“We are from out of the area but going to a concert a The Bowl. Last minute, we decided to find a babysitter for our very busy Portuguese Water Dog. Ryan accommodated both us and our dog in every way possible. His communication was outstanding and his love for dogs and their happiness was a dream for us. I would not hesitate to have Leo over there again. He lives in a very convenient location, right in Santa Barbara and his home was safe and secure. Thank you Ryan. We all hope to see you again soon. Thank you!”
“Jenni provides excellent communication and a really calm, loving environment for dog daycare. She takes just one dog at a time. She has a very sweet, mellow dog of her own. In addition to walks, there is a sunny and fenced in courtyard. The location is easy to get to.”
“When we arrived to drop of Bubba, Deandra invited us inside, I liked that. She kept us updated about how he was doing during the day. I would definitely contact Deandra again.”
“I'm so happy that I found Honey! She and her pup Rosie were a great match for Bucky. Honey sent photos and updates often, and was very quick to respond. She was intuative with Bucky's needs and I knew he was in great hands. She has a comfortable home and bed that Bucky didn't want to get out of. This is my first experience on this app and I have no hesitation leaving Bucky with her in the future. Thanks again honey! A++”

“I truly appreciate being able to schedule Haley to feed our cat when we're out-of-town! Haley is very responsive to texts I send her, getting back to me in a timely manner regarding her availability. I've also asked her to bring in our mail, newspaper, and trash cans and she always follows through. I feel she's very organized and I trust her in our home, and taking care of our cat. A few weeks ago, our plans had changed and I had to let Haley know I didn't need her services. I felt bad that I didn't need her. But her response was very professional and it truly reflected the mature and responsible person that she is. I'd HIGHLY recommend Haley to anybody needing someone to care for their cat or dog!”
