5. Jocelynn A.
“Jocelynn is amazing! I honestly don’t trust anyone with my pups. She is truly gifted when it comes to caring for animals and I am thankful to have found someone who is as knowledgeable, professional, and reliable as she has been with my dogs. I know I can count on her to care for them as I would in my own home. Her communication is top notch and her facilities are superb.”
6. Allyson H.
“Allyson was a great sitter for our dogs Stevie and Hildy for an entire week stay. We contacted her last minute right before a holiday week and she willingly booked us and set up a quick meet and greet beforehand. Our dogs are good and tired which means they had a fun week! Allyson was great at communicating - sending daily updates and photos. Our dogs got a long great with her sweet dog and played together in her yard. She was also so graciously flexible as we had some back and forth changes in plans and pick up times after traveling. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend to others.”
7. Laurel J.
“Our pup came back happy and tired, and was excited when we pulled up to their house after the meet and greet. We appreciated all the photos and updates during our 10 day trip. And especially Rufus for being so patient with our pup who's used to being an only dog.”
8. Jordan R.
“Jordan was such a great sitter to our boy, Tucker. She provided regular updates and was easy to communicate with and coordinate drop off / pick up. For the first night of Tucker’s stay, Jordan noticed he wasn’t eating his food. She communicated this concern to me and offered to try some wet food mixed in which did the trick! I appreciate her attention to Tucker. I honestly think Tucker was a little sad to come back home 🤣🐾 Thank you, Jordan for your great care!”
9. Matthew K.
“Thanks Matthew for taking care of Lilbit while I recovered from surgery. Matthew sent photos and Lilbit seemed very comfortable at Matthew’s.”
10. Trevor & Karen H.
“Trevor and Karen came through for us when our dog sitter fell through close to our trip date. They provided our Cavalier a sweet space to stay with plenty of attention and kept us in the loop with photos and updates. We really appreciated all of the effort and communication!”
11. Lenore K.
“Lenore and Rook hosted Roscoe while I was away for new years. She provided lots of photos and updates to let me know that he was doing well and he seemed to be very happy when I picked him up. I would have Lenore watch Roscoe again in a heartbeat!”
12. Carol S.
“We are so happy to have found you Carol to take care of our baby. Roger had a great time with you and Keanu. Thank you for taking great care of Roger. And loved the pictures you sent out daily. Truly appreciated it. Will call on you soon to watch Roger again. Thank you so much.”
13. Brooklyn A.
“Brooklyn went above and beyond to accommodate Waffles and his car anxiety. He had a wonderful time with her and her pups (especially Tuna). I would not hesitate to leave Waffles with her again, or to recommend her to other pet parents.”
14. Erin W.
“Erin is a fantastic sitter for Oliver! He came home soooo happy and I got such great photos from her while I was gone. Oliver surely can’t wait to hang out with Erin and her family again soon!”
15. Dolly L.
“My honey and I have been using Ms. Dollys services to watch our two naughty 75 pound plus babies for a few months now. I think we have boarded our dogs a total 4 times with her. She’s always super accommodating and willing for emergency stay overs if your 4 hour drive from Oregon turns into 8 hours (life saver). Ms. Dolly handles my helicopter dog mom ways and assures me “ I got this” ( she really does) Our babies LOVE Ms. Dolly and even know her by name. They get some serious zooms when we leash up by the door and mention dolly town. Upon first arriving a few months ago I was so happy to see she has a full on kennel set up, rubber washable mats, large and heated areas to run and play on icky days. Toys, leashes you name it. We even forgot our food one time, no worries dolly had a back up that matched the very specific sweet potato and salmon diet we had going. It’s like having a family member watch your dogs but the family member is also super professional and also operates a full puppy bizniz. Upon arrival you will be asked to fill out a secondary form, shots, vet, food routine, emergency contact ect. Ms. dolly is seriously a pro. Drop off is always super emotional for us but Ms. Dolly always sends pics and videos. It seems like she hangs out with our dogs all day by how much play time they actually get. They even did a bonfire and hung out with our pups the way we would do in our backyard. Your dogs are family and it shows. Ms. Dolly has a full backyard where your dogs can run and play and party all night if they wanted. This is a serious plus for our very energetic pitbull and spaz German Sheppard. I would never choose another boarder. Thank you Ms. Dolly, we love you! - Brandon, Katy, Ghost and Ranger.”
16. Hanna D.
“Hanna made it very easy for me to leave my dog for a week. We had a meet and greet right away and I felt sure my dog would be happy there. Hanna sent photos of my dog hiking, playing, sleeping on the couch. Living the life! I would for sure leave my dog with Hanna again.”
17. Sophia C.
“Sophia was wonderful and exactly the kind of person we were looking for to watch after our little bug for the first time. I could tell right away that she holds a lot of care and respect for animals, and I think Nori was even a little unsure about saying goodbye. She even kindly sent Nori home with a toy that she fell in love with! She gave us plenty of photos and updates, and was incredibly flexible with our schedule and Nori’s need. I can’t wait for Nori to visit Sofia and her three pups again, and highly recommend if you’re looking for a sitter you can trust! ❤️”
18. Leslie F.
“Scout loves her time at Leslie's tiny dog ranch. It's like her summer camp - there's new friends and good food and lots of nature to explore.”
19. Valerie D.
“Valerie was an excellent dog sitter for our 9-year-old large dog, Tucker. From the start, the process was seamless—both drop-off and pick-up were easy and stress-free. Valerie lives in a beautiful area, which gave us peace of mind knowing Tucker had a nice environment to stay in. With eight years of experience, Valerie clearly knows how to care for dogs. Tucker was happy and well-cared for when we picked him up, and it was clear he had been in good hands. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely reach out to her again in the future! Highly recommend Valerie to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”
20. Melissa A.
“Melissa and her family took fantastic care of Scout! Scouts stay was a last minute booking and Melissa was so easy to communicate with, and flexible! They have a large fenced yard which I’m sure Scout loves to hang out in! He came back healthy and happy!”
