1. Laura C.

“Laura was super accommodating and kind. Galileo and I just moved to Fl from ct and I needed to head across country for a last minute work trip. Laura made me feel comfortable leaving Galileo in her care and provided updates on how well he was doing.”


2. Katya G.

“Offered time for my pups to explore and reviewed special instructions for my senior dogs with me before I left. Loved the daily updates and photos!! Appreciate you taking care of my girls, Katya!”


3. Sylvia H.

“Stanley loved Sylvia! He was shy when we met her for the introductory meeting beforehand, but at least he wasn’t barking, which is usually the case. He was sad when I left him the day I dropped him off, but not upset. Sylvia sent me so many photos and updates! He slowly made his way to getting closer to her, and now he has a second mom. I wasn’t sure he’d come home with me :P Thank you for taking such good care of my baby, Sylvia!”


4. Yekaterina L.

“Yekaterina was amazing! She was so warm and welcoming, and I immediately felt that my Coco was in good hands. She was attentive to Coco’s needs while I was away, which gave me complete peace of mind. Coco absolutely loves her, and we’ll definitely be seeing her again soon!”

She provided updates with pictures & we were just able to relax on our weekend away. Thank you SO much Hannah for taking in Stella! We definitely will be contacting you again.”


7. Viji R.

“Viji was incredibly communicative and provided frequent updates with pictures, which I really appreciated. When we picked up our dog, he seemed a bit sad, which tells me he truly enjoyed his stay and the companionship of the sitter's little kid. It’s comforting to know he had such a good time! Highly recommend Viji!”

Highly recommend!”

“Paige is very professional, organized and thorough. She knows Chewie's profile and she remembers what Chewie likes, needs and concerns. She sent reminders/checklist also to ensure Chewie's pleasant experience and dog owner's satisfaction. She often gave written updates and photos. When she was not sure, she did not hesitate to ask question, which I appreciate. I am very pleased and satisfied leaving Chewie with her. Chewie easily adjusted to Paige. This won't be the last time we leave Chewie with her. Thank you Paige!”
