“I needed a sitter for my dog as I was going away for the week. I’m glad they popped up on my search! Bobbi and Brian are amazing. They treated Whiskey like he was their own, kept in communication with me and reassured me he was in good hands. They sent pictures every day and throughout the day and asked questions which I appreciated. I will definitely use them again whenever I head out of town. Thank you both so much!!!”

“Megan is an outstanding dog boarder. She sent us photos of Dream daily and an update. Megan gave Dream exceptional care and I could not be more appreciative for Megan . Highly recommend!!!”

“Anika was great! She sent pictures and videos. She was very responsive when I reached out. I really liked that she let us meet her before booking! I am a new puppy mom and was super sad and scared to leave Ace! She made me feel much more comfortable after meeting her! Ace is really spoiled and demands attention. And she did really great with him! I will be using her again! Thank you for taking care of our baby!”

“Jen was great with our super skiddish dog who doesn’t have much experience with other animals or people but Jen ensured she would do great! I got pics everyday and she’s so quick to respond! Definitely rebooking with her in the future!”

“She’s the best ! I had a last minute family situation and she was able to accommodate getting my dog later in the evening and kept her longer than expected! Thank you !”

“Boarding with Ashley was an amazing experience. She was able to sit for us last minute, which was great. Ashley communicated with me throughout the day, with lots of pictures and updated. My dog seemed very comfortable with her. We will definitely be booking again.”

“Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of my dog while I was away. It gave me real peace of mind knowing they were in such loving and capable hands. Your patience, kindness, and attention truly mean a lot, and I could tell my dog felt comfortable and happy with you. I really appreciate the time, effort, and love you put into caring for them. Thank you again for everything!”


“We love Melissa! Been repeat boarders with her, and my dog gets excited when we turn down her street. She has been great with my works trips and sometimes last minute scheduling changes.”

“Nikki is absolutely amazing. My dog is very nervous around people, she did not rush him. Initially, I reached out to have her handle some dinners a couple of times a year but then I had an unexpected death in the family that required me to go out of town for seven days. She was wonderful working around my schedule. We received multiple updates showing how happy he is hanging with her family and dogs. This meant the world to us knowing he was is such good hands.”

“LaTasha provided such great care to Deuce. The videos and pictures sent each day helped me in knowing that he was having fun and in a safe place. I will absolutely use her services again.”

“We highly recommend Melanie and Randy. They welcomed Dean Martin and treated him like their own. Our flight home was cancelled and our arrival was almost 24 hours later than planned but Melanie and Randy were flexible and accommodated our request to extend Dean Martin's stay. It made a stressful travel situation less stressful knowing that Dean Martin was well loved and cared for. Thank you!”

“Christianna is the BEST! At our meet and greet I knew My puppy was going to be in excellent hands! My puppy was with her for a total of 4 days. I recieved DAILY updates which included pictures & videos. I knew she genuinely cares for animals. I will be bringing daisy back.”

“Morgan was absolutely wonderful with Luna and Bella. He was so sweet and patient with them, made sure they were fed on time, and always gave them plenty of time outside to play in the yard. He really paid attention to the little details and even gave us helpful recommendations to improve how we care for the dogs, which we truly appreciated. He was always on time, very responsible, and super patient when loading them up. His communication was on point; he kept us updated every day without us even having to ask. We’re so thankful we found him and are already planning to book him again for future pet sitting. Highly recommend!”


“Christine is wonderful. Laika was very happy staying with Christine. Christine took care of my dog Laika above and beyond expectation. I highly recommend Christine. Thank you .”

“Kerry and her family took amazing care of my dog Briggs while I was out of town. I got loads of adorable pictures, and he was returned groomed and fluffy with a new bandana. I highly recommend them and will be reaching out again when I travel.”
