1. Richard T.
“My husband and I needed a sitter short notice and Rich came to the rescue. We needed someone to board our 1 year old crazy Samoyed pup and Rich welcomed him into his home with open arms. He sent us photos and videos while we were away and you could tell our pup just had the best time playing. Thank you for being so accommodating and caring. We are excited to have found a sitter close to home we can trust while we are away and look forward to taking him back next time!”
2. Victoria K.
“Victoria took great care of Bell! I received multiple videos of Bell everyday and could tell she looked very happy. Victoria made sure to send updates with the videos as well. I will definitely want to book again.”
3. Audrey M.
“Bo seemed very at ease at Audrey's house. I appreciated the daily updates on him too! Thank you so much - will rebook if you're available the next time”
4. Brittany R.
“Brittany was exceptional. We boarded our 7 month old puppy with her. She was super attentive, responsible and knowledgeable. Our dog is fed a raw diet with supplements and she was super flexible with that. She kept us in the loop with photos / updates on the daily. We felt like our Beau was at a resort / vacation himself - getting to socialize with her two friendly dogs and loving family. Brittany would set up a doggy pool in their fenced backyard for him to play in. He was taken up numerous walks and play / fetch sessions! We were even sent home with a goodie bag and report card! Absolutely loved our stay with Brittany and we’ll definitely be using her hospitality again! Thank you so much!”
5. Kristi L.
“Summer stayed with Kristi for a week. Kristi did a great job with Summer! Kristi sent updates and multiple photos/videos every day, which helped put my mind at ease. Summer had stayed with Kristi for one night beforehand, and when I dropped Summer off this time she was super excited and happy to see Kristi again! If I need a dog sitter again in the future, I will definitely use Kristi again!”

8. Augusta W.
“I’ve used Augusta multiple times for my dog Hershey, and she has always been very accommodating and quick to respond. When I leave town and my dog is with Augusta it allows me not to have to worry about my doggo. She always provides updates and pictures as well, and is friendly. Highly recommend.”

12. Michael H.
“We are so happy with our dog's care by Michael and his wife while we were on vacation for 2 weeks. Our dog is a nervous dog so they paid close attention to her and she settled in nicely. They sent us updates every day with a photo. We will definitely use them again!”
13. Kathleen K.
“Kathleen is wonderful! She took such great care of our dogs:) We usually travel with our dogs, but because we were going to Italy we used Kathleen. She sent us texts, pictures and video daily and we were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about our dogs. They had an amazing vacation themselves! She took them for daily walks, cuddled and played with them just as we would have. Thank you Kathleen for taking such good care of our babies! I highly recommend her for all of your fur babies! We will definitely be calling Kathleen for our next trip:)”
14. Sarah N.

15. Bianca & Ryan W.
“Bianca and Ryan were absolutely amazing to my two dogs! My dogs absolutely LOVED them and they had the time of their lives running around in the yard and playing fetch! They provided me lots of pictures and videos to make sure I know they were okay and having fun while I was on vacation. I will DEFINITELY be using them again!!!”
16. Patty C.
“Patty was fabulous. She picked Tilly up and returned her to my location. I was working out of my home town. Tilly was a happy girl when she came back. She got to play with Patty's little dogs. I would use her again w/o hesitation.”
17. Ann & Bruno K.
“Ann, Bruno and their pup were great with Jimmy on his weekend stay! I got regular updates with pictures each day and Jimmy came back healthy and happy. Would choose them again and definitely recommend to other pup parents. 😀”
18. Kirsten S.
“Kristen was fantastic. She's very flexible with the schedule and allowed us to pick our pup up throughout our trip so he could join us at the dog friendly locations. We would 100% use her again if needed.”
19. Nelia & Brett M.
“I am happy that I found someone I can trust to watch our dog well we are away. Neil’s was excellent. She took great care of our dog and I will be returning in the future.”
20. Krista C.
“Krista and her dog, Griffin, were the perfect hosts for my two Malt-Shih 2 y.o. pups. As with any siblings they have very different personalities, one outgoing but the other, very anxious. Krista, with her calm demeanor, won him over in no time, assisted by Griffin (a large dog whose size would normally trigger fear) mirrored his owner's gentle personality. I will definitely request Krista and Griffin in the future.”
