“Matt’s place is my girls favorite place! They get the backyard, the cozy home, and all the friends they could hope for!! They don’t want to come home! Thanks for taking such great care of my crazy girls!”


“Hilary took care of my dog, Penny, for 10 days. She did an awesome job! I got photo updates every couple days. Penny went on a hike and took a couple trips to the dog park. Hilary was very receptive to any needs Penny had and was very fast to answer questions. I would definitely use her again!”


“Ayme was a terrific sitter for our dog. She sent photos and North always looked happy. They went on long walks and relaxed in the back yard. We will definitely use her again.”

“Amy has been great to us. We've boarded with her several times, and our nervous pup has gotten comfortable staying with her. Amy is great on communication and sending updates”

“Julie was absolutely wonderful, I highly recommend and am really grateful for her thoughtful care of my elderly pup! It was helpful knowing my dog was in good company and enjoying all the smells and sunny spots in her nice backyard.”


“Damacia is an amazing sitter for my dog, Jazzy! She kept me updated with pictures and made sure Jazzy was well cared for the entire time. From the moment I met her at drop-off, she was so welcoming and kind. I also had a medical emergency at the airport and had to change my flight at the last minute. Danika was incredibly accommodating and allowed Jazzy to stay an extra night without hesitation. She responded quickly with genuine care and concern, which meant so much to me during a stressful situation. I truly appreciate her flexibility, professionalism, and kindness. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

“Ethel was so accommodating with our last minute request to book. She was flexible and timele responded to any messages. Highly recommend and would definitely re-book!”

“Amelia was wonderful! She was able to accommodate a short notice booking and took great care of my baby, Coconut! Communication was easy, and I felt comfortable knowing Coconut was in good hands.”

“Becky was an exceptional sitter for my pup! She expertly handled my shy and sweet boy, providing regular updates and photos. He was happy and well cared for the entire time. Becky's significant other was also very attentive and helpful—they make a great team! ☺️”

“Nicole was super easy to communicate with, and made sure to get as much information as possible to ensure an easy stay. She obviously cares very deeply about the pets entrusted to her care, and I wouldn't hesitate to book again.”


“I could not be more impressed with Cyndi! My dog Finley absolutely loved her, we got so many pictures, I did not worry about him for a single moment. We have a long stay coming up next week, and doing a “trial night” was exactly what I needed to calm my nerves!”

“Panda had a great time with Jennifer and her family. We appreciated the pictures and videos she sent, which showed how well Panda was being cared for. We’re very happy with the experience and hope to have Panda stay there again!”


“Fozzie had so much fun at Sam and Trout’s house! He enjoyed going on walks with them in the museum district and playing with toys. We loved getting photos over the weekend and Sam was great at communicating pick up times. Thank you for taking care of our boy while we were out of town on such quick notice - he loves a chill and cuddly weekend :-)”

“Sherri is very caring and honest. I was happy that Maggie was in good hands for 1 1/2 days. Highly recommended. She has a heart of an angel. I am disappointed that she is moving to another state.”

“Talen is the best, very patient my Cane Corso is very timid and anxious and Talen knew just what to do. You can tell she loves dogs. I will be booking her again, I almost didn't want to write this because I don't want her to get too many customers and we can't user her again. Lol”


“Kayla was excellent and kept us up to date on how our dog was doing. Even sent pictures showing how much he missed us. Lol. We will definitely be using her services for any future needs.”


“Terry was awesome! This was our dogs first stay away with a “new” person and she made us feel so comfortable leaving our dog. She took the time to get to know our dog before the stay and updated us with some pictures and even a video of how he was doing while we were away. We will definitely be going back!”

“My dog, Coco, had an amazing time during her stay! I got multiple pictures and videos daily of her playing with the other dogs. I never had to worry about Coco while we were away on vacation! I hope to be able to rebook with Wylie in the future.”

Alexander was such a great host for my Akita. He treated Rocko just like his own and I did not have to worry for even one second. He is great with communication and just great with dogs. Not everyone knows how to handle an Akita or big dog - Alexander 100% did and did the best job. I would recommend him 100% if you want your pet to be in the best hands. And I will be using him again!. Thank you agajn Alexander!

Becky was such an amazing dog sitter for our little guy Uno. I was so lucky to book her last minute! She has a lovely home with a backyard for the dogs to enjoy the sunshine. She sent us plenty of cute pictures to keep us updated on our trip. Would 100% book with her again.
