1. Hollyanne & Donovan E.
“Truly the best dog sitters I’ve ever had! and Donovan are both amazing people and really love animals. They made sure my boy had plenty of space, exercise, and toys to play with. She sent tons of pictures and videos and kept me up to date the entire time. I won’t ever go to another sitter unless they’re not available! Your pup is in good hands with them!”
2. Nia B.
“Amazing sitter that made my little man feel so welcomed! Panda is a big sweet goofball that I could tell from the pictures played so great with my guy!! Definitely will be using her as a sitter regularly now!”
3. Jason H.
“Jason is fantastic! I can’t recommend him enough! Our cattle dog Ruby stayed with Jason for three weeks while we were abroad and she was so happy and well cared for. Jason and his family showered her with love, daily walks, and top-notch care. Ruby can be shy and nervous, but she took to Jason right away, he is a true dog whisperer. Jason is fantastic with communication and really easy to work with. He was able to accommodate an oversight on my part and adjust our dates last minute, we greatly appreciated the flexibility! We are so thankful to have found Jason and will certainly use him again as our favorite pet sitter!”

“Sam is awesome! I've taken my dog to Sam several times over the past year and every time has been a great experience. He's great at keeping me up to date on how my pup is doing, so I can rest easy and enjoy my trips knowing my pup is happy and doing well. I never worry about leaving my dog with Sam.”
13. Jenny W.

18. Robin & Rahn D.
“Ruby loves Robin and Rahn so much! Ruby is a goofy, neurotic Border Collie mix rescue, and she seems to revel in the attention and love she receives when she stays with them. She has stayed there several times, and we always try to plan our vacations and staycations around their availability. Robin sends frequent, reassuring and adorable videos and photos and truly loves dogs. I can't recommend them highly enough. Thank you, Robin and Rahn!”
