“Christina was an amazing sitter. She kept us informed when our dog was having troubles the first night. She went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable and less stressed. I will highly recommend her!! Will definitely use her again.”
“Jen was so wonderful with communication and made it easy for me to add in an extra night. We can tell Snickers had the best time and is going back again later this week”
“Linda was Amazing!!!! Her communication was outstanding and her care and love for my dogs was everything that I hoped for. I am so happy to have found such a wonderful, loving, caring, understanding dog sitter.”
“Brooke is truly amazing! We wholeheartedly recommend her as a pet sitter. She is incredibly reliable and a genuinely caring professional, and our cat, Jilapi, absolutely loves her. We will definitely be using her services again!”
“This was my first time using the app, and we truly could not have left our puppy in better hands. She and her sister were amazing last-minute dog sitters—beyond caring and communicative throughout the entire weekend. I received frequent pictures and thoughtful updates on how Stella was doing without ever having to ask, which gave me so much peace of mind. Thank you so much for taking such loving care of her!”
“Max loved staying with Cheri! She was professional, drop off/pick up were seamless, and I appreciated the picture updates Cheri shared daily - plus I could tell Max liked her right from the start.”
“Sophie stayed with Alexander for 18 days and was extremely well taken care of. He sent pictures everyday, which we enjoyed. I highly recommend using Alexander if you need a loving, caring home away from home for your dog.”
“Kayla is the absolute sweetest. She was so attentive to my Labrador puppy and made sure to keep me updated during my trip with photos and videos. Her yard is very spacious and he had so much fun playing and spending time there. I am forever grateful for her. Super patient and loving! Thank you Kayla will definitely be booking in the future again!”
“She took such great care of our dog Luna while we were away for 7 days. We loved receiving daily photos from their walks—it gave us so much peace of mind. Luna came back home happy, clean, and clearly well cared for. We would absolutely use her again and highly recommend her!”
“Oscar absolutely loved his visit with Kevin and his pups. We would definitely book with Kevin again. Such a wonderful experience and I felt at ease the entire time I was gone. Oscar came home and slept and slept because he had so much fun!”
“This was my first boarding experience for my 1 1/2 year old doggo. I was nervous and she was nervous. I needed more than a boarding option, I needed a family to care for my dog while I had to be out of town. That is what Kallee and Daniel provided, a family that loved her while I was gone. They went beyond what a boarding facility could offer and personally cared for my dog while she went through separation anxiety and missing her family. Sailor became the older sibling she needed and I received not only daily communication but updates and responses as I was going through my own separation issues from her. I couldn't have asked for a better home for my dog to be in while I was away. Their home is a perfect place for an active dog and they are the perfect family to care for an energetic dog especially one who needs support to come out of her shell while her family is away. I couldn't thank them enough for their care for my doggo.”
“Chayla has been keeping both my cat and dog for past few weeks and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter during my time of need! Thank you again girl!!”
“Really great experience overall. Carolina was reliable and made everything easy, and my dog seemed happy and comfortable the whole time. You can tell she cares and pays attention to the dogs. I’d definitely book with her again.”
“Priscilla did a fantastic job watching our Sophie while we were on vacation. We will definitely be using her again in the future. Priscilla was great with giving us updates and sending pictures and videos. I highly recommend her.”
“Could not be any more please with the entire experience. Lenis & Jose were wonderful. We met to get acquainted a couple of weeks prior to my trip to make sure that everyone was compatible. Kiefer and Oliver hit it off right away. After coming back from my trip, my furry buddy was exhausted and well cared for. Lenis will be my regular from now on!”
“Nikhol is wonderful! She is so caring with my pup! She was able to train him in ways I could not. If you want your dog in a family friendly environment, I highly recommend Nikhol. I could have not been happier!”

“Ava was so helpful to me while I was away! She took amazing care of my kitty boy! I gone for almost a week and she sent me so many pictures which reassured me that my boy was well taken care of and was happy😊 the next time I go on vacation, Ava would be my first choice to book!”
“Carli was great! She stopped in to visit my kitties and made sure they had all the needed. Very nice personality and excellent communicator. Would definitely recommend her to others and would book her services again in the future if needed!”

“It was a great relief knowing that Bella would be checked daily while I was away and Orly did an awesome job of not only making sure her litter was scooped, she had food and water but also interacting with her and sending me updates and pics daily.”
“Zach is extremely communicative and thorough, and treated my cats as if they were his own. I truly appreciate the extent of care he provided for our cats while we were away, and I couldn’t recommend him enough to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Peter was so great with our kitties! He followed our instructions perfectly and helped maintain their routines to avoid stress. They looked happy and healthy when we returned. And the house was clean too! Not even a speck of litter outside the boxes. Thank you for your attentiveness and care, Peter!”
“Chayla was great ! Take you for the cute videos and photos of my Chloe ! She was very responsive to messages and even was able to accommodate my cat for an additional night last minute. Thank you!”

“I made a last minute decision to have my pup go to doggy day care for the week while my other two dogs recovered from surgeries. Denys responded to my request quickly and was able to accommodate our times which I really didn't think anyone would do. She is a great person and my dog loves her and her whole family. My pup came home happy and tired every evening and she kept me updated throughout the stay. Denys did a great job keeping up with Furia's potty training, I think she may have actually gotten my pup to be better about going outside. I never worried about my dog and any time I did text I got a quick response with plenty of updates. I really enjoyed chatting with Denys, she is so sweet and I can tell she really loves what she does. I would absolutely recommend having her watch your pet, I know my pup had no shortage of attention over there and I really like that.”

“We were so happy to find Priscilla. While we live in another part of Florida, we needed to board our pup while in the area where we were visiting with family and spending Thanksgiving Day at their house. My son's dog doesn't get along with ours, so it was wonderful to find someone who could care for him during our visit. Priscilla was so good with him and she sent us photos and a video of him running in her yard with the other dogs. He looked so happy to have this play time. We will definitely consider boarding him with Priscilla the next time we plan a visit to our kids.”

“Kristina was amazing! She introduced us to her dog Lucy as soon as we got there, who was just the sweetest. She and Jigsaw hit it off right away. She sent lots of pictures and a video so we could see how he was doing during his day care visit. Kristina and her husband were friendly and responsive to text messages throughout the day. I highly recommend them, I can honestly say she has earned a repeat client with us!”
“Looks like my Daisy Mae is very happy! When I picked her up she looked really relaxed and wagging her tail, but she was barking and I think she was telling me why does she need to go home now! Lol she met new friends and that’s exciting and was well behaved. I brought her for day care before her week long stay and I see she is going to be fine. Alexander was amazing with her, sent pictures, and provided details on her day. He is professional and friendly. It is much appreciated.”

“We needed a daycare spot for a few days with a nice yard for our high energy pup as our fence was getting replaced. When looking for a sitter, Jonathan and Jennifer checked all of the boxes. We are so thankful for you both welcoming Sailor into a safe and fun environment. We received regular updates with photos (some of those were hilarious). She came home happy after each visit and was excited to see them every morning we dropped her off. We will definitely reach out in the future!!”
“Carilyn was the absolute best, so sweet and took great care of my pup. He usually doesn't warm up to people fast but as soon as he met her he was instantly comfortable and went right with her. Will definitely be using them again in the future!”

My dog walks three times a day and I dedicate 1 hour a day only for him for a long walk or play time outside so that he is happy and well exercised.
“Danielle did great with taking care of my two dogs and cat while we were away. She went above and beyond with her communication, sending pics and taking her time walking and feeding the pets. She even helped clean up with one of my dogs who had a poopy situation which was not at all expected, I felt bad my dog got runs while I was away. But she helped give him sweet potato so he felt better and even bought peewee pads, which just kept my mind at ease knowing my dog was being cared for. I would definitely rehire her again, she was just the best!”

“Christina was an amazing sitter. She kept us informed when our dog was having troubles the first night. She went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable and less stressed. I will highly recommend her!! Will definitely use her again.”
“Sophie stayed with Alexander for 18 days and was extremely well taken care of. He sent pictures everyday, which we enjoyed. I highly recommend using Alexander if you need a loving, caring home away from home for your dog.”
“Kayla is the absolute sweetest. She was so attentive to my Labrador puppy and made sure to keep me updated during my trip with photos and videos. Her yard is very spacious and he had so much fun playing and spending time there. I am forever grateful for her. Super patient and loving! Thank you Kayla will definitely be booking in the future again!”
“She took such great care of our dog Luna while we were away for 7 days. We loved receiving daily photos from their walks—it gave us so much peace of mind. Luna came back home happy, clean, and clearly well cared for. We would absolutely use her again and highly recommend her!”
“Oscar absolutely loved his visit with Kevin and his pups. We would definitely book with Kevin again. Such a wonderful experience and I felt at ease the entire time I was gone. Oscar came home and slept and slept because he had so much fun!”
“This was my first boarding experience for my 1 1/2 year old doggo. I was nervous and she was nervous. I needed more than a boarding option, I needed a family to care for my dog while I had to be out of town. That is what Kallee and Daniel provided, a family that loved her while I was gone. They went beyond what a boarding facility could offer and personally cared for my dog while she went through separation anxiety and missing her family. Sailor became the older sibling she needed and I received not only daily communication but updates and responses as I was going through my own separation issues from her. I couldn't have asked for a better home for my dog to be in while I was away. Their home is a perfect place for an active dog and they are the perfect family to care for an energetic dog especially one who needs support to come out of her shell while her family is away. I couldn't thank them enough for their care for my doggo.”
“Chayla has been keeping both my cat and dog for past few weeks and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter during my time of need! Thank you again girl!!”
“Priscilla did a fantastic job watching our Sophie while we were on vacation. We will definitely be using her again in the future. Priscilla was great with giving us updates and sending pictures and videos. I highly recommend her.”
“Could not be any more please with the entire experience. Lenis & Jose were wonderful. We met to get acquainted a couple of weeks prior to my trip to make sure that everyone was compatible. Kiefer and Oliver hit it off right away. After coming back from my trip, my furry buddy was exhausted and well cared for. Lenis will be my regular from now on!”
“Nikhol is wonderful! She is so caring with my pup! She was able to train him in ways I could not. If you want your dog in a family friendly environment, I highly recommend Nikhol. I could have not been happier!”
“Terri is the BEST! She cared for our baby girl like her own. When she heard I had a German shepard she got excited, which I wasn't expecting, I usually get turned away. Terri sent pictures and was patient with us as my daughter constantly wanted updates and more photos ?. We will definitely continue to use Terri and Rover.”
“Troy and Juliana did a great job taking care of our three dogs. They were very pleasant and easy to work with. I would recommend them to anyone looking to have their pets well cared for.”
“Lisa was a great fit for our dogs, especially our shy girl. Based on the photos and videos she shared, Luna looked happy and playful. Lisa is great with dogs and she had mostly medium sized to large breeds in her care during the stay. Her calm nature and structure kept the doggies safe and in check, while getting play time. Our pups also looked like they made themselves at home during rest. Lisa is also great with communication and providing updates. We will definitely be repeat customers.”
“Karina was extremely professional and caring. She treated Dutch with love and respect, and she even gave me grace when I had an emergency and was running behind schedule. She gave me regular updates and even paid special attention to Dutch’s diet. I would gladly use her again when available and needed.”
“Alexandra was great with my Milo. From the moment Milo met her he was excited!! She updated me with pictures while I was away!! Definitely would recommend Alexandra to watch your fur baby!! She was awesome with mine!!”
“Kevin and Gaby loved my baby just like their own! They sent me photos of her and were understanding that I was a helicopter mama. I had an emergency (canceled flight) and they were sooo accommodating and understanding. I won’t have anyone else watch my baby whenever I go away!”
“Christy was wonderful with my dog. He can be a handful and is very energetic, but he came home happy and even took a nap so I know he got some good playtime in! I will definitely use Christy in the future.”
“We have been booking Maria’s services regularly since last October. We travel frequently and making sure our Dog and senior cat are well taken care of is essential to our ability to do so. Maria always goes above and beyond. She sends plenty of updates and photos/videos. She makes sure to provide an enriching environment and so much nurturing. I swear the animals are sad when their time with Maria ends!”
