“Yolanda is an outstanding pet sitter. She is very easy to work with and is great about keeping you in touch with your pet via photos and videos while you’re away. Our Rory seemed very happy staying and playing with Yolanda and JoJo ( her adorable dog). We hope to use Yolanda for any future travels on which we can’t take Rory.”
“We had no worries dropping of our Golden Retriever at David's for the another week while we were out of town. She is always happy to see him when I drop her off and I am confident that she is in good hands. I have used David numerous times and we will be back when we take our next trip!”
“A last minute change to a planned trip made us look for a reasonable alternative to boarding which I won’t ever do again. Brian was proactive and professional in helping us solve our problem. He met our dog right away to make sure it was a good fit. Communication was plentiful (with pics) and we felt good knowing our dog was with someone who cared. We will use him again for sure.”
“Sherry was very communicative, accommodating for an energetic puppy, and went above & beyond with treats! Mila was treated like the princess she is. I appreciated the transparency and patience she provided. I would leave her with Mila again in a heartbeat (and will again soon!).”
“He was above and beyond. My new rescue had to be left behind for the holidays and wasn’t super comfortable yet, so he had some behavioral issues and, I’m embarrassed to say, ruined some of George’s valued possessions. George was beyond kind and gracious/understanding. He sent pictures and videos of my dog playing with his and I could see that he was having a good time”
“We've been entrusting Kate to watch our needy, senior pup for the past couple of years, and there is no one we trust more. She provides regular photos and updates, and she is firm and proactive with dogs who need a little extra structure and support. Belle loves going to "camp" with Kate while we're on vacation!”
“Emily and Christine were fantastic. Our dog had a great time and was very well taken care of. Birdie seemed to really like them and their dog, Lilo. We will definitely book them again in the future.”
“Melissa and Cody are wonderful and so is their dog! My dog is an active senior dog (so she needs long walks and lots of pets and kisses) who didn't do well at a traditional boarding facility so I was a little nervous about boarding her rather than using a dog sitter in our home. Haven was so happy -- she loved Mel and Cody. She made herself right at home -- they have a fenced in backyard and lots of places to walk. I was very impressed and will definitely use them again! THANK YOU!”
“Danita and her family were amazing with our dog Finley. She updated us frequently and sent photos of our dog settling in and getting comfortable. I knew our dog was in good hands, was well taken care of, and got plenty of walks and belly rubs. I would 100% recommend Danita to care for your dog!”
“Eleanor took amazing care of our dog! She was very responsive, sent updates, and treated him as if he was her own dog. She has a big yard for your dog to run around! We will definitely be using her for future dog sitting needs!”
“All the hype about Dante is true! He’s communicative, accommodating, and really great energy. He asks a lot of questions to ensure my Kado was well taken care of. Dante is someone who truly loves what he does and that makes me happy. I think Kado and I found a permanent sitter until Dante retires us lol”
“Juliana was truly a godsend, I can’t imagine leaving Milton with anyone else, she took amazing care of him, sent us photos and updates everyday and truly made it feel like he was staying with extended family ❤️ she treated him like one of her own dogs and we will absolutely be using her for all of our future trips!”
“Ami and James were so responsive and we all loved the daily pictures and videos of our sweet puppy, Penny! She came home having made new furry friends, and, best of all, she was TUCKERED out! Definitely will be booking with Ami, James, and their lovely family again. :)”
“Rita did such an amazing job with Rocco. She kept me updated the whole time I was away and made me feel extremely comfortable. Your dog will be in good hands with Rita!”
“Dex always has a wonderful time at Carrie and Jon’s house. They send updates regularly and go above and beyond to make sure Dex is comfortable in their home. They take him on regular walks and even gave him some enrichment puzzles to keep him active. Highly recommend!”
“Alexandra and family are always wonderful to my baby boy! But this time they go above and beyond! We left for a week. And unfortunately, he ran out of food. Alexandra and family cooked him homemade food, like I did with him! Just exceptional!!!”
