“Steven was really good about sending updates & pictures to me during my dog Frankie stay with him. I can tell Frankie was well taken care of.”
9. Leah S.
“I left two puppies with Leah this time, and they had a blast. It was the fourth or fifth time I’ve left Benji there, and it’s become a second home to him. Leah is very knowledgeable and caring, and her family and home are the perfect setting for most dogs. It’s kind of a play-land with kids, cats, a huge yard, and of course the other lady of the house, Butter.”

“I cant recommend a more professional dog sitter than Samantha. She was willing to watch my dog short notice and took amazing care of her. Even with freezing temps she kept my dog engaged with indoor activities. Her home is extremely clean and has a great backyard for dogs to get exercise. Consistently kept me informed of how my dog was doing. She truly is top notch!”

14. Haylie H.
“I would recommend Haylie and her family! They took care of our new addition to our family while we were away a few days. They were very understanding of her anxiety of being away from her family for the first time since we got her. They took good care of her. She was clean and everything I dropped off for her was also well cared for. She sent multiple videos and photos throughout the stay. I would rebook with Haylie in the future.”

I highly recommend Julie to anyone and we’re excited to have her care for George in the future!”

It was clear from our pup’s demeanor that she was well cared for and happy thanks to Tammy!”

Lexi was on medication and not eating like she normally does, Shyann had no problems with our instructions and handled everything like a pro! It’s such a relief when you go out of town knowing that someone is really giving care and love to your furry family member, and that’s what Shyann does! We can relax and enjoy our trip, Shyann sends us fun and adorable pics & videos of Lexi and we really appreciate the extra effort she puts in doing that!”
