We had a great experience with Kate! Our dog, Sampson, stayed in her home and was very well cared for. Communication was easy and consistent, and we felt completely comfortable knowing our pup was in good hands. Sampson is pretty easygoing, but it was clear he was treated with attention and kindness. We will definitely book with them again.

Addie kept my dogs over Christmas. She was so amazing and understanding when my flight was delayed and ultimately canceled on our return home. I highly recommend her and I hope she is available to care for my babies again in the future!

We are so grateful to have found Jill and her family to watch our Charlotte! What a lovely and comforting experience. We met Jill a month before Charlotte stayed with the family, and she was gracious and kind. Gave us a tour of her home and some time for Charlotte to meet her and their family dog Tucker ( a super sweetie). Jill was super flexible about pickup/dropoff, and responds quickly. We very much appreciated all of the pictures she sent to us of Charlotte during her stay (it looks like she rotated between everyone's laps - her favorite thing!). When I picked Charlotte up, she was calm and happy. She got along fine with Tucker which makes us happy for him too, and Jill's daughter's were super sweet with her. It's a comfort to know that Charlotte is being loved when she stays will Jill just as she is when home with us, and now we can go away with peace of mind. Definitely recommend Jill and her lovely family to care for your furry children.

Bruce is amazing. This is our second time having turbo stay over. He sent us pictures and updates multiple times throughout the day. When our trip got extended it was no problem for turbo to stay an extra night. We feel the most comfortable when Bruce watches our pup than anyone else around. We can’t say enough positive things about Bruce and the care he gave turbo. We know in the future if we are going away we will only book with Bruce. Thank you again!

Yajaira was amazing! I was so nervous about using the app let alone leaving my dog with someone other than family. This was my first time and everything went perfect. I did a meet and greet prior to the stay where I met with Yajaira and her small dog to see how the vibe was with everyone. She was sweet and her and my dog got along well. She sent daily pictures and updates which I was thankful for. She cared for my dog like family. I’m so happy I found someone close to home that I can trust. Thank you so much again.

We just got our puppy about a month ago and was very worried about what we do with him for our already planned trip! Jaylese was very responsive. We booked a meet and greet and I was already so comfortable leaving my pup with her! We received daily pictures and updates!! I am soooo happy we went with Jaylese! She will be used for our pup in the future!!! Thank you for taking great care of our pup ❤️

From the first contact, I loved James' response. He first asked about meeting Neo to see if he would be a good match for his family, which gave me peace. He kept in contact by sending us pics and updates during our time away. No regrets! 🙏🏻

Danielle and her husband were absolutely amazing while watching our little guy (Jaxson) for a quick getaway this week. We were given constant updates/pictures, and he clearly made himself right at home and was as comfortable as can be. Communication was prompt from the beginning and we were truly at ease while we were away that he was receiving more than adequate care. Jax became quick friends with their pets, and was moping around when we got home because he clearly misses them! Could not recommend enough!

Jessica and Ian are great dog people! Their welcoming atmosphere, frequent updates, and genuine affection for animals gives me peace of mind when I board my dog with them. They've got a safe & puppy-proof environment and my puppy is always in a good mood after staying with them. We are repeat customers and plan to keep it that way for a long time :)

Ollie is a rescue who came to us very frightened and untrusting about a year ago. So I was so nervous to have to leave him with a sitter. Chelsea provided to most welcoming a loving environment for Ollie. He settled right in and I could tell by all of the pics Chelsea sent that he was 100% in good hands and comfortable. Thank you so much Chelsea. We will definitely being coming back with Ollie!!
