“I am so thankful for Amanda and her husband! We needed a sitter very last minute and she was very accommodating. My dogs are naturally nervous but seemed to have a great time with her. I would definitely book with her again if/when I return to the area. Great experience!”



“Wonderful as always!! Bueller loves visiting Karen and it makes our time away so much easier knowing he is in good hands! Thanks for loving on our boy ☺️”


“Could not rave about Elizabeth more!! She was amazing and my dog loved her!! I’m nervous leaving my dog anywhere, but she really put my mind at ease and was so understanding. Will definitely be booking with her in the future!! Couldn’t ask for anyone better!”



“Ashleigh did a wonderful job! We got pictures constantly and she did her best to keep our dogs routine the same as if she were at home. Absolutely will use her again!!”


“Alyissia was great! Winry was happy and tired when I picked her up which is great for us after a busy weekend away! We plan to use them again in the future 🥰 Thank you!”


“Michelle and Justin were wonderful! They took great care of Charlie Brown and sent photos and updates about how he was doing. It gave me a big peace of mind leaving Charlie with a family who will care well for him when we were out of town. We will definitely reach out in the future when we need someone to watch our Charlie!”


“Jaz B accommodated our last minute need for a sitter and the experience was first class! We are truly grateful for her and her family. We will definitely be using her services again!”


“We felt very comfortable our pup was getting the best care while staying with Ellen. She had great communication throughout the process and we so appreciated the pic/video updates she shared with us!”



“Hillary is the very best. I hired her to take my puppy to the dog park three days a week for two weeks while my husband and I were out-of-town. My mom was staying with my daughter and my dogs but was unwilling to go to the dog park. Oreo had a great time and Hillary sent pictures after every visit. She is so good with the dogs she cares for and makes sure that the doggy parents are kept up-to-date and informed about their fur babies. Wouldn't hesitate to use her again for dog park visits or for boarding should we need her services. I knew my pup was in very capable hands. Thanks Hillary!!”


“Naaya had a wonderful time with Joe and I'm very happy about having had Naaya with him. He's kind and very responsive and made sure Naaya was well taken care of and kept us posted via regular texts. Would highly recommend Joe.”


“Emily was incredible. I left the country for a week without my doggo for the first time, and Emily made it so easy for me with all the videos and pictures. She took extremely good care of him, and I could tell he felt right at home. I would use and recommend her services a million times over!”



“Tamisha was really great at updating me with pictures and on Darla’s status. She even let me know that Darla got a small cut on her head, which is totally expected because Darla bulls her way through things, but comforting to know tamisha was upfront with everything. I really appreciated her looking after Darla and would definitely look to her for help with Darla again in the future.”



“I had some hesitation about leaving Bandit with someone else, since he can have some severe separation anxiety. I used Laura's boarding service June 10th-11th. It worked out great & I was relieved he got along w/ Laura's family (especially her children) & their dog Sniffy. It so hard to find someone you can trust to watch your dog these days. I am so glad we found Laura who can relate to a lot of Bandit's problems & Sniffy got along w/ Bandit too. Since Bandit did so well with Laura I will be using her service again. Thank you Laura for being so understanding with Bandit.”


“I can’t recommend Kyra enough as a dog sitter! She was absolutely incredible—professional, friendly, and kind. She took amazing care of my dogs and made the whole experience stress-free. Kyra was also extremely communicative, checking in with me daily and providing updates. Her attention to detail and genuine care for my pet made a huge difference. I’ll definitely be booking her again!”


“Hallie was awesome with our dog for a long weekend trip. She has a nice clean home with a fenced in yard. We felt really comfortable the whole time and did not worry about Foss at all. He did great with her pups and it’s obvious she cares so much about our dog’s well-being which is exactly what we want when leaving our dog with someone. She was quick to respond to all of our messages, too.”


“Joy filled in when our regular sitter was on vacation and I can’t recommend her enough. We got daily updates (at minimum) and lots of pictures during our dogs’ week-long stay. Communication was great and the dogs were so loved on! She was very accommodating and has a perfect space for pup sitting. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again and hope we have another chance!”
