“They took care of my pup very well while we were out of town for a few days. They have such a cozy home that I know my furry friend absolutely loved! They took my dog on several walks and gave her such love and care. They were very pleasant people and I look forward to using them again soon”
“Charlie was very well cared for. We really appreciated Mara - she was responsive and kind. She also took care of a skin issue, kept Charlie in a cone and gave him medicine without issue!”
“We had an amazing experience with Carol! From the moment we met her and her husband, it was clear our dog was in great hands. They were attentive, reliable, and treated our pup like family. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Our dog was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for. You can tell Carol genuinely loves what she does. We couldn’t ask for a better sitter and will absolutely book with them again. Highly recommend!”
“Our two bulldogs had a wonderful stay with Matthew and his family. We received excellent communication, daily photos and knew are pups were being treated with attentive care including lots of walks and play time. We would definitely use Matthew again for pet-sitting services. Thank you so much!”
“HIGHLY recommend Jessica to take care of your pet! She provided a loving home and a large yard, clear communication and pictures throughout Tucker’s stay. Tucker was SPOILED (I’m surprised he wanted to come back home)! He has some food allergies, and she ensured that he didn’t get into anything that he wasn’t supposed to be eating. Jessica is a true pet lover, and we will definitely be using her again!”
“Our dog Gigi had a great time with Karlee and her kids. She was responsive to our texts and provided daily updates, which gave us peace of mind. We appreciated her care and attention! Thank you Karlee for taking good care of our Gigi♥️”

“Kelly and her family were wonderful with our puppy! He is very energetic and we are so grateful for their love and care! We will definitely be reaching out for further care in the future.”
“Albina is a great sitter. Very responsive. She has a fenced in backyard and our lab loves playing with her lab in the backyard. She will keep you updated on your pet with pictures and videos. Her kids loved on my dog.”
“Sheila was truly amazing taking care of Layla! From the very beginning, she was kind, attentive, and treated Layla like her own. She sent photos and updates that kept my mind at ease while I was on vacation, which meant so much to me. Layla seemed super happy being with her, and it was clear she was well cared for the entire time. Sheila is reliable, communicative, and truly goes above and beyond. I’m so grateful for her and would absolutely trust her again. Highly recommend!”
“SUSANNE IS THE BEST!! She kept our sweet, but incredibly stubborn shih tzu at her home and took the best care of him! She really wanted to get to know him and his million quirks, and she provided him with a peaceful, comfortable, and loving place to call home for a week. She kept us updated with allll the photos and happenings which helped ease our minds since we hadn't ever boarded him anywhere before (I wasn't sure he'd want to come home!). Stop your search and contact Susanne!”
“Heaven sent!! Christal (and her sweet kiddos) were a true blessing. My dog landed in the perfect home while we were vacationing. The communication was prompt, from the moment I requested her services (at 4AM), Christal answered and took in my puppy that same afternoon. He was well cared for, seemed happy with his daily walks and play time. I appreciate the photos I would receive throughout the day. I recommend Christal and will definitely reach out to her when I need a pet sitter. Christal: Thank you SO MUCH! Max sends his love to you and your family!”
“Sarah was wonderful! We had to add an extra day, and she was so sweet to accommodate our last-minute change in our travel plans. We loved receiving the pictures and videos and we never had to worry about them! We will most definitely be contacting her to keep Sam and Charlie in the near future!”
“Katherine was a great sitter for our Mr Wrigley dog. She was so kind to deal with. We loved that she kept us posted with plenty of pics throughout the stay. She has an amazing fenced yard. I can’t recommend her enough. Thank you, Katherine!”
“Lauren was truly exceptional! I was pretty nervous about leaving my 13-year-old dog with someone new while we were out of town, but she immediately put my mind at ease. She went above and beyond in every way and completely exceeded our expectations. Lauren provided frequent, thoughtful updates that reassured us our dog was happy and comfortable. It was clear she made a genuine effort to create a calm, loving, home-like environment for Leila, which meant so much to us. You can tell Lauren genuinely cares about the dogs she watches, and her attention to detail and compassion really stand out. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and kind sitter. We’re so grateful for her and will absolutely be booking with her again in the future!”
“As always - Luna absolutely loves going to Elizabeth’s. She has fun playing with new friends and we never stress about leaving her, which makes a huge difference when traveling!”
“Our dog had a wonderful stay with Laura! She took great care of him and made sure that he got his meds. She sent daily pictures and updates. Today at home he is resting from all the fun play with his new friends at Laura's house. We will book again with her!”

Matthew was a wonderful sitter for S’mores- she literally didn’t want to leave when we picked her up 😄 His kids were so kind and playful with her and she had a great stay! She is an older dog with a few specific needs, especially her hearing- and Matthew was really great about making sure she felt comfortable and safe. Many thanks!!!
Heather did a great job caring for both my boys. They seemed comfortable and at ease with her (which was a huge concern of mine) and she was well aware of the importance of daily medication (another comfort). She even picked up toys for them during their stay! Absolutely appreciate her generosity, flexibility, and care of them while I was out of town.
Brandi was amazing. We are so happy we found her. With the new move and last minute booking we wanted someone nearby. She was awesome with all the pictures and updates and so accommodating with last minute changes. Hope we can have lLegend visit in the future :)
I had a fantastic experience with Jeffrey. Communication was excellent from start to finish—he kept me updated with messages and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog had the best time playing with his dog, and it was clear he was loved and well cared for. When I picked him up, he was happy, healthy, and tired from all the fun. His home was also very clean and felt like a safe environment. I would definitely book again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!
