“Cal & Kelly took great care of my senior pup, Amber Louise, for nearly 3 weeks. I received daily pictures and updates on how Amber was doing and this gave me peace of mind while I was away. Cal was quick to respond to any questions I had and I could tell Amber was well taken care of from the pictures and when I picked her up. Thank you Cal & Kelly for taking such good care of my sweet and precious girl.”
“Great experience leaving Oliver with their family. The two of them were conscientious and considerate about understanding Oliver's needs and ensuring that I felt comfortable leaving him in their care while I was out of town. I wouldn't hesitate to leave Oliver with them again!”
“Johanna was awesome! She was super communicative and easy going. I know Louis loved staying with her and Panda, and I would absolutely have her watch him again.”
“Galen did a wonderful job taking care of our old dog. Her home was a calm environment and it seems like she, her family, and her older dog made our dog feel at home. She sent many pictures and it was great to see our dog having a nice stay. Would definitely book again!”
“Anne Marie warmly welcomed my little guy Hudson into her home! She sent photos, updates and took care of him just like her own. Will absolutely use her again next time I’m away.”
“Stephanie and Shawn are great doggie sitters. They took good care of Popeye!! They were patient since it takes a while for Popeye to come out of his shell ❤️”
“I have used Alex a number of times, he's actually my first choice in dog sitters but he's so great that his time gets booked pretty far in advance. He's such an enthusiastic and loving dog person that I know Champ is spoiled the whole time he's there. I can't ask for a better person to leave my fur baby with!”
“Brianne and her family did a wonderful job caring for Kaia! She went over and beyond for repairing one of Kaia’s favorite toys (several times). Her daughters snuggled and played with Kaia treating her with utmost care. She came back exhausted and I always say a tired pup is a happy one!”
“I had an excellent experience with Kerri as my dog’s sitter! From the moment I reached out, she was responsive, friendly, and professional. Blanca immediately warmed up to her, and it felt like she was right at home. Throughout the stay, Kerri sent regular updates, including photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Blanca returned home happy and well-cared for, and it was clear that she had enjoyed her time with Kerri—she even seemed a bit sad to leave! I highly recommend Kerri to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again for future trips.”
“Ares clearly had a lovely time staying with Haydenn! He was happy and tired when we picked him up. Getting a video of him making friends with another one of the dogs staying at Haydenn's was a lovely bonus. We'd absolutely ask Haydenn to watch Ares again.”
“Shanti was knowledgeable, very responsive and friendly. She communicated well about timing. Zara enjoyed playing with her dog Nico and enjoyed her stay. Would definitely be using Shanti for sitting in the future.”
“Absolutely wonderful experience with Brett and Shane! They took such great care of our dog, kept us updated with regular messages, and sent tons of adorable photos. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pup was happy and in such good hands. Highly recommend!”
“This is our third time leaving Luna with Kamille and we couldn't be happier! Luna loves her time at Kamille’s, she has plenty of play time and is very well taken care of. We appreciate the daily updates, photos and videos; communication with Kamille is always timely. We plan to have Luna stay with Kamille in the future :)”
“Justin and Jeremy were amazing! Everything was just so easy and straightforward with them, and was a very comfortable spot for Puggy (yes, she told me!) Thanks again guys, looking forward to next time!”
“Stephanie was awesome period. She was helpful and accommodating to our needs and scheduling as we were preparing for our trip. Throughout our trip she provided videos and pictures and daily updates Which helped satisfy our nervousness and anxieties of leaving our dog behind. We will continue to work with Stephanie in the future and will be looking forward to building stronger relationships with her. Thank you Stephanie for all the help you provided to our family, thank you so much. The service you provided was greatly appreciated.”
