“I can’t say enough good things about Jaclyn. She not only helped us out in a last minute emergency, but our dog was welcomed with open arms as if she was her own. She also sent sweet pictures and updates throughout the timeframe she watched her. 10000% I would recommend her to anyone. She really is the best!”


“Ann and her husband watched our dog Frankie while we were away in vacation. We were do grateful to have frequent updates and peace of mind knowing that our girl was well cared for while we were away.”

“Andrea was super communicative from the start and made us feel 100% comfortable leaving our pups! We got to meet up and make sure we were all comfortable, we got updates on the dogs throughout the week, and pick up afterwards was super easy! Extremely flexible and professional. We would feel very confident trusting Andrea with our dogs in the future!”

“We got daily updates, photos and videos of our gal while we were away. She was happy to see us but clean, happy, and tired which tells me she got enough expertise and love. We will definitely use her again! Thanks!”


“Jill and her family took food care of Stella She is always excited when we get to Jill’s home and loves playing with the children and is happy to stay. Jill always sends pictures of Stella so we know how she is doing. We always book our stay for Stella with Jill when we are traveling.”
“Bailey loved staying with Sarah and Jason! We loved receiving photos and videos of their adventures and updates throughout the day. Taking her on walks is such a bonus and so glad she could feel like part of their family for the weekend. Thank you so much!”

“Thanks so much for taking such great care of Coco; it was clear that Coco was well taken cared of. Also, thank for being easy to communicate with and for being flexible. I appreciated how clean your house is (no smells) as well. I would not hesitate to book with you again. Highly recommended!! 5++ stars! 😊”

“Our pup Polly loved staying with Janet. Janet was very patient, knowing she just turned one and still has that puppy energy! We really appreciate the daily updates and pictures. We highly recommend Janet!”

“Judy took care of my maltipoo for a week while I visited family. He did great, she did great and I could relax and enjoy my visit. Rowdy will likely be a repeat customer sometime in the future. Thanks Judy !”

“If Teddy could type, he’d be writing this himself. He told me all about how spoiled he was while I was away—daily walks, meals served on-time, and even playdates with their sweet golden retriever (apparently his new best friend). I also loved getting the daily photo updates, though Teddy insists they didn’t capture his best angles. He came home happy, tired, and maybe just a little disappointed to leave. I couldn’t have asked for better care for my pup—Teddy says 5 paws out of 5! 🐾”

“Melissa was awesome. She made me feel so comfortable leaving Jack with her. She is definitely a dog lover. I was a little worried my Jack may just want to stay at her house. I definitely will be booking all future appointments with Melissa for Jack. She sent updates, pictures and even gave me great information for a health issue Jack has been battling.”


“We appreciated texts about our dog and pics of him while we were away.. we liked the fenced back yard and clean home. Very nice couple who were attentive to Our dog. We were very happy!”
“Thank you again for taking such great care of my pups! We appreciate the attention and the care and the love the whole family provides to them! Looking forward to more opportunities to have you dog sit for us. Thanks!”


“Doyle picked up and dropped off Bella at no extra charge; Bella returned happy, healthy, and clean; and Doyle was an expert communicator during the whole experience. I will use Doyle again if I find the need. ”

“Michael did a great job taking care of blue and she seemed to have a good time with him and his dogs. However I do wish he sent me a few more pictures and videos when I’m away. But my dog was happy, safe and had fun.”

“Anja was fantastic with our yellow lab and took such good care of her while we were gone. She communicated daily and sent pictures and videos. She was very easy to communicate with and quick to respond. Absolutely recommend her as a dog sitter!”

“Mary was amazing with my pups! They had a great time! She sent updates throughout the week to let me know how they were doing. Would totally recommend her! I will definitely use her again!”

“Torey was an absolute lifesaver for us, picking up our dog from another sitter that wasn’t able to complete his stay. She’s always so great with Wrangler and so flexible and easy to communicate with! We will always recommend her if you need a sitter for your dog!”

“The absolute best! Danielle kept us updated everyday while we were away, sent us pictures, and was flexible when our flight arrived late at night. Safe to say, Danielle will be our go-to sitter from now on!”

Annur was absolutely wonderful! She took such loving care of our Daisy while we were on vacation and updated us twice daily. We would love for her to watch Daisy again the next time we need a sitter to board her. Daisy seemed right at home with her and her husband. Thank you, Annur!!
