“Pat took amazing care of our 2 dogs! She took the time to make them comfortable in her home, sent us pictures and updates throughout the week, and gave them plenty of love and attention!”

“Lutisa was amazing with my Yorkie, Bintley!!!! She provided updates and videos, and made my Rover experience top knotch!!! If you are looking for great care for your furbaby, I highly recommend Lutisa!!!! 😃💞”

“Ellie & Karson were phenomenal! Due to my hectic schedule, they were willing to meet me & pick-up Knox. I also received photos and messages throughout the entire stay. Knox is a senior dog, so he requires a lot of attention & love due to his high anxiety. He also needed to take medicine on a daily basis. Ellie & Karson were able to administer the medicine & take Knox on a walk each day! He was very comfortable in their home as I was out of town for a work trip. Definitely highly recommend!”

“Brianna was amazing. So kind and patient with my one pup who is going blind and gets anxious. They clearly had a great time and they are very sensitive - I cannot recommend her enough!!!”

“Holly and her family are the best! This was the first time we left our pup with someone since adopting her, but she cared for Sydney like her own! I truly appreciated the frequent updates and pictures to let me know she was doing great. I know Sydney will be excited to go back to their house and get spoiled in the future.”

“Gina was great she provided daily updates and sent pics of my furry baby. I never worried about him I knew he was in good hands. I will definitely use her services again.”

“My lab mix had the BEST time! She’s a social girl who adores playing with other dogs and just being around people. Erica sends photo updates twice a day and it was so great to see how much fun my dog was having. I felt completely comfortable leaving her in Erica’s care. I’d recommend her to anyone and will absolutely use her again in the future.”

“Angela and her family were the best!! Grayson definitely enjoyed himself and we will definitely be booking again because we know he was cared for and loved!! Book with her!!!!”

“Excellent!! Gabrielle watched our 2 Yorkies when we took a trip overseas. She was attentive and kept us updated with how our pups were doing and sent pictures regularly. This gave us peace of mind while we were halfway across the globe. When we returned from our trip and picked up our dogs, it was obvious they had been well taken care of. I highly recommend Gabrielle. We will definitely book with her again!”

“Carrie is a wonderful dog sitter, she was happy to schedule a meet and great to make sure our dogs were compatible with hers and she was very accommodating with our anxious rescues needs. She sends updates and plenty of photos while they are there. Highly recommend Carrie and we will definitely use her in the future if we need someone to watch our boys!”

Pat was fantastic with our little guy. We got quick updates, and we could tell he was very loved while we were out on our trip. When we returned, he looked totally at home with her 2 dogs and was very happy just hanging out - no stress at all! We'll definitely be using her again in the future.

Pat is so sweet and friendly! My dog Molly has stayed with her several times and it has been a tranquil stay for Molly. Pat has a great outdoor area for the dogs to play and enjoy themselves. If you want photos and updates just reach out and she will send you a few. If you prefer a cadence or daily photos, I would recommend just letting Pat know in advance. Molly will be staying with Pat over Christmas and I know she will be in great hands!
