“Ashley was great! Chang looked like he was having a great time in his pictures that she sent to me. I’m very appreciative of her being comfortable with Chang being old and having several issues. I will definitely be using her again!”
“Carrie took great care of our pit bull Sox in her home while we were out of town for a couple days! She sent daily updates with pictures and videos to assure us he was doing well. Her whole family gave him much love and treated him like their own. Will definitely be using her again!”
“Jharasen was awesome. She took care of our 15 week old puppy for a weekend and provided pictures and updates each day. Also had a cute little backyard area for the dogs to play.”
“Amy is a very nice and approachable person and really knows her stuff when it comes to dogs I must say, having lots of them at home herself. I was very pleased with the care she puts towards axle. I would really recommend her if you’re going on vacation to leave your pups in her care, you won’t regret it promise. Every time I texted her to check on my pup she answer almost immediately and told me everything was fine. 5 stars for her and thanks Amy for your work.”
“Susan and her daughters were amazing with our two dogs! I received 15-20 photos a day plus additional videos. The girls looked happy and very well taken care of. They even came home smelling free and clean! Will for sure use in the future and recommend to anyone!”
“Kendra was fantastic with my 2 fur babies Atlas and Charlie. She took excellent care of them and I enjoyed my vacation while they were on “pet vacation” with her. Highly recommend and will def reach out for Kendra’s service again. 5stars!!! Thank you so much!”
“Nicole was great with my goldendoodle Kingston. She kept me updated from the time I left, and each day after. She sent me photos of him playing with her two dogs, and a German Shepard that was there one day on a play date. Kingston was well cared for, and judging from the photos he had a ball while there. He was able to run and play in Nicole's hugh backyard,and Kingston also had a dedicated room in her house to nap/sleep. Nicole is a fantasic sitter and I could tell that she loves dogs. I would definitely reommend her services if you need a dog sitter.”
“Brittany was as sweet as could be--and side note: ADORABLE twin toddlers! ;-) Apparently Buster and the tots kept each other busy to the point of everyone napping by the end of the visit. I was visiting from out of town for a family event, and if/when I go again, I'll definitely leave Buster with Brittany. Thank you so much, Brittany!”
“I can't recommend Ms. Deborah enough! She took such wonderful care of my two fur babies during their stay. From the moment they arrived, they felt right at home and quickly adjusted to their new environment. They absolutely loved spending time on her farm, and I could tell they were in great hands. It's clear that Ms. Deborah has a genuine love for animals, and she went above and beyond to ensure my pets were happy, comfortable, and well-cared for. I'll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Ron is the best! My pups love him. We love him too. I hate when he is not available but that is a testament to how good he is. Y'all stop hogging him lol. Thank you Ron for all you do.”
“We loved having Laura look after our Bodhi! She was very warm and receptive. Laura immediately connected with our Labrador Retriever and he never looked back as we were leaving him. She provided photos and updates about their time together and was flexible with pickup and drop off times. We won’t hesitate to call on Laura the next time we need pet sitting services.”
“Bethany and her family were such a blessing to us! We were traveling for 10 days and each day we received updates and photos that let us know our babygirl was in excellent hands. It was so nice to have no worries while we were away. We will reqch out again for future reservations!”
“Kimberly too excellent care of our Scooter while we were away. I was apprehensive about leaving him as this was the first time in 12 years that we have boarded him. Kimberly sent pics often and spoiled him so much! Highly recommend her.”
“I had a lot of anxiety leaving my pup for the very first time and Russell did an amazing job with her! I would highly recommend him for your pet’s care! She was very well taken care of and he played with her, took her on walks and made her feel right at home. She is a high energy dog and he did fantastic with her!”
“William is a very friendly guy, animal lover. He took care of my dog for a few days and make my dog feel like he was home. My dog enjoyed his stay and was taken care during his stay. William was very communicative. I definitely recommend him, and I know I will book with him again on my next trip. ☺️🐶”
“We got tons of pictures of our Betsy every day, which is great when you miss your dog as we did. Betsy had a blast with Melissa’s dogs, specifically with Tucker and the daily walks were incredible! We will definitely use Melissa’s services again!”
“Jessica was so great with our dog for five nights. Kept us updated with pictures and videos daily. Our dog had a blast playing with her two pups! She has a large fenced in back yard that worked well for our energetic dog. Would highly recommend booking with Jessica!”
