“We have used Myle several times now to watch our dog Frankie and are very pleased. Frankie fits right in with her home environment and gets along well with her dogs. She spends a lot of time playing tug and fetch with him and takes him out for many walks. Frankie is well cared for and Myle posts lots of pictures of him to keep our mind at ease. We highly recommend Myle!!!”

“Ming was absolutely awesome, his quick solutions to my problems while I was over sea's is highly commendable, I will definitely be using him moving forward in any and all my business trips”

“Kaylee and Nick did so great with our pup! Great communication, very easy going and just love taking care of your dog for you. They shared photos and video and it was so great to know our dog was having a great time while we were away. . Would definitely use them again!”

“Steve was an exceptionally good dog sitter for our two dogs. They had never spent overnights with a different person, so we were not sure how it would go, but Steve was really good with them. He sent us texts and pictures more than once a day to reassure us they were in good shape. He was kind and friendly with them, going above and beyond to care for them. We highly recommend Steve and will certainly seek him out for future sittings.”

“Very nice family and sent lots of photos for only being there 1 day. Seems to have a good understanding of dog behavior. Their dog is very quiet and well behaved. Large fenced backyard with a big shade tree. I would recommend Aimee for dog sitting.”

“Shawna and her partner, Hannah, did an amazing job watching my dogs! They drove to pick them up/drop them off and kept them at their house over a long weekend. I have a senior rescue dog who can be skeptical of new people, but he warmed right up to Shawna and Hannah. He enjoyed all the cuddles, special toys, and looking out their big windows! I also have an 8 month old puppy who made herself right at home. Shawna and Hannah were super understanding of all my pups’ quirks and made them feel so loved with walks, treats, and lots of opportunities for cuddles. I received several pictures and videos each day. Shawna and Hannah responded super quick to any messages I sent and were attentive to all of our needs! I highly recommend booking with Shawna!!”

“Charlie and Murphy had a great time at Nicole's house. Nicole was great to work with. She was quick to respond to messages and kept us updated on how "the boys" were doing. We would highly recommend Nicole!”

“She took amazing personal care of my dog, and highly recommend to anyone that wants their pet well taken care of while they're away. She also gave daily updates and pics of my dog while under her care which was greatly appreciated.”

“Amanda’s communication was excellent and we discussed my dog’s feeding schedule and needs and she made sure to accommodate. I also received several cute photos during his stay. I could tell he was happy when I went to pick him up. Definitely recommend!”

“Nathan took excellent care of our dog Luna. He provided updates and pictures and Luna had a great time. I will definitely use his service again in the future and definitely recommend him.”

“We loved Debra. & oh my, so did our Buddy Bear. She spoiled him rotten. We will definitely be using Debra again. We highly recommend her. She has a sweet, loving & cozy home. Your pups will love her back yard. ❤️❤️❤️🐶”

“So happy to have left our pup with Tiffany and her family! He made himself at home and had a much better time than at a boarding kennel. Will absolutely rebook again!”


“Eric did a great job taking care of my dog Zelda and keeping me up to date on her well being. Eric even followed up on her health after I picked up Zelda which goes to show that he cares about the pets that he sits for. Would highly recommend and will use again. Thanks Eric!”
