“So grateful to have found Jeff and Beth! This was my first time leaving my dog with a sitter and felt so at ease. They do a great job with updates and welcomed my dog into the family. When we got home, she seemed happy, relaxed and social. They are great communicators. It was super easy to facilitate meet and greet, and I knew from their thoughtful questions that they were responsible and conscientious dog sitters.”


“Great experience boarding our pup with Karen. It is difficult to find someone you can trust with taking care of your pup where you will be comfortable they will make the right decisions if anything unexpected arises. We are glad we spent the time to find and board with Karen.”


“Mary is wonderful! We recently adopted our dog from a shelter and he has some separation anxiety, so we weren't sure how his first overnight stay would go, but Mary's patient and thoughtful approach helped him feel comfortable quickly. We appreciated that she set up a meet & greet with her dog in advance, and then was in touch throughout his stay. We'll be sure to book Mary in the future.”

We are very pleased with his service and surely will be using him in future and recommend him to anyone who is looking for a caring pet sitter.”

“Eiko is such a fantastic sitter who we truly trust. She has watched our dog twice now while we are traveling, and both times we felt very comfortable knowing our dog was in good hands. The first time she watched our dog, she arranged a meet and greet. The second time, our dog, who is normally on the anxious side, was so excited to see her house again that he ran right up to the front door. She is very caring and friendly and sends us lots of updates. Highly recommend!”

“I can't recommend Anthony and Nikita, enough as dog sitters! They went above and beyond in caring for my pup during the holiday season. They were incredibly attentive, showering her with love, cuddles, and outdoor adventures. She had so much fun during her stay, especially with personalized outings to dog parks where she met new pups and people. They were always closely monitoring her and making sure she was safe and happy. I also loved receiving adorable photo updates that showed just how much she was enjoying her time. She was the happiest she’s ever been while I was away, and I truly felt at ease knowing she was in such good hands. If you're looking for top-notch dog sitters, Anthony and Nikita are the perfect choice!”

“Our dog Brody seemed comfortable with Alex from the first introduction and did very well in her care. She has an upbeat and welcoming manner, and a wonderful way of speaking to him directly. He often does not eat the first day or so that we were away but that was not a worry when he was with Alex. She understood his needs very well and took excellent care of him. I would definitely use Alex again for his care.”
