“Kristin took awesome care of our kitties Lumi and Lockon. She was great with Lockon’s medicine. Her family accepted the cats and was very welcoming. Kristin is amazing and she provided consistent updates sending videos and pictures. I would definitely recommend her and go back to her 😊”
2. Luis C.
“Luis took great care of my dog, Ziggy. He sent updates and made sure he felt comfortable. His communication was always timely. I’m very appreciative and would recommend him as a dog-sitter to anyone!”
3. Patrick & Susan D.
“Chance loved his visit with Pat and Susan! I know he is in good hands, gets attention and lots of fresh air! Thank you so much for the pick up/drop off service to my elderly mom's house!”
4. Kristin S.
“Kristin instantly gave us peace of mind when we had to find someone last minute to watch our dog. She and her dog, Kaia, were so sweet and just what Luna needed! We received several photos throughout her stay and in every photo Luna was clearly having an amazing time! She didn’t want to get in the car to leave when we came to pick her up. We would absolutely seek out Kristin in the future and highly recommend her!”
5. Allison Nicole M.
“I would highly recommend Allison to take care of your dogs! She is so caring and definitely communicates with you to let you know what's going on! Her dog, Mollie is so sweet too! She has 2 fenced in areas- a front yard and back yard with a pool! There is definitely plenty of places for your dogs to roam and play outside. She also has a nice area inside for them to play and where she gives tons of cuddles! She honors whatever your routine is, as I wanted my dog to sleep in her soft crate and be fed twice a day with pottie breaks every 4hrs. She is very reliable, dependable, efficient and a total sweetheart! She knows how to slowly introduce dogs and makes sure everyone is safe and comfortable besides having fun! I was so calm knowing that my Lola was in good hands and given so much attention by her, her family, and the other dogs! A definite 5 star rating in my book!”
6. Cassi W.
“Cassi is simply the best!!! She has become my puppy's 2nd mom when I am away. I could not be happier with how much she loves caring for my Remi. She is on top of it all from the wonderful atmosphere she provides the animals she cares for to the awesome pictures and updates she provides. I have busy weekends with a teenager that is active in everything on the weekends and having Cassi allows my boy to get the attention and care he deserves instead of being home all day alone. Cassi has truly become a gift to me and my puppy. We will be customers of Cassi's as long as she will have us. I simply cannot recommend her enough. She truly loves what she does! Thankful for you Cassi!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for our Arthur! From the start, Amy was attentive, responsible, and truly cared for our boy like her own. Arthur is adventurous and always getting into something, but she handled everything with ease and kept us updated with pictures and messages. It was clear Arthur felt comfortable and happy in her care. Highly recommend! Thank you Amy, and Mayzie!!”

18. AUTUMN H.
About: I love to take care of pets! I am home working in our yard, garden, with our chickens, cooking, generally creating a millennial grandma cozy cottage. I always say there are a few things that make a house a home - animals, plants, and good kitchen smells. We have a dog and a couple cats running around, and, much like our kids enjoy having all the friends come to visit us so that our house is bustling with love! I have to say that I do not allow pets on furniture but worry not; all furry visitors have lots of soft spaces to snuggle, a large fenced-in yard to run about (maybe dig a hole to relax in the the sunshine?), love, attention, treats galore. I am not afraid of larger animals, and I can keep those separate that are either feeling feisty around new friends or shy until acclimation in our fenced patio within the yard. I keep a good eye on everyone, I'm patient with accidents, and its no sweat to accommodate special needs. Please let us enjoy hosting your family at ours, making our house a home. Other than taking my children to and from school, I am home. Additionally, my partner and children are six more eyes, hugging arms & throwing balls. I accommodate my clients' requests and always aim to over-deliver. I am happy to send photos and videos throughout our play date, and respond to questions in a very timely manner.
19. Amanda S.
“Amanda is very nice, great with communication and I absolutely loved booking with her. My dog had the best time, I will definitely be booking again!”
20. James & Mallory N.
“I am very happy to have found Mallory and James! I have a 3.5 year old boxer bulldog mix who has a ton of energy, and this is my first time leaving her overnight (other than at my parents). I had a family wedding across the country to attend to, so I did a test run the week before for my dog, Mocha. She did great at the test run, and for the wedding I left her with Mallory and James for 5 nights. They sent pictures and kept me updated that Mocha was safe and having fun. When we picked up mocha, she was sad to leave her friends and wiped out when we got home from all of the playing! I will definitely leave her with Mallory and James again, thanks so much for taking such good care of my baby!”
