“Jennifer was an excellent pet sitter for our girls. Her communication skills were solid. She was knowledgeable, reliable and always on time. We came home to a clean home and happy puppies😊. We look forward to having her again.”
3. Christine S.
“We are so grateful that Christine was available to watch our 2 dogs all day/evening while we were on a day trip! She was so communicative and shared tons of pictures and updates for us which helped us feel at ease. She was very responsive and helpful if we needed her to do something specific with them. She left the home clean too. We came back very late to happy and tired dogs and would 100% use her again!!”

“She did great! House was clean when we returned, we got pictures of the pups while we were gone, and they seemed happy when we got home. No complaints!”

“Debra was AWESOME!!!! She was so good with our pups, and she followed their schedule, which is important in older dogs! She sent lots of pictures and updates and asked questions when she was unsure of something. She went above and beyond by taking our trash out, washing the sheets and making the bed she slept in, and making sure the house was nice and clean when we got home. I will DEFINITELY be utilizing Debra to watch our pups again!!!”
10. Nina M.
“Truly 5 stars! Gertie is our bulldog and can be a challenging breed, but Nina was amazing and so special to our little loved one. Gertie misses her for sure! Highly recommend, professional, safe and warm.... never worried about our pup or our home.”

13. Emily P.
“Emily watched our dachshund for the weekend and Max enjoyed every minute of it. She spent lots of time with him and gave him lots of cuddles. We will definitely be using Emily again”
14. Dixan H.
“Dixan was fantastic. She did a wonderful job taking care of my elder dog. It’s always difficult to be away from your fur baby when they require more care and attention so it was a great relief to have someone care for her so well.”
15. Juan S.
“Juan worked under me as a kennel assistant for over a year. He has proven on multiple occasions that he has a caring towards animals and has a work ethic above and beyond his peers.”
16. Errin J.
“Absolutely wonderful experience with Errin!! She went above and beyond for our dogs (extra walks!) and above and beyond for us. She took out the trash cans on trash day and even washed the sheets and remade the bed in the guest room! Very thoughtful gesture and it really makes a difference when coming back from a trip and already having a ton to unpack and clean! She also brushed our doodle and rearranged her schedule to be available for a last minute delivery we had. We will certainly use her again.”
17. Eva C.
“Eva was awesome! Eva stayed with our three frenchies while we were out of town. I highly recommend her. We will definitely contact her again when we leave town.”
18. Heather N.
“Heather was great with our boys! She took excellent care of them and our home. I am very pleased with her services and my 3 boys are more spoiled than when we left them! Definitely recommend 😊”
19. Beth R.
“Beth took extra special care of our nervous poodle when a tropical storm happened to hit while we were gone. She was concerned when our poodle had trouble sleeping and figured out a way to make her more comfortable. Beth was really flexible even though we had to change a couple things about our original plan.”
20. Lisa G.
“Lisa was wonderful with our dog. She took the time to meet with us prior to her visit and she read all of my notes. Lisa was okay with dealings with his expansive list of medical issues and medication administration. She sent us pictures while we were away and made sure to communicate with us. Lisa has gone above and beyond for us. She stayed at our home and let Nuggs sleep next to her. They made great friends and left our house really tidy. We absolutely recommend Lisa to sit for your dog. She was fabulous! We want to keep her all to ourselves. ???”
