“Celinda did great with our dog!! It was our first time boarding our dog and we were a little nervous how he’d do with other dogs. We loved how he had space to play with others and run in the back yard! She sent pictures of him while we were gone on our trip for 5 nights/6 days. It looked like he had so much fun. She was also very accommodating and we had no concerns. Thank you, will definitely be using her again! Highly recommend!!”
“Brianne did a great job with our Aussies. We got pictures and updates every other day and our pups loved playing with her dogs! She even took on our 3 month old Aussie pup. Thanks Brianne!”
“This was Bubba's first stay with someone other than family. Daisy made this whole experience great. Bubba seemed happy and really enjoyed hanging out with Bryna. I was put at ease with pictures and videos sent. Will be using Daisy and family for all our sitter needs in the future. Thanks again Daisy!”
“I appreciated that they were focused on getting Piper to eat since I'd relayed that when she gets anxious (like while I'm away) she tends to not want to eat. They sent well-timed pictures that showed the dogs relaxed by themselves or with one of the family. The stay went well but it was a bit confusing with having both ladies message me answers to the same question.”
“Kris watched my dog for 5 days and it was a wonderful experience! She sent us daily updates and photos and we appreciate all the care and play time she put into our “high energy” dog!”
“Tami was wonderful with our poodle! She was good at communicating with us during our time away, and it was reassuring coming home to an unstressed dog. Thank you, Tami! Hopefully Tami will allow us to share our dog with her again.”
“Heavyn went above and beyond to take care of my boy, I know he was treated like a member of the family while staying with her. She also was great in providing pictures and videos of him throughout his stay! 10/10 recommend 😊”
“Lisa was wonderful! This was our first time having to leave our baby with someone that he doesn’t know and it was great. If you want someone who will continually send pictures, videos and updates, Lisa is the one. I will definitely be booking with her again, no doubt about it!”
“Audrey was awesome! I never leave my Olive girl with anyone unless it’s relatives so I was super nervous. Audrey agreed to meet before hand and she put my mind at ease that I’m leaving my fur baby with somebody responsible and caring for animals. She sent me photos throughout the day and told me everything that they would be doing. She was also super flexible which I appreciated very much. I definitely will be going back to Audrey in the near future! Thank you Audrey!”
“We’ve been looking for the perfect pup sitter, and we finally found it! Thank you Cassandra for treating Benny like your own. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our 10 day trip. Great daily updates and pics. We are SO thankful we found you! Benny misses you and your pups already. We will reach out the next time we travel.”
“Ashle was awesome with our chocolate lab puppy! She made us feel super comfortable leaving him in her care, and it was clear he had a great time. She sent updates and photos, which we really appreciated, and our pup came home happy and tired (in the best way!). Would definitely book with her again—highly recommend!”
“Amber was so easy to work with. I requested an appointment the day before I needed to have my dog watched for the weekend and she very kindly accepted. I ended up cancelling because my last minute trip also got cancelled, but Amber was very understanding. I will definitely keep her in mind for future dog sitting opportunities.”
“Can't say enough! Greg was great with Gina being that she was from a shelter and had some mental issues. He was so awesome and knew what to do with her to keep her stable. I'm so appreciative.”
“I could not rave high enough about Ashley! She accepted a last minute booking for my golden retriever for 3 nights without hesitation! I got so many picture updates and could tell Murphy had an absolute blast. Will be booking with her again!”
“Hatsuki’s care and compassion shines in everything she does. She had special doggy treats, daily walks, pics, and updates often. My pup is a nervous clinger and she made him feel safe and loved 🤎 will recommend her to anyone!”
“Angel took care of our two dogs during our wedding weekend! She was wonderful! Super easy to book with, and very caring to our fur babies! At the last minute, we even asked if she could groom one of our dogs and she had no problem doing that for us! We will be reaching out for dog sitting in the future! Thank you!!”
