“Whitley took such great care of my senior dog. Shout outs for the last minute accomodation. I really appreciated the videos, reports and that her dog was such a good host too.”
“She is the nicest babysitter my dog has ever had I can tell just by the photos that he felt comfortable with her she was so understanding because he has bladder issues and still does mark the house sometimes but she made sure that he had his diapers on 24/7 her pets are so nice and made my furbaby feel welcome. And I cannot have an asked for a better person to babysit my baby while I was gone. I had no worries whatsoever. Thank you once again 🙌🏽❤️”
“Mark was excellent with our dogs, he updated us and took pictures for us to see. He was responsive when I reached out as well. My dogs look very happy and relaxed. He also played with them a lot which is a lot of work as one of my dogs doesn’t seem to ever get tired. I would definitely book with Mark again, I would highly recommend him also to anyone else who’s looking for a dog sitter who pays close attention to your dogs and takes great care of them.”
“Monica watched our dog during the Christmas holiday for 2 wks. We had a family trip overseas & our usual sitter was away. So we were just appreciative that Monica was available! The meet & greet went very well. She has a fenced backyard which is a necessity for our dog who is very fast! Monica only takes 1 dog at a time which is great. Our dog loves to get all the attention & I’m sure she got it! Monica sent pics & communicated with us often which was wonderful since we missed her very much. That was the longest we’ve been away. I would definite recommend Monica and trust her to watch our dog again.”
“We have used Steven several times for our pet boarding and he is excellent with my Spinks. Spinks is always happy and exhausted from all the exercise he gets at Steven’s. I highly recommend him for your pet sitting/boarding needs.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than Lauren!! She took such amazing care of snickers while I was away — attentive, loving, and super responsible. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. My dog looked happy, relaxed, and clearly enjoyed their time together. It’s such a relief knowing I have someone I can fully trust. I highly recommend Lauren to anyone looking for truly compassionate and reliable pet care!”
“I could not have asked for better sitters for our 10-month old puppy! Amy and her family went above and beyond to care for Jojo and ensure she had a great time while we were out of the country on a 10-day vacation. I can't thank them enough for giving us a worry-free vacation, with daily pictures and videos and hilarious updates. Not to mention Finley was the best boy and companion for Jojo! Amy cared about every detail prior to our departure to ensure Jojo was safe and well taken care of. We are so lucky to have found Amy and family (and Finley) and would recommend them in a heartbeat.”
“Queeny is one of my favorite dog sitters. I never have to worry about my dog when she’s in her care. Good communication and very flexible. Queeny and her husband take her on walks and play in the yard with her every time she’s there. She always seems pumped to go to their house.”
“I was worried that My dog would be too energetic but Britnie took care of Cruz so well! He was definitely so love & well taken care of. She send me photos and kept me updated on him. A+++++ will definitely book my dog with Britnie again! Thank you so much for making our first dog daycare so smooth!”
“Sydney did amazing with our girl Paprika. She’s a big scary pit mix who just wants constant love and attention. Sydney sent so many updates, especially on the first night letting us know Paprika was settling in well, and gave her so many sweet cuddles. She even crocheted her a little hat! We will definitely book with Sydney again!”
“Lydia was so sweet and welcoming! We really appreciate her taking care of our dog Pluto over the weekend, especially since we had to book last minute. Pluto had so much fun playing with her dog Ophelia! Lydia sent us a lot of updates and photos throughout the weekend. Thank you so much for a great experience!”
“Judith was great and very accommodating for a last minute request. Judith sent photos and videos of Scooby enjoying himself and making himself at home. Scooby slept for 10 straight hours after returning home, he had a lot of fun with the other dogs and kids in the home! Scooby made some new friends and would definitely bring Scooby back!”
“Christina was wonderful Dogsitter! She watched my Jax this past weekend and truly went above and beyond. From the moment we met, I could tell she genuinely loves animals. She kept me updated with sweet photos and messages, so I always knew he was safe, happy, and loved. She followed all instructions perfectly. When I came back, he was relaxed and clearly had been well cared for.”
“When I say my FurBaby was well cared for- he was!! They took exceptional care of Hendrixx. They sent numerous videos everyday- which I loved and appreciated. I highly recommend Mou and Yanling. I definitely will be using them for all of my boarding and sitting needs for Hendrixx.”
“Abby did a great job taking care of my german shepherd/mastiff. He felt comfortable, enjoyed exploring their house and backyard! He got to go on walks and get attention while we were out of town for the weekend.”
“Eva and Rado are an absolutely AMAZING couple. They both shower our little Missy with love and attention. I never worry for one minute when Missy is with them. She is so well taken care of. She gets so excited when she sees them both and really enjoys her stay. I just can't say enough about how great they both are.”
“Kadi was soo sweet and accommodating! Definitely recommend her if anyone is looking for a good and loving pet sitter! I will ask her to watch my dog Millie again in the future!! 😍😇🥰”
