“I can’t say enough great things about my dog’s experience with Mark and his family. My very active Lab Mix came home from a week of boarding and took a nap. She played her little heart out while she was with Mark and his family. I received daily updates and pictures, which is very comforting when you are overseas during the boarding. I can’t wait to schedule my dog’s next visit.”
“Brian and Sheena were great with Charlie. They sent us pics daily and updates on how he was doing. We are grateful for their care of him. Also our plane was delayed, so we were an hour late picking him up. They were very understanding. We will use them again.”
“Diego was great (and Coco too ☺️)! He encouraged a meet and greet, was very patient and asked questions to understand my dog’s habits and needs. It was the first time leaving her with anyone and went smoothly. Diego also sent regular updates and pictures, so I felt informed of how things were going. Definitely recommend and already booking the next stay!”
“My boy Shep had a great stay with Stella, he made two new best friends and thoroughly enjoyed his vacation. Stella is the absolute best providing updates and pics of Shep through out his visit and BONUS Stella washed Shep’s blankie, bed, and gave my guy a nice wipe down. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ it he’s made a great 2nd home with Stella!!!”
“First time leaving my dog with anyone other than her breeder. Tommy put me at ease with the questions he asked prior to our booking. He was careful to try to determine whether my dog should socialize with the big or small dogs, what behaviors were allowed (up on furniture, etc). Throughout the stay he provided updates and photos. It was clear that my dog was well cared for and having fun. Drop-off and pick-up were smooth and easy. I will use Tommy again in the future!”
“Excellent care and service, kept my corgi entertained and well cared for, enjoyed the daily updates and pictures/videos. Will definitely use your service again. Thank you.”
“Nicole was amazing! She has been a great communicator, took pictures of my dog and some of those are my favorites of my doggo right now, and when she thought my dog might have an injury she let me know to call to see what I felt the next steps were. My princess looked so happy within Nicole’s care and she had fun with the other pups too. Thank you Nicole!”
“Cynthia was great! She sent photos and videos every day and kept me updated very frequently on how my Shuri was doing. She has a nice place in Northeast that made pickup/drop off very easy. I can tell the dogs had a lot of fun doing daily trips to the park and playing in the backyard.”
“My pup Rogan loves staying with Alli and her family. They are so attentive to his needs and it's clear that he feels right at home. And Alli always sends pictures and updates to let me know how he's doing. I highly recommend Alli!”
“Karen was great with my baby! She sent picture updates throughout the day and also made sure to tell me signs of him being sick. I would recommend to anyone to have her watch their fur babies.”
“This is my 4th booking with Alder and Kathy and unless they are unavailable, I will continue to book with them. They are incredibly kind and soooo good with my little guy who can be shy. They send updates and I literally NEVER worry when he’s staying with them.”
“I left Sophie with Ari and Ame again for 2 nights, and again, I could tell she was well taken care of and happy. I received lots of photos and videos, and could see she loved playing with the other dogs there, especially Marshall, Ari and Ame's dog. They even did the transfer for me from another sitter, since the other sitter couldn't keep Sophie for the whole duration of my trip, and I really appreciate that! Thanks!”
“Jeremy and Ty were fantastic dog sitters for Coco. They were professional, communicated clearly, and kept us updated the entire time. Coco clearly enjoyed herself and was happy and relaxed when we picked her up. I would definitely trust them to watch her again!”
“I have booked with dogsitters before, but Crystal was the first dog sitter that was sooo detailed throughout the whole process. When I booked with her, she set up a zoom call to go over everything regarding my dog. I was soo amazed. She sent pictures everyday and assured me that Dallas was in good hands. I will definitely book with her again.”
“Serah was great with our dog. She sent daily pictures as promised and met with us prior to his stay to ensure he was comfortable. She is definitely great with pets! Thank you again!”
“Janelle did an outstanding job watching my cat, Wok! I was on an extended vacation and she continued to send me pics and updates, which was very important since it was Wok's first time with a sitter. I would definitely use her again”
“Sabrina was AMAZING! Great with keeping me updated on JoJo and provided pictures along the way! Jojo has a great time and will definitely recommend Sabrina to everyone!”
“She is A. M. A. Z. I. N. G!! It was so evident that my Ms Peppa had a wonderful time. In the future I will Definitely use Briana OVER AND OVER as long as she will accept us.”
“I would give Yolanda a 5 rating on keeping my dog Rocky. She consistently sent me pictures and kept me updated on how things were going and I will use her again”
“Chyna is absolutely amazing!!! I have used her multiple times now to watch my Lola girl and will continue to do so. Lola absolutely loves being there. She gets super excited even just walking up to the house now, and is very happy when I come to pick her up! Chyna does a great job at sending pictures/videos &updating me throughout the stay. Her pup gets along great with Lola. Finding someone you feel totally comfortable leaving your fur baby with is rare but I have found that with her! Definitely recommend!!”
