“Ivy had a great time with James and I will definitely be using them again. Typically when meeting someone new, Ivy is timid, but with James they were fast friends and any anxiety I had about leaving her with someone new was gone. Highly recommend!”



“Nancy and Jay are the best dog sitters we have ever had! Not only was our dog in heaven running around their property and being in their extra attentive care, they went out of their way to be accomadating to our crazy travel schedule. Can't recommend them enough!”


“Rosie and James communicate throughout the stay with pictures of our pet, and they are always ready when I pick up and drop off, which is nice. Would definitely recommend and use them again!”


“Cara is easy to communicate with. She respected our dog’s need to be around people and put him on a long line while she worked outside. She is in a convenient location in Canton. She clearly loves animals and takes care of lots of dogs and cats.”


“Our dog was well taken care of. I think he enjoyed his mini vacation playing with the other dogs and her children. I would highly recommend her services.”


“Emily and her family were great to work with! Their location was extremely convenient and they were very accommodating. Our puppy had a blast and was well cared for!”


“Thank you Katie and Jeremy for taking great care of Aspen. Beautiful home, people and they have a great dog too! I highly recommend this family if you need a safe, caring spot for your pooch.”


“We are so pleased to have found Monica and Steve. My dog had a great time, they kept in touch during Rory's stay, and I felt like she was very comfortable and well-cared for. Thank you!”


“Lisa and Joe cared for our two family dogs very well. We didn’t worry a bit that they had lots of love and care. We enjoyed the pictures and updates Lisa sent.”


“Maria is a natural with animals. Her calm demeanor puts you and your pets at ease. My dog doesn't take to strangers well but he felt right at home with her.”


“My little morkie had another wonderful stay with Maria and Jose! It is so comforting to go on a trip and not worry about my pup. They are excellent at communicating daily and treat her as one of the family. I highly recommend!!”


“Kristel is the best! 10/10 would recommend her to anyone who needs a puppy sitter. She sent plenty of photo updates and made our pup so comfortable at her place. I could tell she genuinely cared about juniper and it made me feel at ease leaving my puppy with her. I would definitely book again!! Thanks again Kristel! You are the best!!”


“Great response time. Elijah provided daily pictures. Pups returned home happy! Will definitely use again and would highly recommend.”


“Bradly was great with our dog and flexible with our schedule. We look forward to bringing her back for another stay in the future. I highly recommend Bradly!”


“Lacie is 5 stars as well as A++!!!! She takes remarkable care of our special needs Havanese , Emma. I can’t recommend her enough!! We love Lacie and would trust her with anything we own. Thank you Lacie.”



“Melissa has great communication with me regarding my baby. There was an incident where my dog got stung by a bee while playing and Melissa informed me immediately and kept me updated on what was going on. (Aurora ended up being perfectly fine). I love that there was other dogs present so she got to have much play time during her vacation ☺️. Ms. roar was so tired once she was in the car, she wasn't even interested in having the windows down and basically went straight to sleep!!! Im glad she had a great time ❤️ definitely would recommend Melissa for anyone who is needing a sitter/doggy daycare☺️”


“From the meeting Megan & Nicole to the photos and video of Prince to update us, we were confident that Prince was looked after well. Prince had fun with the other dogs and came home happy and healthy. It was a great experience for all of us.”


“By the best dog sitter in the area! Will definitely use her again! I 100% felt my dogs were in caring hands while out of town. Carrie and her family provided a safe and happy environment for my 2 pups! Ten stars!!!”


“Second adventure for Charlotte at their place and second great experience! I think Charlie would rather be here than home since she gets to romp around with so many friends and other happy doggos. If we go out of town, or if we just want to drop for doggy daycare, this is the place we will always check first!”


“Rick took great care of our 14yo dachshund. As a rescue, Ozzie can sometimes need extra TLC, which he absolutely received! We already have our next dogsitting scheduled.”
