“Excellent and reliable. I got stuck in another state for an extra day due to a flight cancellation, and she was so helpful with watching my dog extra and flexible with a last minute change in plans. Used her services multiple times and always satisfied!”
“Our dog Layla had the best time and was treated like family! She was well taken care of and loved on by the whole family which gave me peace of mind while out of town. I would highly recommend this family to take care of any pet while you are away.”
“Kimberly is the best sitter we’ve ever had, hands-down. She jumped in to cover an unexpected weekend with our two elderly and terminally ill pups, and exceeded our highest hopes for their care. She was highly experienced, and therefore highly attentive to, our high-need Shih Tzu, administering several medications a day and asking excellent follow-up questions to ensure the best care. Charlie and Mochi enjoyed safe, cozy places to rest, ample walks and even their first ride in a stroller when it was too rainy for them to enjoy a walk. We highly recommend Kimberly and will absolutely seek her out again when back in the D.C. area.”
“Jeanne gives my doggies a lot of exercise & fun with other pups! There are 2 large fenced in areas for them to play & they always seem so content in the picture updates!”
“Nicholas has been taken care of Napo I think almost for 2 years now! He’s an excellent sitter and take care of your dog like his own! Thanks Nicholas and family for making our dog feeling at home!”
“Cannot come up enough good words to describe Jaclyn and the service she provides for all dogs! Our dog’s first stay with her was for a week and we never once felt concerned about the stay. We are so happy to have met Jaclyn!”
“Khaila was amazing in every way. Great communicaiton. Met the dogs quickly after a request to ensure compatibility. Took amazing care of my two labradors, and kept me up to date on their daily activities, and is just a kind person. I would HIGHLY recommend booking her if you need help with your pets!”
“Diana was absolutely amazing with Nash! I can’t wait to use her services again! Nash went on plenty of walks her property is a dogs heaven. She sent so many pictures and updates! Truly the best possible experience!”
“If I could give more than 5 stars I would. From my first communication with Savanna, to meeting, drop off, pick up the entire process was a great experience. I received daily updates as well, it was nice to see and hear how their stay was going. I felt like I left my dogs with family, people who loved and cared for them as we would!!!”
“Janice was wonderful. She accommodated us when we needed to make changes to our booking. She sent pictures and let us know how Sophia was doing. Sophia took to Janice immediately. She was exceptional in every way. We highly recommend her services.”
“Can't say enough good things about Briana's care for my often-anxious dog. I was concerned about leaving him for 10 days in a new situation, but he became a welcome member of the family from the get-go. Thanks to the warmth and kind attention he received, he blossomed while I was away. I'm so very glad we found Briana and her family!”
“Kyle and Kaleigh have the perfect set up to watch our dog. We were completely comfortable leaving our pup with them and they were awesome about sending us pictures and communicating on how our dog was doing”
“Connor was great with our dog Bolt! This was our first time going through the app, she made it very easy. We were bringing Bolt to a boarding place nearby but would always feel very on edge and worrying while on vacation. He would come home from the boarding place and his elbows were very rough and red and he would be so thirsty. I picked him up from Connor and he was fine, like he never left home. He was a little tired but that’s to be expected going to a new place. Connor’s house was clean and she has a very nice yard and large covered porch she sat under with him. She was easy to communicate with and flexible. As soon as I met her and she met my dog, I knew we were going to be good! I plan to bring him to her again soon and will continue to for as long as I can!”
“Really satisfied. Cody and Cassidy are very warm, loving and friendly as well as their daughter. Good communication and photos were also sent. Would certainly recommend them and do it again. Thank you.”
About: I grew up around all sorts of animals. We always had a dog and a cat or two. We also had birds and a bunny and also a hamster. I love walking and playing with dogs and I get along with all different breeds and sizes. I don’t currently have a full time job so I’m available pretty much anytime. I’m available for boarding and visits during the week and weekends. I have a good sized unfenced yard with a half an acre of woods in the back. I also have a dog of my own who loves other dogs and would love a playmate. I can crate your dog if needed.
“Louise is so happy getting out of the car at Elisabeth’s. She is so well cared for and Elisabeth always sends updates of what she’s up to and how much fun she’s having. So grateful to Elisabeth and highly recommend her and her sweet dogs!!”
“Katie was great about sending me pictures and updating me on the pet stay. My dog is pretty easy but my cat is old and has some health issues. Katie took great care of both of them and was not the least phased by the cats challenges. Will happily use her for pet care again!”
“Becky was great. She accepted the booking quickly and communicated well throughout. The photos showed a group of very happy dogs - these are some of my favorite photos of my little guy. My dog can't bear to be left alone and is a sweet but insistent snuggler. He also gets the zoomies when he is nervous. She welcomed him with open arms and settled him quickly. She was sorry to see him leave, but he will definitely be back!”
“Trisha is very kind and flexible, and I felt very reassured to leave my somewhat nervous little dog with her for her first time away from family members. She is communicative with pictures and prompt responses. Best of all, I felt like she appreciated my furry friend!”
