“Our girl Scout had the best time at summer camp (aka Yvette’s) lol. We went away on vacation and Scout stayed at Yvette’s for the week - We wouldn’t have wanted her to be anywhere else. Yvette & her husband welcome her into their home like she’s their own! We got tons of updates and pics of Scout on walks, playing in the lovely backyard, snuggled up on the bed, and getting treated with her fav treats -carrots :-) Yvette is the best and you will NOT regret hiring her to take care of your babies. ❤️🐾 thank you Yvette!!!”


“She is the best dog sitter I have ever met. She sent photos and videos every day so I could tell my dog had a really great time with her and her dog. She accommodated drop-off & pick-up on our schedule as well.”


“Whitney and Michael were so welcoming to our labradoodle, Georgy! Georgy loved hanging out with their two dogs. She seemed to really be treated like part of the family.”


“We’ve kept Keenu with Indrani a couple of times now. And it has been very satisfying experience for both us as dog parents and Keenu. She always made sure that we periodically get pics and updates through the day and Keenu had a blast as well. Will definitely look for her services the next time we are out of town.”


“Jaimie provided wonderful care to our two dogs, Penny and Hugo. She helped them to feel safe and comfortable (and got them through all the scary noises of a loud thunderstorm!) We all appreciated the regular photos and updates that Jaimie sent to us.”



“This is the first time using Pam and I was happy with the experience. This was the first time leaving my 4 month old pup since I got her and I felt at ease. Pam was great with communication and sent me updates including pictures and videos. Bella looked happy in all the videos with her tail constantly wagging. I’ll definitely be using Pam again.”


“Jonathan and Rebecca were fantastic sitters! They are extremely communicative and accommodating. Our dog, Mirchi, loved hanging out with their dogs and that gave me peace of mind that she always having fun. We’ll go to Jonathan and Rebecca next time we need a sitter :)”


“I cannot say enough good things about Radwa O. and her wonderful family! She boarded my pup Stormi for 6 days, and from the moment I dropped her off, I had zero worries. Radwa went above and beyond to make sure Stormi felt loved, included, and completely at home. The updates she sent were thoughtful and showed just how much Stormi was being cared for like one of their own. A huge thank you to her sweet pups Diesel and Lyla for putting up with my little fireball. Stormi can be a lot, but they welcomed her with such patience and playfulness. And to her boys, thank you for letting Stormi crash your sleepover! It meant the world to know she was surrounded by such kindness and fun. Radwa and her family are truly lovely people and amazing sitters. Stormi came home happy, healthy, and clearly spoiled with love. I would absolutely trust them again in a heartbeat! — Chanell G.”

She sent us updates throughout his stay and also showed him love and affection as well as playing with him and treating him as her own. We highly recommend Mary Jo and will be using her again!”


“Bishoy and his wife were amazing in caring for our golden retriever. She had a lot of play time outside & cuddles, and we received regular updates/pictures. Very kind people and I would definitely recommend them!”


“If we could give William 10 stars we would. Our Frenchie Rosie is a handful. She's a VELCRO dog that loves attention and needs to be by your side 24/7. She even got to sleep on "Uncle Bills" bed. He has a lot a patience. His dog Whiskey is extremely friendly, as well as the other dog in his care. There's a lot of room inside and out. Rosie came home happy, healthy and exhausted from her first 3 day vacation. We looking forward to seeing him again.”
