“She took great care of my pups while we were away. I got photos throughout their stay and she was quick to communicate back. I was able to enjoy my trip without worrying about if they were being well taken care of :)”
2. Matt & Nicole L.
“We have a 2 yo Havanese that is fearful and skittish of new people and places. We had a get acquainted session with Matt and Nicole and after that short meet we already felt very comfortable leaving Tebow in their care. Tebow then did the doggy daycare before he then spent the day and night that weekend. Matt and Nicole are so good about responding to texts. We were updated often about Tebow and were sent many cute pictures. We could tell Tebow was having a great time. We were amazed how quickly Tebow warmed up to them as it usually takes him awhile. They are now besties. We are so happy to have found Matt and Nicole as it makes it a lot easier knowing your fur baby is well taken care of in his second home when we are gone.”
3. Kyli U.
“I cannot recommend Kyli highly enough! She recently cared for my two dogs and went above and beyond in every aspect of her service. She was incredibly accommodating to my last-minute schedule changes, which I truly appreciated. Kyli kept me updated throughout their stay with regular messages and photos, giving me complete peace of mind. Her communication was outstanding—she responded to every text message almost immediately, making it easy to stay connected and reassured. It was clear my dogs were well cared for and happy under her supervision. Kyli’s professionalism, attentiveness, and genuine love for animals make her an exceptional pet sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again!”

5. angie a.
“I would give 10 stars if it were possible. I was so thankful to be able to find Angie last minute to care for our dog Koa. It was Koa’s first time ever with a sitter, and we were nervous because it was 9 days, but Angie was welcoming during the meet and greet, and explained about how she would care for him. She also provided additional information about the other dogs she cared for during the time we would leave Koa with her. She sent pics almost every day to provide updates on how he was doing. We are so grateful for the amazing care that Koa received from Angie. He was a happy pup, which made us happy, too!”
6. Joanne R.
“My dog Sam had such a great stay with Joanne. He is normally very nervous about meeting new people, but he took to Joanne right away, and he loved playing with her dog Juno. Joanne has a nice big back yard that is fenced, so Sammy got lots of outdoor time (which he loves). She kept me up to date each day on how he was doing by sending photos. I definitely plan to use Joanne again in the future, and I recommend her highly as a sitter.”

13. Sydney S.
“Sydney was a great sitter. She communicated well and responded quickly to our request. She welcomed a "get to know you visit" so that our dog could meet Henry her cat. She updated us with photos and was flexible with our drop off and pick up times. We will certainly use her again.”
14. Annette A.
“We left our sweet puppy Lucy with Annette for a week as we went on a cruise. She sent us photos daily with updates. She and her husband were so very caring and loving and went the extra mile making sure Lucy had a great stay. We would highly recommend Annette. It was great knowing she was well taken care of while we were away.”

I appreciated the pictures and daily updates while I was away and had a good feeling knowing he was well taken care of and in good hands. I appreciated Deanna's patience with me and my schedule and I know Ricky enjoyed her large yard and the companionship of her dog Nekko.”
18. Cyd Marie D.
“Cyd Marie was an amazing Petsitter for little Henry. She treated Henry as her own and kept me posted at least 3 times per day - with photos. It was like Henry was on a doggy vacation. I will absolutely use Cyd Marie again and have already asked her if she’d like to care for Henry again.. she said yes!”

20. Mary G.
“Mary was the best! After our meet & greet I knew it was the perfect home for Honey to stay for the weekend. She was so welcoming, friendly, informative & honest. She sent updates with text, pictures, and videos of Honey. Mary’s home felt safe & easy for Honey to adjust to. I can’t thank her enough for taking care of our puppy so well. Honey was so loved & well taken care of. Mary truly made us feel like we were simply leaving Honey with another family member!”
