“Denise was great! She communicated well prior to the trip, sent pictures and updates during Bailey’s stay per my request and was very kind and sweet. Bailey is a small dog with a big personality and grouchy at times and she did well with him. Would recommend and book her again!”
“Madison took great care of my little senior. She provided me updates and pictures. My girl was as perfect when I picked her up as she was when I dropped her off. Would recommend!”
“Sabrina is wonderful! She took my puppy last minute for almost a week. She yook great care of him and sent pictures everyday. I highly recommend her.”
“Excellent job boarding our Great Dane. They were communicative and did a great job anccomidating our senior dog. We will definitely use Dylan for future bookings.”
“We had Ying watch our kitty cat, Mr. Ribs, for a week while we were away. He was a fantastic cat sitter. He sent tons of pictures and videos and kept us updated with his sleeping and eating habits. Ying played with Mr. Ribs and kept him entertained. This was comforting for us as the little guy loves people, so leaving him alone or isolated was not an option. Ying was a great companion for the kitty, and we will definitely use him in the future.”
“Erin was at the door waiting for our dogs to escort the dogs into her home for drop off. She also brought the dogs to the door at pick up. The dogs came home, happy and healthy and glad to see us. ✅.”
“Teresa was fabulous, on all levels. Knowing that Remy was been taking care of and having a great time made my vacation more relaxing. Teresa made it a vacation stay for the pup, walks, parks, new experiences - he obviously had a great time. I will definitely use Teresa again.”
“Wonderful experience with Alexis. Excellent communication. She took awesome care of Cooper. I was gone for a week. She sent pictures and updates. He was very happy and I never worried about him. Her love of pets is genuine.”
“Keith and his family were absolutely incredible! I’ve never felt at such ease leaving my girl before. My Luna even has separation anxiety and Keith gave me a ton of updates letting me know how she was doing. She was so exhausted after her stay because their family of five played with her the whole time. Pickup and drop off was extremely easy. I’ve used a ton of dog sitters and Keith’s family was by far the best!!!!”
“Angie was exceptionally at taking care of my Gambit. She made sure to let me know that Gambit was been taking care of and having fun with her doggies by pictures and videos. She even accommodated us with more days due of my flight cancelation so I was very thankful and grateful with her. I would 100 percent recommend her.”
“We are new to the area and were extremely nervous to find a new pet sitter last minute. Cecilia made us feel totally comfortable leaving Marley! She was very accommodating with all our requests, and we knew Marley would be happy with a family with another dog, a yard, and a kid to play with! Marley was very happy when we picked her up and almost seemed sad to leave! She had all of marleys things ready to go when we arrived (nothing missing) and sent us adorable picture updates during our trip! We will definitely use Cecilia again!”
“Katelyn was an amazing host, she was so good with Chaucie, and loved his time with Gus. She was very attentive to him, did everything asked in making him feel comfortable. Sent pictures and video to update me, will definitely use her again”
“My experience booking with Joshua was great! I was in need of a last minute sitter for my dog and Joshua was able to accommodate. I could tell he was very knowledgeable about dogs and my dog enjoyed his stay so much! I didn't have to worry if he was in good hands while I was away. He sent updates the entire time too. I would recommend for any pet parent and book again.”
“Jonathan is a lifesaver! I really appreciate his flexibility and updates. His calming nature really helped Rocko feel comfortable. I would absolutely book again with Jonathan and Nova :)”
“Sarah and Anthony were the perfect sitters for our little dog. They also have a big dog and small dog to keep her company. Their house is very dog friendly as are they, thank you so much for taking such good care of her and sending pictures. This experience could not have been better!”
“Caitlin was easy to communicate with, and her house is perfect for pet sitting, replete with a grassy backyard and dog door. Comfy, clean, welcoming environment. You can tell she really cares for the pets in her charge. Future repeat customer!”

We reached out to Alexis last minute and she came through without hesitation. She watched our two senior chihuahua mixes, who can be a little particular, and handled them like a total pro. Anyone who has had old, small dogs knows they come with some quirks, and Alexis cared for them without missing a beat. What really set her apart was the communication. We received photo updates twice a day showing us exactly how our babies were doing, which gave us so much peace of mind. She also responded to our messages immediately every time we reached out and was so flexible! We picked up to two happy pups, and that says it all. Alexis will be our first call from now on — we can’t recommend her enough!
During my little girl's stay, Claire provided multiple notes and photos each day, as well as some wonderful videos. She knew our routine because of her thoughtful meet and greet process. This gave me great reassurance. Claire also helped my girl, an only dog at home, to become more social and playful with her dogs. I greatly appreciated her thoughtfulness, professionalism, and care.
Leah was very accommodating, and she was an excellent match for Mason. She honored what was a last-minute request, and she definitely went the extra mile in her accommodations. Mason was well-cared for, had a good time, and I look forward to booking with her again soon!
Cooper is always super excited when he gets to spend some nights at Miles and Athena’s house. He adores Miles and enjoys Athena’s company. Athena is an incredibly sweet and affectionate pup with humans and is kind and respectful of visiting fur friends. It’s very hard for me to leave our pup behind when we leave town and so I’m hugely grateful to have found him such a great dogsitter!
The BEST! Dez took such great care of my boy Jackson and sent regular updates with photos. Put me at ease. Jackson had such a great time. I’m so thankful for Dez!! Dez will be my go to from now on. Thank you for the love you showed Jackson! He felt so calm when I returned.
