“Amy was fantastic for our dog Daisy during a 1 week trip we took in April 2023. Her communication before and during the stay were excellent, and Amy kept our dog on schedule for the variety of medicines that she needed (during meals and at other points throughout the day). That gave us the peace of mind to focus on enjoying our trip without worrying about the safety or comfort of our family dog. Thank you Amy!”


“Pepper had a great time. Sarah sent lots of pictures of Pepper’s stay. Pepper got lots of exercise and was pooped from her exciting tome. I would definitely recommend Sarah and will use her services again.”


“Excellent sitter. She was so professional and caring. She walked him she played with him. I got pictures everyday. Bruno got along with her baby. They became good buddies. I can tell Bruno miss Snoop her pet. When I have to go away again I definitely want Myrna to be the sitter. You will feel good about leaving your pet with her”



“Simply fantastic! Jay makes things so easy and less worrisome when we have to leave our beloved furry kids behind. She sends pictures throughout the day and makes sure my 2 dogs maintain their feeding schedule and daily walks as they are used at home. This is now their vacation home. I’m so glad I found you, Jay, thanks!”


“Raye is the best! She was very responsive and kept me frequently updated. She took Hugo everywhere, the park, drive in cinema, on a hike. I think now I’ll have to level up my play game. Also, she was pretty flexible, my flight was canceled and that was very helpful.”


“Matt was fantastic! He sent plenty of updates and pictures on how our dog was doing. Our dog is prone to environmental allergies and Matt was very communicative when he saw our dog getting itchy- he helped provide Benadryl with our confirmation and made sure to keep a close eye on our dog while we were away! Thank you very much!!”


“Julie was absolutely wonderful, I highly recommend and am really grateful for her thoughtful care of my elderly pup! It was helpful knowing my dog was in good company and enjoying all the smells and sunny spots in her nice backyard.”



“Cyndi was nothing short of amazing while taking care of our dog Birdie for a week! We were in constant communication as she sent me messages and pictures of her every morning and night. In all of the pictures, Birdie looked so comfortable and I know that Cyndi took care of our girl like her own!”


“Omg amazing. She is a life saver I had a last min issue with my last booker and she came in and saved the day. Very responsive sent pictures. I even forgot some of their stuff and she had back up. I highly recommend”


“Peyton did an awesome job sending pictures and keeping me informed. My dog was relaxed and happy when I picked him up. Will definitely use her services again!”


“Nicole was a great sitter! She provided daily updates and answered right away when I had any questions. My dog had a great time staying there. She was in good hands and would definitely book with Nicole again!”


“Christine was an amazing sitter! She took great care of my high energy puppy and was very flexible with adding an extra day to the booking. She sent pictures and updates and it seemed like my puppy was having a fantastic time, and she came home happy and tired! I immediately asked Christine if she could sit for us again for an upcoming trip and would gladly recommend her to others!”



“Damacia was a God sent especially at the last minute and having availability on a holiday weekend! I could tell right away that she loves what she does. She kept me informed on my Bentley’s playtime, eating and how he settled in with the other dogs! She even sent pictures of his interactions throughout the day! I will definitely be using Damacia in the future!”


“Jeffrey was fantastic with my dog! He sent me lots of updates and pictures while I was away, so I was always confident that Malcolm was being well taken care of. I also appreciated that Jeffrey was happy to take Malcolm on good walks and also cuddle with him when they were just hanging out. I highly recommend this Rover!”


“Dewi and I have had a wonderful first experience boarding with Alex! I was out of the country for two weeks, but always could tell form the updates, photos and videos that my gentle old man was in the best of care. Especially loved seeing him get special attention on his 15th birthday! Alex has much experience with all types of dogs, and it shows. Very professional. Thank you so much!”


“They always treat our dog with the utmost respect and care. We feel their home is an extension of our own. Couldn’t be happier to have them watch our baby”

This is my 4th time using Taryn as a sitter for my dog and she is perfect! She is the only sitter my dog has stayed with, & for a reason. I know he enjoys his time with her, when I’m out of town, and am forever grateful for how she treats him. He seems extremely comfortable with her. Thank you Taryn💕
