4. Alicia & James A.
“Cooper had a wonderful stay with Alicia and James! Their two dogs are his new best friends. Photo and video updates let me know that he was happy, active, and eating - all reassuring, especially for a first visit with a new sitter. Cooper will definitely be back and I know he can’t wait!”
5. Theresa C.
“This is our second time booking Theresa and this time for about a week. We are extremely pleased with how Theresa has welcomed Panga back and helped her get acclimated again. Through out the stay, Panga has received lots of love, attention, walks, and belly rubs! Panga has opened up so much and we are so proud of her and the work Theresa has done with her. Really thankful for Theresa and her family’s over pouring love on our sweet dog. If ever the need, we will certainly be back to have Panga stay with Theresa and her family. ♥️”
6. Timothy C.
“My crazy lil pug puppy had a great time at Timothy's! He has a nice doodley dog, a huge backyard and hosted a couple other small/medium-sized dogs while Plum was there which she LOVED. Timothy sent great photos of Plum sprinting around playing chase with the other pups and hanging out with chew toys. Definitely will have Plum stay again next time we need a sitter.”
7. Stephanie P.
“When I dropped off our dog, Roxy, she was shaking for fear of being left behind by me. Stephanie was very kind in her approach to Roxy and she seemed to settle. Stephanie sent me pictures throughout the visit. When we picked Roxy up, she was not shaking or barking, which she typically would be when boarded. If in the area again, we would definitely rebook with Stephanie if we had a need .”
8. Pam F.
“Pam was amazing with my pup! She sent regular updates, was very well prepared, and definitely gave lots of love to her throughout the stay. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a boarder!”
9. Meghan A.
“Meghan was absolutely amazing! My fur baby has separation anxiety so I was a little nervous, but he did so well! I went out of town for 9 days and was so at ease knowing my dog was in great hands. She sends daily updates with pictures so you know exactly how they did that day. I would absolutely recommend Meghan!”
10. Joy & Rodney S.
“Joy and Rodney watched my little puppy Ace for a little under a week and they were absolutely wonderful!!! I was very nervous about leaving him for that long and they assured me that he would be fine. They allowed him to interact with the other dogs they were watching and he did well with their monitoring. They sent pictures of him throughout the stay and when I picked him up I could tell he was a little hesitant on leaving lol. Ace Def enjoyed his stay with Joy and Rodney. I would recommend them to anybody they were with absolutely wonderful”

“Wendy is our go-to every time when Leo needs to be taken care of. She’s responsive and trustworthy. Leo was happy and taken good care of every single time! Thank you Wendy!”
12. Brianna B.
“Brianna was just perfect. She identified my dogs’ personalities right away, and allowed Jaco to be rowdy with her dog in the backyard, while my second dog Sonja sat quietly inside, and was the perfect lady that Brianna described. No hesitation at all to hire Brianna again, especially since she lives in my neighborhood.”

14. Varsha K.
“I can’t thank Varsha enough for the exceptional care she provided to my senior dog. My dog has vision and hearing issues, along with anxiety, and is quite finicky about meals, but she handled everything with incredible patience and compassion. I especially appreciated the frequent updates, pictures, and videos she sent, which gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in loving hands. Varsha went above and beyond to ensure my dog was comfortable and happy, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”
15. Cal & Kelly T.
“Cal and Kelly went above and beyond in taking care of my dog while I was away. From the very beginning, they made me feel completely at ease with their warm communication and attention to detail. They sent daily updates, along with the most amazing videos and pictures that truly captured my dog’s happiness and comfort. I could tell they genuinely cared about her well-being and treated her like their own. Their dogs were very friendly and loving. Their dedication and love for animals are clear, and I’m so grateful for the exceptional care they provided. I would 100% recommend Cal and Kelly to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring, and communicative pet sitters. They’re simply the best!”
