1. Austin C.
“Austin was so great with our dog. At first I was hesitant about leaving her with anyone as it was her first time out with someone we didn't know. Austin helped reassure us she would be just fine. He kept updating me how she was adjusting and sending pictures. She looked so happy her night there and was even hesitant to leave when I came to pick her up the following morning. I can tell she had a blast and we will be definitely using Austin in the future. I recommend for anyone looking to use a reliable sitter for your pup.”
2. Rebekah C.
“We boarded our dog with Rebekah for two nights. Everything went great. She was super easy to work with and our dog seemed very happy. I'd definitely recommend Rebekah”
3. Darcia B.
“My precious pup was in such good hands with Darcy! She was conscientious about asking all the details about my dog’s care and regular schedules. While I was away, she was very communicative and quick to send responses or initial status updates with pictures. As my dog has anxiety with thunderstorms, Darcy stayed up with her most of the night ensuring she was calm and safe while she was upset. I know that’s not an easy thing to do so I really appreciate that so much! I wouldn’t hesitate to leave my pup with her again!”
4. Sarah B.
“Sammy was well taken care of. He got along with the friendly household dogs and guests. Sarah and family kept us updated with photos and info. I would definitely recommend this sitter!”
5. Taylor C.
“Taylor was great. She was very flexible with us, responded quickly, and was so helpful! She was great at drop off and made us feel very comfortable, and continued that throughout the stay with lots of pictures and messages!”
6. Mike L.
“Mike and Kelly were great with Finn, we loved receiving daily photos, he always looked so happy! I definitely recommend them, and feel very comfortable leaving Finn in their care.”
7. Kevin t.
“My pups had a great weekend with Kevin socializing and playing outside. He responded promptly to my initial request and any update requests though he was already sending updates regularly. Clover and Bear will be back!”
8. savanna s.
“This was my first time using a dog sitter and I'm so very happy with finding Savanna. I've boarded twice in the past and it's not a good fit for my dog who isn't social with large groups of dogs and prefers sleeping and resting inside or sunbathing outside in the warmth. Savanna provided daily updates, photos and videos, so I could relax knowing my dog wasn't stressed out or hiding in a corner. She found out first hand my dog is a bed hog and is obsessed with peanut butter toast AND still loved Dublin and took care of her. All of Dublins needs- medicine and feeding and care, was taken care of. We really lucked out finding Savanna, who had a fenced yard and no children and was an easy drive. I will use her in the future if I ever need to go away!”
9. Clara M.
“We had a great boarding experience with Clara. She was professional, personable and communicative. We loved receiving updates and photos of Rocky throughout the day 😊🐾”
10. Jennifer S.
“Jennifer and Kimchi took the best care of Kobe and truly treated him like her own. Jennifer sent multiple pictures and kept us up to date. I highly recommend Jennifer and Kimchi. I look forward to booking again.”
11. Karen W.
“Highly recommend! Karen and her family took amazing care of our little fur baby!!! We will definitely be using her again for any future needs!”
12. Cassandra L.
“I have a pair of mini schnauzers who are 1 and 2. I’ve never left them for an extended period of time with anyone who wasn’t family, so I was definitely nervous! When I reached out to Cassandra, she set up a meet and greet for my dogs and me to get familiar with her yard as well as her dogs ahead of the weekend I’d be away, which was great. While I was away I received updates and photos about how they were doing and all the fun they were having! I could tell that she really cares about the dogs in her care and enjoys them. It totally eased my mind. I will absolutely utilize Cassandra’s services again the next time I travel! Thank you!”
13. Kailyn L.
“Kailyn went out her way to buy Mylo some pee pads and she also made sure he ate and drank lots of water throughout the day. Kailyn and her family took such good care of Mylo, always kept an eye out for him. She has such a beautiful house, big backyard with lots of space for the pups to run around, including a couple doggie pools for the summer time. Mylo left Kailyn's house very happy, excited, and in good spirits, I can tell Mylo enjoyed his stay! She answered all my text messages and any questions I had right away. Seems like she has lots of experience with pups, she also works at a doggie daycare which is awesome. Mylo will most definitely stay again in the near future.”
14. Madison S.
“Madison was great! I felt very comfortable with her watching my dog. She sent pictures and kept me updated. I will deff. book with her again.”
15. Leanne & Michael M.
“I really appreciate that Leanne and her family are always so attentive to my dogs’ needs, especially since my dog has been having some health issues recently. My dogs are always well taken care of!”
16. Sergio S.
“My girl is always happy to have a stay with Sergio! Thank you from Splash and me!”
17. Kimberly J.
“OMG...Kimberly is wonderful! Our dog, Stella was very spoiled and loved while we were gone. Kimberly took great care of her...many long walks, ball throwing and cuddles...It was great for us to feel that Stella was so happy while we were away. Kimberly sent many photos/videos to keep us updated and that was so nice to see Stella enjoying herself.”
18. Megan D.
“Blue had a great time and this sitter let us come by several days and take Blue out for a walk because we were in town. We forgot our dog bowls, and when we dropped by to get them a couple weeks later our dog went crazy with excitement because he thought he was getting dropped off again for a visit. He was very disappointed that we were not leaving him for a visit.”
19. Seonmin Y.
“Cider had such a blast at Sunny’s. She ran right inside to see Sam, their dog. Sunny sent plenty of updates and I fear in the future, Cider won’t want to leave!”
20. Mary G.
“Our pups had a great stay with Mary and her family. Knowing that our dogs would be well cared for while we attended our son's wedding out of town gave us one less detail to worry about. Mary accommodated our schedule and was very pleasant to work with. A+ service!”
