“Richard is the best! We no longer feel guilty taking trips without our dog Boo knowing that he has the best time at Richard’s. Richard always sends daily pictures and is very communicative, so we never have to worry about our baby.”



“Victoria did an amazing job with our Frosty! She made he and I feel safe and secure that he would be taken well care of. She sent us video updates at least twice a day! Frosty was extremely happy there, and I look forward to her watching Frosty again. I highly recommend Victoria for all your pet sitting needs! Thank you, Victoria!”


“Our older cat is afraid of her shadow and keeps her distance from people she doesn’t know. Audrey was patient and gentle with her. She sent me pictures and notes every day. I like that she works from home so your pet is not left alone very often. And her adorable and very friendly kitten is happy to be a playmate or can be kept separate if needed. Give Audrey a try. You won’t be disappointed.”


“Michael & Maria were great hosts! Charlie stayed with them for 4 nights and this was his first time away from us. They made the transition very seamless for us! Days before dropping him off, they reached out prior to make sure we accommodated Charlie in any way we can. After dropping Charlie off, they gave us frequent pics multiple times during the day without even asking for them! They played with Charlie, took him for walks, and were extremely nice and communicative! I will definitely be booking again :)”

We will certainly be using them again!”

We go to KT at least once a year and hope to book him again!”
