“Katie was FABULOUS! Would highly recommend to anyone I know that’s in search of a dog sitter. All my pup wants is snuggles and human affection and it was such a relief knowing he received exactly that while we were away.”
“Taylor house sat for us for a full 7 days and was so wonderful! Our two dogs just adore her and had the best time- she is kind, attentive, and you can tell she really loves the animals and prioritizes their quality of care. She even sent daily updates and photos! She has our highest recommendation- and we’ve already re-booked her for an upcoming trip! ☺️”

She read some info about Brody’s breed. That’s impressive! Sent me updates on how the dogs were doing!Very nice! Her care of our three dogs was great!Very happy! Thank you Erin! Terrific experience!”
“We hired Megan for a nine night in-home dogsitting job. She truly went above and beyond and we came home to find our pups safe and well cared for. She took it upon herself to create handmade gifts for both dogs and my two children just because that’s the kind of person she is. Would highly recommend and we would be thrilled to re-book in the future!”
“An excelent review! She was amazing in every way. She took very good care of the dogs with updates constantly. I felt really good about having her in my house. She left it cleaner than I left it for her. My elderly dog left a mess on the floor and she cleaned up which I thought was above what she needed to do. She also made sure my dog had her meds and followed all of my requests and let me know all details. Thank you Mary, next time I need a sitter, callin ya up!”

From the start, she was flexible with timing and made everything easy. She sent daily updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind. Our dogs were clearly well cared for and happy. We came home to a clean house and relaxed pets! We’re extremely thankful for her care and professionalism. We’ll definitely book her again. Highly recommend!”

He always has a bundle of patience and love for my sweet girl.”
