“Casey & her brother took extra care of our dog Louis. You can feel how much their dogs are central to their hearts in their home. Casey made herself available for a ‘meet and greet’ before we left our boy with her for the weekend and knew exactly how to handle the situation. She and her brother are conscientious about all dog issues and we will definitely use their services again. Thank you for a smooth process.”

“Mariah was a wonderful sitter for my cat Secret! She made her feel right at home and sent updates and pictures over the weekend☺️ She is also so nice and I would recommend her for anyone needing a sitter in the Dayton Area!”

“Natalie was amazing to my little fur baby!! She was very assuring for mine and my cat’s first boarding experience, sent pictures and updates. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to cat (or dog) board :)”


“Carol and Jessica have proven to be one of the most considerate and kind dog sitters my husband and I have ever had. They offered to watch Dean late into the night because our return flight continued to be delayed. They’re also great about sending photos of our dog throughout the day to ensure our dog, Dean, is doing well. They respond quickly to any messages we send, and Dean loves staying at their place. Carol and Jessica are our forever-Dayton-dog sitters!”
“As always Amber and her husband are amazing. They were particular life savers for this vacation as they were able to work around my strange pick-up/drop-off times and were flexible when our flight got delayed.”

“Lisa was wonderful! This was our first time having to leave our baby with someone that he doesn’t know and it was great. If you want someone who will continually send pictures, videos and updates, Lisa is the one. I will definitely be booking with her again, no doubt about it!”

“I was extremely nervous about leaving my puppy. But Tom was amazing with her. He kept me informed every day on how she was doing. I would never hesitate to leave any of my girls with him. I have already given his name to several people who own Dogs thank you so much Tom. You’re a great Person”

“Heavyn went above and beyond to take care of my boy, I know he was treated like a member of the family while staying with her. She also was great in providing pictures and videos of him throughout his stay! 10/10 recommend 😊”

“I really like how well Britany took care of Jasmine! She was able to watch her at the last minute so that I could take a trip to Rio and spend quality time with my daughter. She took pictures of her every day and sent them to me. She even gave her a bath when she got too muddy on one of her walks. I hope to be able to work with her again soon and I would definitely recommend her to everyone!”

“I felt completely comfortable with Aubry watching my dogs, she sent wonderful pictures of them throughout their visit. I will definitely be sure to use her in the future. I am so glad I found her! Max and Fez loved her too!”

“My dog had an amazing time with Gregory and his family! Not only did he take excellent care of my dog, he help me with some issues I was having with some of his puppy behavior! I would give more stars if I could.”

“My experience with Emily was fantastic. I received regular updates on Lilly complete with pictures and videos of her time there. Lilly came home very happy and energized from her stay. I will definitely use Emily's services again in the future.”

“Abigail was amazing. She was able to make our anxious dog feel right at home. It was the first time we have left him and didn’t need to worry about him for one second. We will use Abigail for all of our future trips. She sent us pictures of them on walks and playing with other dogs. You could tell she really enjoyed having him while we were away.”

“I truly appreciate Amber and her hubby to take care of my fur baby and be response to pick her and drop off safely. I would highly recommend her and would consider for my future needs . Thank you Amber and Derrick ? Alka”

“Very friendly and conscientious. My dogs have stayed with her multiple times and they are thrilled when we pull up. They are excited to see Tammy and her dogs. Highly recommend her.”
“Daphne and her spouse were simply the best. They went out of their way to make my somewhat anxious pup comfortable in their home. I got multiple updates every day about my dog and he was clearly comfortable and loving being in their home. I was so nervous about my dog's anxiety and she really helped set my mind at ease. My dog looked so happy and was probably sad he had to leave ?”

“Amani took great care of our girls while we were away. Amani kept us up to date with pictures, videos and messages. She followed all of our care instructions. The girls loved running and exploring in her large fenced yard! The girls were worn out from all the playtime they got and crashed when they got home. We would definitely recommend Amani to care for your pets!”

“The BEST pet sitter in the area! I’ve used several sitters and interviewed several more - without a doubt, her family treated my girl as one of their own! I had picks sent during her stay, and constant communication that shows she loves what she does ❤️. I even got a progress report and jump drive of videos and picks of her stay. My go to from now on! Thank you and I will be using you again, and again, and again 😍😊”
