“We were so happy to find a dog sitter in the Bristol area, after our former sitter retired. Ken is very personable and loves dogs. Our Maltipoo has separation anxiety and seemingly needs extra attention and assurance when we are away. Ken kept in touch with photos and updates, to let us know that Murphy was adjusting and doing well. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing his services.”


“I have an almost 15 year old doodle and a 4 year old. Tara was very attentive to their individual needs. The 15 year old needs medicated 3 times a day and she did a great job of getting her to take her medicine. The 4 year old is much higher energy so she took her on supplemental walks. The girls enjoyed their stay very much. I recommend her highly for your pups!”


“Kelley has been absolutely amazing with my dogs! Thank you for all the photos and FaceTimes! Without a doubt, I would use your services again. Thank you for taking such great care of Aubri and Remi! 💛”


“Alyson was awsome, she accommodated me very last minute. Because of her I was able to make my trip, thank you Alyson and thanks to your mom also. She and her mom took very good care of my lab Marley and I can tell he was happy and enjoy his stay?. Oh and even better Alyson has dogs of her own so my Marley had playmates for his stay.”


“We are so happy we found Fran! Fran was wonderful with our pup Lupine. She took her walking, on play dates, and let her snuggle with her. Staying with Fran was like a puppy vacation for our girl. I highly recommend Fran!”


“Carola is so caring and knowledgeable about all things dog. My dog had a great time and came home relaxed and healthy. The environment is perfect for relaxing inside and playing outside. She loved her bonus siblings and walks. Thank you so much!”


“Ms Jennifer was an awesome sitter for my girls & we will definitely use her again... her home was clean, she replied with any questions I had right away, she kept me updated on how my girls were doing thru-out the day by sending me pictures, and she has a joyful loving spirit... we appreciate her”


“Dusty loved spending the night with Cassandra. She sent me lots of pictures of her and made sure she got all of her medicine since she had an injury on her knee. I'll definitely use her again in the future.”


“Grady had a great weekend with Hunter and her family. She sent updates and pictures regularly which definitely put us at ease knowing Grady was being well cared for. We highly recommend Hunter and I know Grady would agree!”


“Kourtney is obviously an animal lover. We had a need to drop our pup with Kourtney without a meet and greet, which might have been risky. But when we met her as it turned out, it was a good risk. Our pup Lucy seemed very at ease staying with her.”


“Leigha took such good care of Buddy while we were away on a 10 day mission trip to El Salvador. She and her family went above and beyond to make him feel at home and loved. She also kept us updated with pictures and texts every day. I would highly recommend Leigha”



“Melissa did an amazing job with our puppy, Millie! She was great to communicate with and Millie had a great time staying there over the long weekend. She even went above and beyond to sew up Millie's bed for us after Millie had an exciting night of chewing it all to pieces. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”


“Faith was absolutely fantastic! She responded quickly and sent lots of pictures and videos of my fur boi. He was extremely happy in all of his pictures and videos and when I picked him up he was worn out and happy from his personal vacation with Faith and Moxie. I can’t imagine taking him to anyone else ever again.”


“Gracie watches Pebbles for 3 nights and 4 days. She sent updates during my trip.with pictures Gracie was very friendly and very thorough. My dog seems to enjoy the company of Grace's own pet's. I would have no hesitation using Grace's services or recommending her services to someone else.”


“Destiny was such a life saver, she was willing to watch our dog (Jade) on short notice. She was very sweet and good with Jade. Also, very professional and sent us pictures & updates regularly. So glad I found her and will be using her again :)”


“I can not say enough good things about Lori, I was in a jam and Lori helped me out last minute watching my 2 puppies on a Holiday weekend. She could have over charged me like one of the dog sitters on here tried to do but she did not. She sent me pictures several times a day and even video's which was awesome. I will definitely be reaching out to her again on my next trip. Thank you so much Lori you were wonderful with my puppies.”
