“Paul and Arnell were the sweetest with my Bandit. Sent lots of pictures and are very responsive at communicating. Nice meet n greet and easy drop off/pickup. Bandit was definitely spoiled with these two!”

“Wendy truly found a home away from home while staying with Erin and her family. I loved getting snuggle updates every morning and Erin sent lots of pics throughout the day. Definitely will trust Erin again with our Wendy girl! So fortunate to have found such a good fit for our dog.”

“Lulu loved staying with Karilla and James. It was clear she was well cared for. The communication was also great. I would definitely use them to board Lulu again.”

“The best care we could have ever imagined for our pup! Truly, he has never been happier at pick up. We knew all his need were being met and Rosemary is an absolute star.”
“Another great stay with Sandy! The best thing Sandy provides is peace of mind. It's so nice to be able to go out of town and know that our pup is in such loving and capable hands with Sandy. We really appreciate all that she does!”

“Kristen and Kasey are amazing dog sitters. They provided frequent updates and photos and even sent our dog home with a hand painted portrait of him ? we really feel like we hit the jackpot finding them!!”
“Caitlin (Margaret) takes care of my August like he is one of their family. I get lots of pictures while I'm gone, so I know he is as spoiled there as he is at home. When I went to pick him up, August didn't want to leave! When I got him into the car he wasn't over-stressed and anxious, and he also wasn't over-tired. Just perfect!”

“Debbie is truly a gem! She took incredible care of our dog Koda while we were away. From the moment I dropped him off, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such loving and capable hands. Debbie sent tons of adorable photo updates that showed Koda going on long walks, getting plenty of playtime, and soaking up so much love. It was clear she treated him like one of her own. Koda also made a new best friend—her sweet black lab, Sammy—which made his stay even more special. When I picked him up, he was so happy and relaxed, and I could tell he had the absolute best time. I will definitely be booking with Debbie again. Can’t recommend her enough!”

“I can’t recommend Leah and Chris enough! They were so incredibly thoughtful in getting to know our dog, Indy, and her needs before her stay. They were also very easy to communicate with, so friendly and very accommodating. We received the most amazing pictures of her while we were gone and also updates about her days & how she was doing. We know she was so well cared for and can’t wait for her to spend time with them again!”

“Kelley was fantastic! Our dog was treated as a member of her family! She sent regular updates with pictures and videos. I had peace of mind knowing that Stella was so well cared for. She is the best!”

“Otis had another wonderful visit with Amber and her family. The moment we drove up to her home, Otis couldn’t wait to exit the car. He was thrilled to see Amber! We appreciate the exceptional care.”

“Abby had the best time at Lajetta'a house! She cannot wait for her next visit! Thank you for all the pictures during her stay so we could see all the fun she was having!”

“Emily and Eric are so great with my dogs. I'm very comfortable leaving my elderly pug and my very fearful rescue dog with them. They give me regular updates and send pics daily, as well as lots of feedback when I pick my girls up. So glad I found them. Highly recommended.”

“I had an excellent experience with Jared boarding my dog for a week. He was incredibly responsive throughout the entire stay, providing regular updates and making sure my dog felt at home. It was clear that Jared genuinely cares about pets, and I felt at ease knowing my dog was in good hands. Highly recommend Jared for anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

“Jennifer took such great care of our puppy and had amazing communication! She sent photos and videos to update us and kept us informed throughout the day of how she was doing. It really gave us such peace of mind. We would love to book with her again in the future!”

“Elaine is my go-to sitter for my pup, Goose! She’s playful and full of energy, and always gets plenty of playtime and socialization with other dogs during her visits. Elaine is incredibly accommodating, even with last-minute bookings and flexible pick-up times. She also sends lots of updates and fun videos, which I really appreciate while I’m away. Highly recommend booking with her—you and your pup will be in great hands!”

“This is the second time my pup has stayed with Lindsay and I can’t praise her enough! She always takes such great care of him and I can feel totally worry-free with my boy in her care. She sends frequent updates and you can just tell she really cares and loves for the dogs in her care as if they were her own! Recommend her 10/10”

“Noemi and her family were very sweet and patient with our first time boarder. She sent updates and pictures showing our dog acclimating to their home and their own dog. Would definitely recommend her!”

“Araceli provided exceptional care for my two dogs. They were attentive to every detail of their routines, making sure both felt comfortable, safe, and well-loved while I was away. It was clear they truly care about animals, going above and beyond to ensure my dogs were happy and relaxed. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such capable hands. I highly recommend Araceli to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate pet care.”

Highly recommend Ann! She and her daughters were so gentle with my Havanese, Moca, who usually takes a while to warm up to new faces. It was such a relief to find a sitter with such a calm energy. Moca was well cared for and I'll definitely be booking with Ann again.

Lindsay kindly accepted a reservation to board our senior cavalier king charles spaniel when we unexpectedly had to attend a funeral out of state. She was very thorough and communicative in every stage of our interactions, from the meet and greet to the final pick up. While we were away, she shared updates about his wellbeing and went above and beyond in sharing pictures. I think Lindsay is a fantastic caregiver and is such a treasure for families with senior dogs. We would love to book Lindsay again and know that our dog with be in wonderful hands.

Colleen came to the rescue of our spring break vacation when our regular dog sitter wasn’t available. It’s hard to find a sitter for our anxious dog, but he was instantly comfortable with Colleen, and that’s a big relief! She took great care of our pup, sent lots of photos and videos to update how he was doing. Our little boy sure seemed happy and comfortable being with his new sitter. Colleen also saved us when we had a flight interruption coming back from our trip. Per our very last minute request, Colleen kept our pup safe one extra day until we were able to come home. We truly appreciate Colleen’s flexibility and understanding. We would definitely book with her again.

This was our first time leaving our 6 month puppy for a trip and Devin put all our fears at ease. She has a spacious backyard, comfortable home, and warm personality that our pup enjoyed. Especially loved all the videos and photos we received showing our puppy playing with new friends. Can’t say enough how grateful we are that we found Devin!

Chris and Dezjax are amazing. My dog Loup is very sweet, but pretty sensitive to new environments and can be quite anxious. Chris and Dezjax provide such a calm environment and extend that energy so gracefully that Loup is almost *more* relaxed coming home from a stay with them. They are kind and super easy to communicate with. I'm incredibly grateful to have found such great care for Loup. I can't recommend them highly enough!
Jennifer has taken care of our pug Rosita on several occasions. All instances were a week or longer and she made sure to keep us updated daily. Our dog has dietary restrictions and Jennifer followed all of the instructions. Rosita always came back cheery and looks forward to stay with Jennifer.

Kelley and her son are absolutely LOVELY and made our anxious dog’s first overnight with them just wonderful. Even after just 24 hours we could see that our furry baby was at ease with them and relaxed in their home. Kelley is a great communicator- responsive and clear. I am thrilled to have found such a safe and loving ‘second home’ for our pup.

Excellent in every way. Caitlin has a very friendly personality that is excited about meeting and spending time with dogs. Her home is well equipped and comfortable to provide a home away from home for your dog. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone, just don't take away my next reservation!
