“Scott and family again were fantastic to our family. Our Penny was treated like part of the family. Will definitely book with them again when we need to get out of WI. Thank you. !!”
“I had the pleasure of having Nikki and her lovely family watch our dog, Kota, who has a history of seizures and requires a little extra care. She did a truly wonderful job. Throughout Kota’s stay, she sent frequent pictures and updates, which helped ease our minds and kept us informed. Her attentiveness, kindness, and clear communication were greatly appreciated. Kota was in excellent hands, and it was clear she treated her like one of her own. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for dependable, compassionate care for their pet—especially if they have special medical needs.”
“Benny has been at Kathy's before for daycare. This was his first overnight stay. Kathy is so good about keeping me updated with pictures and treats Benny like he is one of her own. After some not so good experiences at other facilities I'm thrilled that Benny feels so comfortable at Kathy's and loves to play with her little doggo.”
“Thank you Katy, DJ and girls for caring for Doc this past weekend. Thank you for the pictures and updates through the weekend. The long walks and cuddles are fantastic.”
“My dog was apparently incredibly bad with Lauren (NOT HER WORDS. She was very sweet about telling me about his behaviors). Not because of her, but because of it being his first time being away from us and not knowing what to expect. She was patient and communicative with us. She sent a ton of pictures and videos and talked through any problems that's arose. I would definitely work with Lauren in the future.”
“Our older dog had more fun staying with Maria and Nayibe than he has in a long time! They were wonderful about making sure he got his medication and lots of love. We will definitely bring him back.”
“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!”
“Savanah did a great job watching my dog over a weekend. Her dogs were extremely friendly with mine and my dog had a wonderful time. Would definitely recommend booking with Savanah.”
“Tucker was so welcomed and cared for by this lovely family! I received many updates with photos and it was clear my older dog was so comfortable and happy taking walks with them and cozying up in their living room. Instructions were followed exactly regarding feeding and sleeping arrangements. It was apparent that these dog-loving caregivers wanted the best for my pet. A big thank you to them and I would definitely book them again!”
“We wanted a quick Labor Day getaway. George came to live with us only 3 weeks before and I had never gotten a sitter for any of my dogs before. I was a little nervous but Angie was great! From meeting George, sharing her process and communicating while we were away with messages and pictures. I was relieved George was getting the personalized attention he needed. Thanks Angie!”
“Gracie had an amazing stay with Joanne (& her family!) I enjoyed the communications and pictures during Gracie’s time in their home. Gracie enjoyed playtime with the kids and with the resident dog, Olivia. She had her kennel available, but enjoyed cuddles with their teenage son and quickly made herself a part of the family. I will certainly consider booking for future stays, and recommend Joanne to others!”
“Walker's stay was even more amazing than the last one. He played with lots of new buddies and charmed "grandma". They were so kind to keep in an extra day and take him with them to their 4th of July celebration. We received tons of pics that made our our time away from him relaxing. It was comforting to see him get a vacation too. We are forever grateful!”
“We have a very active puppy (Loki) and wanted to bring him to the beach with us. Kim was very loving toward our dog and we were able to pick him up and take him to the beach and drop him off after so we could go back to our hotel. I loved that Loki was always happy to see Kim when we dropped him off. That meant a lot to me. We will use Kim again. Loki can’t wait to come back and play with her own wonderful pack.”
“She was very very sweet. Took great care of my pup Ranger while my boyfriend and I went on our trip. she sent pictures, videos, updates. I would book with her again in the future.”
“Sent pictures everyday and feedback of how the dogs were doing. Many walks were had, and even a quick bath before we picked them up. The dogs are exhausted today so I know they had a fabulous time! Very much recommend Sommer and her family for pet sitting.”
“Matt was awesome with the girls. It was their first time staying somewhere other than home. They did great. Kept me informed throughout the whole stay and sent lots of pics updating me on their stay. He was also very flexible with our needs and followed every single detail for the girls care. Will be using Matt again and highly recommend him to others as well”
“Great experience working with Yshonda. It seems like my dog Scout really enjoyed staying with her. She did a very good job of keeping me updated while I was away on vacation, providing videos of scout interacting with the other dogs, and she was also very flexible with pick up and drop off. I would highly recommend her services!”

Scott Ashley and their boys are a Godsend for me. Dixie is safe and I am able to relax and enjoy my vacation time. They treat her so well and she is a senior gal who is blind and almost deaf. I get photos throughout my trip and I really enjoy that. I would not leave Dixie with anyone else.
Mozzie had an exceptional time with Chrissy and family. He got all his favorites - fetching the tennis ball, lots of pets and attention, downtime when he needed it, and even some swimming. He came back happy - which makes us happy. we appreciated the updates and photos of Mozzie and the flexibility and communication of Chrissy. Do not hesitate to book with her!
