Alex was fantastic! Very communicative and prompt. I haven't left my dog with anyone in over 4 years, but Alex made me feel 100% comfortable, and sent me updates and photos. I would definitely use Alex again!

Wow, what a wonderful experience we had having our Labrador Angus stay with Derek and his family. They have the sweetest female lab, Ellie who was a perfect companion for our boy. They have a wonderful fenced yard for the dogs to play in and plenty of humans to keep our dog company. We can’t wait to bring him back again!!

She took excellent care of my dog Toko ​​for 10 long days and ensured Toko had a wonderful time, too. The daily photos and reports gave us peace of mind and comfort even though we couldn't see Toko.

Lori was incredible with our 7 month old pup, Penny! We have never sent Penny away with a sitter so we were nervous how it would go the first time around. She’s super high energy and still learning how to socialize, but Lori handled her perfectly. She gave Penny lots of attention, made sure she got plenty of playtime, and separated her from other dogs when she got a little too excited. It was clear Penny felt comfortable, loved, and safe the whole weekend. Lori kept us updated just enough which I really appreciated since I was busy at my sister’s wedding. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely book with her again!

This was Remy’s first time staying at Marilyn’s and she had a wonderful experience. She immediately warmed up to Marilyn, which is not typical for her shy nature. Marilyn took Remy on many walks and played fetch in the backyard. She provided pictures & updates throughout the day. Lastly, Marilyn was super accommodating and flexible with pick up time, which was greatly appreciated.

This was our first time leaving our dog with Robynn and we couldn’t say enough positive things about her and her whole operation. She offered a meet and greet ahead of time so we could see her yard and home set up, and to make sure our dog would be happy. It is clear Robynn cares deeply about taking good care of her “pack” while at the same time diligently sending us photo and video updates throughout the visit. My dog got a little sick to her stomach one morning (nothing major, sometimes it happens, just a little bile) and Robynn was sure to inform us right away, document things in case we wanted her to see a vet, and also informed us that our dog was eating right away and playing happily. Upon pick up, our dog was clearly happy and well cared for. She has been snoozing deeply ever since coming home. We will not hesitate to use Robynn again in the future!

Nancy was very sweet to my dogs and she treated them as if they were her family. They were free to roam about her home and cuddle with her on the couch, which put me at ease through out my whole trip.

Carrie and her family were absolutely amazing! They were able to help us out with our 3.5 month old puppy last minute. Throughout his stay she sent pictures and updates so we could be at ease knowing our little fur baby was having the time of his life. We couldn’t be more grateful for the care and love Carrie provided and highly recommend for future pet care needs!
