“Rachel was very communicative while we were away on vacation. She sent us pictures of our furry friend and updates. She had the pool out for the dogs and I felt like she was being well taken care of and it eased my mind while away. My dog came home exhausted! Which tells me she had a lot of play time. Happy with our experience”
“I am so thankful for Joanne and the wonderful care she provided for our 16 yo pup, Ginger! Grateful for the wonderful home environment she welcomed Ginger into while we were gone. Appreciate that she works from home allowing her to be more available to tend to pups’ needs. Joanne kept in touch with us by sending occasional updates and pictures giving us peace of mind the entire trip. Thankful she was able to be flexible when we encountered travel related issues. I would definitely come back. Highly recommended!!”
“My family had an amazing experience with Ashley. She and her family provided exceptional service while taking care of our dog, during a long boarding. She kept us updated with pictures and messages, which gave us peace of mind knowing our dog was in good hands. When we returned, my dog was happy and well taken care of. I highly recommend Ashley. Thank you for taking such great care of our dog! We will definitely look for availability with you for any future boarding needs.”
“I had no worries leaving my pup with Sandy. Her service is like AirBNB for dogs! She does a good job keeping her guests separated for meals and if she has a guest that doesn’t get along with others. Great at communication.”
“Willow had a great time! Laura took great care of her and sent a photo every day. She got along well with Diesel, and she ate all her food, which means she was very comfortable at Laura’s house. Knowing she was doing well allowed us to enjoy our vacation more. We will definitely book Laura again!”
“My dog absolutely loves Kandice. She was amazing. She’s had my dog for boarding for 3 weeks and I’ve been able to pick my dog up and play with her and drop her back off after. Very accommodating and loves and cares for my dog like her own!”
“Amanda was great! She was extremely accommodating for us and our pup Ginger! Her son was also great when it came to giving Ginger extra love and attention! Definitely recommend Amanda for any of your boarding needs.”
“Nina has stayed with her twice now, and both experiences have been absolutely wonderful. She treats Nina with so much love, patience, and care that I always have complete peace of mind while I’m away. I always receive updates and photos, and it is clear that Nina is happy, safe, and loved. Seeing how comfortable and relaxed Nina is with her means everything to me. She has earned my complete trust, and she will always be my first choice whenever I need someone to care for Nina. I recommend her with all my heart. Thank you for taking such amazing care of my little girl!”
“Meagan and her family were very accommodating. They took good care of Maverick, who seemed to enjoy his time at Meagan's house. I would not hesitate to use her dogsitting services again.”
“Rebecca was wonderful with my dog Aspen. She was responsive and easy to communicate with, sent updates and photos, and took great care of my dog during her overnight stay. Thank you, Rebecca!”
“Kaitlyn was great! She was so caring and helpful in responding to my concerns and questions. Also so prompt in all my communications. It is a big plus to know that she is a vet tech and knows what to do! She keeps her home and pet areas so clean and I love all the puzzles she did with our dogs. She sent pictures with the dog’s activities from each day. I will definitely use Kaitlyn again! She is GREAT!!”
“Our pup Carson had a wonderful stay with Angela and her family! I received the cutest daily pictures of him and all the fun he was having with them. He was spoiled in the best ways and I am so thankful for all the love they provided during his stay, he was so comfortable and I can tell he had the best time with everyone and their pup Honey as well. 10/10 recommend!”

“Max and his girlfriend took great care of my pup!! She loved having other dogs to play with. Max has a wonderful personality and vibe. He is very compassionate and you can tell has a spot in his heart for dogs. My pup had a ton of time playing outside, took walks and had a park adventure. Max is accommodating and was happy go alloys my pup to relax on the furniture and most importantly sleep/snuggle up in bed at night. Would HIGHLY recommend anyone to Max gor dog sitting.”

“We couldn't be happier with Sarah! Her and her family were incredibly reliable, warm & welcoming, and went above and beyond to ensure Moose was comfortable and well-cared for. When our flight was changed last minute, Sarah was understanding and flexible. We appreciated the daily updates and so many amazing photos. It was so reassuring to see how happy Moose was during his stay. We highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter! We will absolutely be rebooking for our next vacation.”

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
