“I am so very pleased at how well Yvette took care of my dog, Jack! She provided him with a loving and happy atmosphere and cared for Jack as if he were her own. She provided me with updates (photos and videos) which were very much appreciated. I can’t stress enough how top-notch Yvette’s services were. I would highly recommend her.”
“Maureen takes exceptional take of our pup. We don’t worry about a thing when he’s with her and her fur babies. He is always so happy there and loves visiting his furry friends.”
“Jamie , had been amazing with our dog-Honey. She sends regular updates , is very communicative and offers her care and warmth. We have been using her services since last year, and Honey enjoys his stay and is comfortable here. We highly recommend Jamie for dog sitting services.”
“Very happy with how my Brownie was taking care of and they keep me up to date when ever I asked how he was doing will be using them again when ever we have to go out of town and are unable to take Brownie with us. Very kind family. Thank you very much.”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Natalia and her husband! They were truly exceptional sitters for our dog, Sai. From the moment we dropped him off, we felt completely at ease knowing he was in such capable and caring hands. Natalia sent us daily updates, complete with photos, showing us all the fun activities Sai was enjoying—from walks to outings at the dog park. It was clear Sai was having the time of his life! When Sai experienced a minor GI upset, they handled it with such care and professionalism, following our instructions perfectly. They showed genuine compassion and concern, which meant the world to us. It's rare to find someone who treats your pet like their own, and Natalia and her husband did just that. When we picked Sai up, it was obvious he had bonded with Natalia and saw her as part of his family. He was looking at her like he was going to miss his new friend, which truly warmed our hearts. We couldn’t have asked for better sitters and highly recommend Natalia to anyone looking for a safe, loving, and attentive environment for their pets. Thank you both for going above and beyond for Sai!”
“Margarita was great with Blossom. Blossom is a bit timid but Margarita made her feel so comfortable. Margarita sent plenty of updates, photos and videos, which kept our mind at ease. Will definitely be using Margarita again!”
“I can't say enough good things about Bhavani. From the moment we walked in, I felt completely at ease. Bhavani took the time to learn about my dog's routine and preferences, which gave me real peace of mind. Her house was spacious, and full of toys for the furry babies and her kids were so friendly and played with Astro. I loved getting daily photo and video updates and seeing my baby happy and being well-cared-for. When I picked him up, he was calm and happy. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my dog now. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a safe and loving experience.”
“Our pup had a great stay at Lucas and Kathrine’s! We were constantly updated throughout the stay with pictures and videos. It looked like he had a blast! Our pup will definitely be staying there again!”
“Jessica is amazing! I can’t say it enough. She is awesome with whiskey. He loves going over and staying with her. He plays all day and has a great time there! I never worry when he is with her! She is my go to person when we need for him to stay somewhere. Trust her fully!”

“Jesse is amazing and I feel so grateful to have found him! Our 4 year old labradoodle felt at home from the moment we walked into Jesse’s home and Jesse cared for him as if our Cody was a part of his family, with so much love and attention. Jesse was a great communicator and updated me throughout the day with messages and pictures of Cody and his activities during the day. I had such a peace of mind knowing that Cody was so well cared for while we were away. I will definitely be using Jesse again!!”

“Isbath was great with my dog. Precious is highly skittish and tends to have a hard time adapting to new environments, but she was fantastic with Isbath. She ate, played, walked and had no problem sleeping through the night while in her care. I got numerous updates, pictures, and videos, of my dog being her relaxed and playful self. She always looked so happy and content. Would highly recommend Isbath and will most definitely be using her again. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my little one!”
