“Absolute best choice we could have made for my baby boy Banana. It was his first time away from home and he lived her family. She kept in contact so well. A million thank yous to her and her some Jame. I will bring him back to visit I promis.”
“Siqing spoiled Kodi with naps on the couch and cuddles. She shared pictures of him with her pups and he seemed to be part of the family. It was an amazing weekend for him. Siqing is great to work with and very accommodating. I hope we have the opportunity to leave Kodi with her again soon”
“Bruce was wonderful! He took great care of our dog, Sassy, while my husband and I were away for a long weekend. He sent updates and pictures throughout the day. I was worried because it was the first time Sassy would be staying with a stranger since we rescued her, but Bruce made her feel comfortable throughout her stay. He also did a meet and greet beforehand so she could meet him before staying there. Would highly recommend Bruce and will plan to use him in the future if/when we travel again.”
“Kara was amazing!! Going through a lot and I needed someone to take care of my two cats. She took them last minute and was so caring from the get go! One of my cats is very shy and he felt at home right away! I ended up extending the time because of my current situation. Will use her again!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️”
“Oscar stayed with Kristin for two weeks and he was well taken care of. This is the second time he’s been with Kristin so he was already familiar with everything. She also got Oscar a birthday toy and celebrated his birthday while I was away which I thought was very sweet. Very appreciative to have a family who Oscar feels comfortable with. Kristin was communicative throughout the long trip. Thanks again!”
“Highly recommended! Howard and Kathleen were really nice, and flexible with drop off and pick up times. They sent pictures and updates - our dog was obviously comfortable and content :)”
“John and Wendy were outstanding sitters for our pup, Charlie. They stayed in touch regularly with videos, photos, and updates. Our dog had so much fun running outside on their beautiful property and snuggling up with them on the couch and bed. Definitely recommend!”
“Morgan was so sweet and helpful! Very easy to work with. She went the extra mile, keeping things on hand, like a ball for visiting dogs. She carried our little dog up and down the stairs”
“Best pet sitter ever!!!! Liz went above and beyond and took great care of my Boston Terrier!! 10/10 stars! Will be using her again for all my future pet sitting!!! Liz took the time at least once a day on my 18 day booking to send updates on potty, treats, feeding, playtime/walks as well as send photos of my dog! She treated Mickey like family. Couldn’t have had a better experience!!”
“Ashley is an amazing dog sitter. From the moment I met her and saw her interact with my dog, I knew he would be in good hands. We boarded him with her for 6 days—the longest we’ve ever been apart—so we were a bit nervous. But Ashley’s care and communication let me truly enjoy my vacation, knowing our dog was happy and safe. I loved receiving daily videos and photos, and she even included a bit of training, which I really appreciated! When we returned, our dog was healthy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I can’t recommend Ashley enough—she’s reliable, caring, and truly a dog lover at heart!”
“I just want to start off by saying, never judge anyone’s profile just because they haven’t gotten the opportunity to sit more dogs than others. Gaileen and her family were absolutely amazing. From the first meeting they were nice, understanding , and very welcoming. My Klee Kai Xura felt so happy and safe. Every single step of the way Gaileen sent me photos, daily updates on xura status and behavior and performed her duties as a sitter. I just want to thank them so much for their hospitality and I will definitely book them again soon”
“Noemi & David were absolutely wonderful with my dog - she felt right at home immediately, and they were just so kind. The whole family welcomed her with open arms and Noemi sent lovely pictures of Della enjoying her weekend. Thanks again for taking such great care of my girl!”
