1. Ashley M.
“Wonderful care of my dog. She seemed very happy when I picked her up. It was only an overnight, but I was very pleased with how everyone in the house took to her.”
2. Casandra B.
“Cassandra B. exceeded all my expectations. This was the first time I'd boarded Maddox anywhere and I was worried. Cassandra respected my concerns and answered my many questions. She also made herself available right away for a meet and greet. At that meeting, I saw her deep affection for dogs and her broad understanding of their care. Maddox just returned from a wonderful week at Cassandra's house. Along with receiving great care, he was treated with genuine love. Cassandra devoted a great deal of time to playing with him and cuddling with him. Each day, I received updates. She also sent photos and videos; all of them made it clear how much Maddox was enjoying his stay. I especially appreciated that Cassandra was upfront about the fact that he wasn't eating on his regular schedule one particular day and we worked through a solution together. I was especially touched by (and grateful for!) the way she comforted Maddox when he became agitated during a thunderstorm. Cassandra is a lovely young woman. She is thoughtful, warm, and takes her responsibilities as a dog sitter very seriously. I recommend her highly and so hope she is available if we ever need to board Maddox again.”
3. Joseph B.
“Joseph was wonderful with my dog. He made it a point to build trust with her before introducing her to the other puppers in his home. He sent frequent pictures and updates during her stay. I was able to enjoy my time out of town knowing sunny was being well cared for the entire time. Communication was always easy and timely. She had all of her items with her when I picked her up and she was happy and healthy. I would 100% recommend Joseph and would return as a repeat customer!”
4. Susan & John V.
“Had a wonderful experience! Susan and John watched our 1 year old puppy and it seemed like he had a good experience. We loved the update pictures we got. They were very detailed in making sure they had the information to best take care of him which helped me be more comfortable to leave him there as well. Would definitely request them again.”
5. Mike & Laura O.
“Mike and Laura were the absolute perfect fit for our little rescue chihuahua, Topo, who needs some specific care and management. We felt extremely comfortable and confident leaving him with them while we were on holiday and our dog came back even more relaxed and happy then when we dropped him off. Very communicative and they clearly showed our dog all the love and care and walks we could have asked for. Thank you! Topo is looking forward to coming back.”
6. Hope R.
“Hope is a wonderful person and sitter! She was very kind to our little four-legged friend, Bean. She was also very quick to respond to any question we had during the sitting. It was a great experience and I'm sure Bean feels the same way. You can really tell she cares about each and every animal in her care. We couldn't be more pleased with Hope. Thank you Hope!!!”
7. Tara R.
“Tara R. was very easy to deal with to setup the booking and provided great communication including photos to throughout our dogs stay. We will definitely plan to use Tara on our next trip to Vermont.”
8. Jessica P.
“Our pup had a fantastic time with Jessica! She kept us updated with lots of photos and even took her to her favorite hiking spots. Highly recommended!!”
9. Sarah & Ben A.
“We cannot say enough good things about Sarah and Ben! They took amazing care of our girls and we got many updates with pictures and they looked right at home. Their dog Bean is so cute and our girls loved playing with him too! We were so happy knowing our girls were in great hands!!”
10. Jaimi L.
“Jaimi was very welcoming and flexible with our schedule. Simba enjoyed his visit. We will rebook next year on our return to ski at Okemo.”
11. Mayra G.
“Mayra did a wonderful job taking care of Ollie. He loved playing with her pup & cat. She was super flexible with arrangements and great communication sending lots of updates/photos. Ollie will definitely be back soon to hang with his new friends; Mayra, Frankie & Lux! Thank you taking such sweet care of Oliver”
12. Kaitlin O.
“Kaitlin I see the best dog sitter we could have asked for. She took care of our dog Zoey as if she was her own. Lots of walks and playing in the park. I don't think I've seen her have that much fun with someone other than us before. She also sent lots of pictures and kept us updated on how she was doing everyday. We would give her 10 stars if we could! Definitely going to call her up the next time we need a sitter. Your dog will be in good hands with Kaitlin and her son.”
13. Samantha S.
“Sam is GREAT!! My dogs are tricky and she handled it really well! I also like that she made an effort to send me pics daily (which means a lot to me) if not multiple times a day. She'd always answer my questions quickly, and I felt really good that my dogs were in her hands. I also like that her husband made the effort to meet me when I dropped off the dogs. It made me know that everyone in the house was welcoming and kind. Her property is GREAT for walks too btw. I highly recommend her.”
14. halle S.
“Halle and family took good care of my dog Rosie, who can be a challenge when she's in an environment with strangers. Rosie sometimes has socializing issue, but Halle understood my special care requests and Rosie turned out to be a fine guest for a week in their house. As Rosie was evidently at ease, so was I while I was away. Should a boarding need arise in the future, I will definitely consider Halle.”
15. Greta W.
“Best pet sitter! So communicative and went above and beyond with my little kitty’s care! Will definitely be asking Greta for help every time I need a pet sitter.”
16. Jarica G.
“Jarica is a gem. It can be challenging to find the right person I would trust with my fur babies, but she made it an easy decision. Her kind demeanor made it easy for both my cat and dog to feel at comfortable with her. 10 out of 10 highly recommend her to help you with your pets needs!”
17. Deanna C.
“Deanna is SO wonderful! She is always so caring and responsible with our sweet pup. She has cared for him on his best and on his worst days and always loves him the same no matter what. I will always and forever want Deanna to watch our cute boy, I never worry when she's there.”
18. Andy & Allison H.
“Andy & Allison are clearly dog lovers & have a gift for working with some tough dog clients! They are so kind and Piper felt totally at home, which is a big deal for this rescue pup! They communicated throughout the trip and sent me tons of pictures. It was such a relief to know she was in such caring hands while I was out of town. I can’t wait to use them again!”
19. Meredith K.
“Meredith is wonderful. She is very thoughtful about how she pairs her visiting pups for playtime. She is also very organized and an excellent communicator.”
20. Diana W.
“Diana was an excellent host for my dog, Callie (Lab/Whippet mix). Diana has a history of caring for many dogs of all sizes, and I definitely trust her to watch my dog. I will use Diana again in the future, no doubt! She is very open to each dog and their personality - whether they enjoy playing with toys, companionship, using/sleeping in a crate or out of one, etc. Her knowledge of dogs and how to love them and care for them is truly one of a kind. You can tell from the get go that she is a true dog lover at heart and has been her entire life. She will make your dog feel at home as much as possible during their stay, spoiling them with new toys or treats to help ease any anxiety. Callie had a great time and I can't wait to have Diana watch her again!”
