We love Shelly and Avery! They treat our dogs like family, are so flexible, and go over and beyond to keep us updated on the dogs when we are out of town. I highly recommend Dhelly and Avery!

To whom it may concern. I have known Cory all of his life and he is an extremely caring and responsible person that I would trust with my life and his commitment to his and others and their animals. They are well fed and very well maintained with all their wants and needs met with love and compassion. I would trust him to care for my entire family especially my babies and their care!

Kassy did a great job with my Labrador. My furry friend has a fenced yard and is rarely on a leash. Kassy took the time to get her used to her harness before walking her.

Andrea has been amazing, our dogs can be a lot and be very hyper. She plays fetch, gives them water and feeds them breakfast. She even takes the time to clean up if our dogs manage to escape out of the kennel and make a mess ( they counter surf). She Leaves a report card every time and sends lots of pics with just the hour she’s at our house. I would recommended Andrea 10/10!

Lisa was fantastic with our kitties! We came home to two very happy and well-cared cats. Prior to booking, Lisa met us and our cats at our apartment and was very attentive to us describe our cats routines and behaviors. During the booking Lisa provided detailed updates and pictures from her drop-ins to leave our minds at ease while we were gone for the holidays. We highly recommend her for any of your cat-sitting needs and will definitely be using Lisa again for future drop-in needs for our cats!

Chelsea was amazing with my 60lb, 10 year old, Australian shepherd Bane. She truely loves animals and has a huge heart. She came to my house for 2 weeks and walked him, played with him, gave him loves and even watered my plant. She also made sure to keep me updated on his arthritic back legs. I will definitely be using Chelsea again! Such a relief knowing there is someone there to love and take care of my puppy when when I cant! ❤️ Thank you so much Chelsea!!!

For Christina B. Christina grew up with dogs and a variety of other animals and participated in their care at an early age. She is one that believes that an animal in a home is more than a pet but a member of the family and that is exactly how she treated her own dog, Hector, he was family. She easily provides love, excellent care and protection for her family. A tender and empathetic soul gives Christina an advantage of making a strong connection with family dogs. Regular walks and playtime are a habit making her an exceptional and responsible partner for a dog's enrichment. She's a smart, talented, well versed, beautiful young woman with a nurturing nature wanting to help in a way that benefits the health and happiness of your family member. Shelley A.

Troy has been nothing but amazing, not only with our dog but with everything he does! Our pup is a bit people selective and moose was comfortable in no time due to Troy being patient and knowledgeable about how to handle a more reactive dog. My husband and I would 100% recommend him to take care of your furry friend too! He is always on time and makes sure he leaves the house cleaner then when he got there!
