1. Clara A.

“Clara did an amazing job taking care of our babies. She was very professional at taking care of a sick dog. Even when our phones did not get service she did an awesome job taking care of Nanny and letting her leave early. She knew what our baby needed. I would definitely go back and refer her to anyone.”


2. Stacey J.
“We are so blessed to have Stacey as a dogsitter for our furry ball of fury Chopper. Not only did Stacey care for him in a respectful and playful manner, but also walked him, made sure he was fed and had water at all times, and even cleaned him when he got dirty from the outside. Dogs do love Stacey calm and firm demeanor and I would trust my little buddy with him any time”

“There is nothing like being away for an entire week and not have to worry! Third time is a charm. My pup was well loved and taken care of while away. What else can one ask for? Jenny and Jonas are the best caregivers !”


12. Alydia J.
“Alydia watched my dog for a 3-day weekend. She’s a sweet sitter. She treated my pup as if she were her own. My dog adores her, it just shows me she’s trustworthy.”


13. Amanda C.

“Amanda provided wonderful care for our senior dog. She was very proactive, learning about our dog’s personality, needs and quirks before meeting us. She was very accommodating, helping us with drop off and pick up so that we could better manage our flight schedules. She sent us pictures pretty much each day and it helped to know that our pet was being lovingly cared for. Our dog came back calm and well rested. We would definitely consider having Amanda take care of our dog again. Thanks Amanda!”

“So grateful that Kari was available at the last minute to come pick up my pup. She was good at communicating and she introduced my dog to her first chickens! ? Kari is easy going and she treated my pup just like fam, even letting her sleep in her son's bed at night! Thank you for helping us both during our time of need.”

“Kevin was exactly who I needed to take care of my dogs while I flew across the country for a few days. He was flexible and great with communication. He answered quickly, gave me lots of updates, and photos! He took great care of my dogs. Helped to not be worried when I was on vacation, as I missed them a lot. Would definitely book with him again. My dogs were worn out and happy when they came home. Thank you!!”
