“Shannon was fantastic! She communicated well with us while she watched our boy! She sent pictures to show he was doing fine! We felt at total ease leaving our “kid” in her care… she welcomed doing a meet and greet earlier in the week ( at our request) to introduce our dog to her to before dropping him off later that week. She was very accommodating with our drop off/pickup since we were flying somewhere. Will definitely use her again and recommend to her to other pet parents!!!”


“I recently hired a dog sitter named Amy to take care of my beloved furry friend while I was out of town for a week, and I can confidently say that she did an excellent job. From the moment I met Amy, I could tell that she was a true dog lover and had a natural affinity for animals. Throughout the week, Amy provided me with daily updates and photos of my dog, which really helped put my mind at ease and allowed me to enjoy my trip without worrying about my pet's wellbeing. She took my dog on long walks and even played with him in the backyard, which I know he absolutely loved. One thing that really impressed me about Amy was her attention to detail. She not only followed all of my instructions to the letter but also went above and beyond to ensure that my dog was comfortable and happy. For example, she noticed that my dog was a little anxious at bedtime and spent extra time snuggling with her until she fell asleep. Overall, I would highly recommend Amy as a dog sitter to anyone who is looking for a caring and responsible individual to take care of their pet. Her love for animals, attention to detail, and excellent communication skills make her a top-notch choice. I will definitely be using her services again in the future.”


“We left our dog with Kelly for a week & we could not have had a better experience! We were nervous about leaving her for the first time, but Kelly put our minds completely at ease and her home atmosphere was so laid back & friendly. She sent me photos every day and kept us updated on how Ramsey was adjusting. We will absolutely use Kelly again!”


“Very kind and understanding. She kept me updated with pictures. Took him to doggy park and made sure to take good care of him. Her family gave him lots of loving and made my dog feel welcomed and loved.”


“If I could give a million stars I would! Simply amazing. Communication, updates, huge fenced yard. I think Murphy was sad to leave 😂 I will be booking again. Starr and her family are the BEST!”


“Danielle went above and beyond with caring for our fur baby. She sent pics and videos and was fantastic at reassuring me our girl was doing just fine. Will definitely book with Danielle again.”


“Our dog Scooby has separation anxiety and usually get depressed when we’re away. Lucky for us, we found Christina and she made it so we didn’t have to worry about that. She sent us pictures and he looked so happy. When we brought him home, he was so worn out. It was exactly what he needed.”


“Nicole was amazing with my corgi who is a little temperamental. He was happy and well taken care of when I picked him up. She had good communication and sent photos while I was gone. I would highly recommend her!”


“I continue to use them for all my needs when traveling. Winston is kept occupied by the kids. Every time he comes home he’s tuckered out from all the activities. The kids keep him busy, and always snuggle for a nap time. Great service!”


“Matt was an exceptional sitter for my fur baby Willow. Prior to the boarding, he recommended a Meet & Greet. Willow immediately went into his home and began socializing with him. He provided daily updates and the pictures of her bonding with his family.. She waa at home sleeping over with his daughter and relaxing with him in a lounger. I would definitely board Willow again with Matt and his family.”



“Cassie & Victor were amazing in looking after Totoro, our Pug, for 2 weeks while we were out of the country. She sent daily updates with pictures & videos & even asked about his daily routine to minimize the stress of adjusting to a new environment during the first time boarding. They were accommodating when Totoro had a few accidents the first few days of adjusting and were comfortable w/giving eye drops as Totoro is vision impaired. We’ll most definitely be utilizing their pet boarding services again!”


“We’ve used Cynthia several times and have been very pleased. Winston goes on walks, lounges around the house or fenced in yard, enjoys the company of Cynthia’s pets and is well-taken care of. Cynthia keeps me updated with photos/texts. She’s easy to schedule with and obviously cares for animals. Highly recommend!”


“This was my first time needing a sitter and I was pretty nervous about it. I've never had to leave my sweet boy anywhere other than the vet for a day. Carol was very accommodating. She allowed me to see where he would be, answered any questions I had and sent pictures to me to assure me he was ok. I was grateful for that. That helped ease my mind. I would definitely use her again if it should become necessary again. She's awesome!!”


“We love Pierre!! This was our first time leaving our fur baby so understandably we were all nervous, but Pierre was great w him and sent us daily updates and videos. He took great care of our Henry and would recommend him to anyone looking to board their dog.”


“Amy is amazing! My dog absolutely loves her. I feel a sense of relief when my baby is left with her. Her house is clean and cozy and you can tell that she genuinely loves dogs. She even sent my dog home with a new toy. I will always book with her if she’s available. ❤️”
