He greeted her with lots of kisses and even took the initiative to find out where cleaning supplies were after I mentioned Diego happy pees and cleaned up after him without needing to be asked. We will definitely be repeat customers! Thanks Lauren :)”
“We couldn’t be more pleased with our experience with Heather. After a few disappointing encounters with other sitters who didn’t even show up to meet our dog, Heather was a breath of fresh air. Not only did she show up as promised, but she immediately connected with our dog, treating him with genuine warmth and affection. While we were away, Heather cared for our pup as if he were her own—providing regular updates and photos that gave us complete peace of mind. It was clear he was in loving and capable hands. We wholeheartedly recommend Heather to anyone in need of a trustworthy, compassionate pet sitter. She exceeded all of our expectations.”
“Lydia has been such a joy to work with. She truly loves animals and cares about your pet. She was eager to learn our boy Oscar’s personality and made sure he felt special. She frequently updated us and sent lots of great pics. She was also very respectful of our home. Lydia is kind enthusiastic and very professional. Your fur baby will be in good hands.”
“Tara was very quick to respond and help us work out every detail for our first trip away from our 11 month old puppy, Bella. Tara’s daughter Emily had taken care of her on several occasions before, but we were still worried about our first longer trip away as she is very attached to us. Emily was extremely thoughtful about that, sending pictures and updates several times a day to put our minds at ease. She stayed in our home with Bella and not only took great care of her, following every detail of the lengthy list of care instructions I had provided, but also took great care of our home. Bella was in great spirits when we returned and our home was so neat and clean you would never have known anyone had been there while we were gone. I am so grateful for the very thoughtful care and professionalism from Tara and Emily and would recommend them to anyone who is looking for trustworthy, reliable, genuine care for their furry family members!”

“This is the first time I've had a sitter stay in my house instead of boarding my girls. After meeting Kathy and seeing how much my younger dog loved her, I felt confident in leaving for a week. However, she went above and beyond to love on my dogs so they wouldn't be upset that I was gone. She communicated daily, sent pictures, and tailored her schedule around the dog's needs. Kathy was also flexible when the dogfood unexpectedly ran out and I had to order more while out of the country. She offered to get food for them locally and then modified their feeding schedule while waiting for the food shipment. Both dogs were happy and healthy when I got home and its clear they were well loved and taken care of. The house was also cleaner than when I left! I've already asked Kathy if she is available for my next trip!”
“Alexsys was wonderful with Bailey! When I had a recent family emergency with my daughter going into labor three weeks early, I had town quickly. Alexsys jumped right in and took great care of Bailey, sending pictures and updates that really helped me feel comfortable leaving my furbaby. I would definitely book her again!”
