“It was my first time having Kathy take care of my pup while we went out of town. While he was excited to see me when I picked him up, he continued to follow Kathy around - a good sign he was well cared for! She sent pictures and gave me updates on how things were going during his stay and I appreciated that. I would definitely have her watch Domino again.”

“Bennet took such good care of our Bubba. She provided updates, pictures & videos several times a day! To be able to leave him in such good care really put my mind at ease. I would wholeheartedly recommend Bennet and I look forward to booking again in the future. Thank you so much, Bennet!”



“Edward gave me updates and a video, even in the short time Petey was there. He treated him his own including letting him sleep with them. I will leave Petey there again if need be.”


“Great sitter! Sent pictures how my Harley was doing. Great picture! Harley was very happy with Kim. Kim was very kind and patient with Hailey. I felt Harley was very safe with Kim and she spoiled him like he was one of her own. Excellent 👌.”



“When we arrived at Shannon’s home, Archie ran to the door. He was so excited to stay for the second time. I felt the same way. During our absence, we received pictures several times. Shannon communicates well. Her smile is consistent with her loving care and flexibility to accommodate our schedule. I am so glad I got to know her and grateful for her care of our beloved dog. Without her, needing to leave Archie would result in much worry. With him in her care I know he is safe and having a wonderful time”

“I am SO HAPPY we found Larissa! She is sweet, easy to talk with, and most importantly, amazing with Carini! She loved staying with her for a week. Larissa sent me updates and pictures every day and I could tell how great of a time my girl was having. Safe to say, we'll be doing some daycare days in the future so she can see them again ??”


“Jennifer (and her family) were absolutely amazing with our pup. I whole heartedly would recommend her to anyone. I received many pictures and updates on how he was doing during his stay. He came home loved and happy. Jennifer goes beyond what is expected and I truly believed loved him as his own. Great!! Great!! Great!!!”


“Kumar took such good care of my dog! He was gentle, kind, fed him with very specific instructions and made my dog feel at home in his apartment. He sent photos and updates daily. I would highly recommend him as a dog sitter!”


“Marv had a great time staying with Jessica and her fellow beagle, Barry. We had just adopted Marv and we were nervous leaving him for so long but he did great and seemed very happy when we went to pick him up. We will leave Marv with Jessica and Barry again!”


“Jennifer was amazing with our two 1 year old pups. She is great at reading dog behavior and even helped train them a bit while they stayed. She kept in touch and sent pictures while we were gone too. She was very responsive to all my messages and concerns. She really did care for them like we would have! They also made friends with a few of her dogs. She was amazing and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter or trainer with experience!”


“Cristina was absolutely fantastic! I was very anxious leaving our newest dog with someone for the first time, and I let her know that so she made sure to send me multiple updates/photos during the day which was greatly appreciated by me! She took great care of my Mocha, and has a beautiful and clean home with a very nice fenced backyard 😊 Highly recommend, and will use her again in the future.”


“Ashly was great! Very accommodating to our schedule and to our boy Hank. We had an enjoyable and relaxing get away knowing Hank was well taken care of! Highly recommend, and will definitely call Ashley again when we are in the area next summer!”

“Amanda provided exceptional care for our high-maintenance dog, Brock. Safety was a priority, and her facility (aptly named "Vacation Paws") thoughtfully designed. Brock didn't want to leave! Highly recommend Vacation Paws for anyone seeking top-notch pet care.”
