Rebecca and her fiancé are doing a great job on keeping the animals safe and happy under their care!”


“Arlissa was so flexible on our rather last minute request for her to watch our pups for a day! The pups and I felt welcome & she was able to entice our shy (pandemic) pups to come out and play in her lovely backyard with other friendly dogs and she even had a doggy pool. And: she took awesome pictures of our pups!!! Thank you so much Arlissa”


“Sierra is great! Super flexible with changes when things come up and my dog Linus seemed to have a great time with her pets. She sent updates through out the day and pics which was nice.”


“I’m very pleased with the care David provided our dog and the super job he did with keeping me apprised of his status and sharing pictures. It was the first time using David’s services and we will be returning.”


“I was coming to a Dayton Ohio for work and I was bringing my mini golden doodle pup along. I needed someone trustworthy to watch my baby boy, Arlo. I came across Katherine’s profile and immediately had that instinct that she was the one 😊 she was accommodating to my over protective mommy needs and agreed to hop on a zoom call with me beforehand. She was warm, nice and kind. It also helped she has 3 adorable little fur baby girls too. For the 4 days I was here for work she would take care of Arlo for me all day. She was extremely responsive and would send me pictures and videos all day without me even having to ask. She has a nice big fenced in backyard that Arlo loved running around freely in all day. Each evening I would pick him up he was exhausted from having fun playing all day. (His besty was her dog, Vanilla) 😊 I cannot recommend Katherine enough. She made my experience great and worry free. Thank you so much for taking great care of Arlo.”


“He was always respectful and quick to respond.He was flexible to have a meet and greet before leaving our pup for the day with him! Thank you for taking good care of him during the meet and greet mini date and looking forward to the full day soon.”

“Absolutely exceptional! Our experience with Loree was nothing short of phenomenal. From the moment we reached out, her professionalism and genuine love for animals shone through. Our furry family member was treated like royalty during their stay, receiving ample love, attention, and care. Communication was seamless throughout the entire process. We received regular updates, including adorable photos and videos, which truly eased our minds while we were away. It was evident that our dog was not only well looked after but also cherished during their time with Loree. Loree went above and beyond to accommodate our dog's specific needs and preferences, ensuring their comfort and happiness at all times. We returned home to a happy and content pup, which is the greatest testament to the quality of care provided. We cannot recommend Loree highly enough. If you're searching for a trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable dog sitter who treats your pet like family, look no further. Loree is simply the best in the business. Five stars doesn't seem like enough to express our gratitude!”

“Rebecca has cared for our Golden, Cameo, three or four times. We know Cameo is getting lots of attention and pets in a safe environment. She might even get more exercise while we’re away! She is always happy to be dropped off with Rebecca and feels at home there. Cameo is a senior pet and her food times and amounts are specific. I don’t worry that she will be over fed while there.”
