chrissy was very professional and kind. We would definitely book Chrissy again!”
“What a great boarding experience! Our dog was treated like a family member and had a blast! Em had clear and constant communication throughout the entire stay and sent photos of our pup everyday! We will be booking with her again!”
“Brook kept my Lucy for 6 nights, I am very happy with her service. She sent multiple pictures of Lucy during her time there ensuring she was having a good time.This was the first time ever using a pet sitting service as I’ve always been skeptical of leaving her with strangers. I feel like Lucy fit right in with Brooks family and will definitely use her services again. Our vacation was so much more relaxed without the stress of traveling with a dog. Thanks Brook and family for taking such good care of Lucy”
