1. Allison Nicole M.
“Monty had a great time at Allison’s. He wasn’t adventurous enough to try the pool, but it’s nice that it was an option! She sent regular photos and updates which were appreciated. We’ll definitely book again!”




2. Steve R.


“Durango had such a great time with Steve and his family while we were gone. It was so great to get pictures throughout the weekend of how much fun he was having too. Much easier going out of town when you know someone is taking good care of your fur babies! Thanks again!”


3. Alyssa M.

“Jake had fun! He came home to us exhausted which is good. Alyssa would send us photo updates and we had no issues with her, would recommend! 😁”


4. Liz W.

“Liz was great with our dog Arabelle! Arabelle can be shy, but Liz was very patient with her and she warmed up quick. She sent us lots of photos of Arabelle enjoying the sun and hanging out in her yard, and we knew she was in good hands. She also went out of her way to bring Arabelle to our wedding photos! We don't live in the area, but if we are ever back we will definitely book Liz again.”


5. Shanagay C.

“Biscuit thoroughly enjoyed his visit with Shanagay. She sent many pictures, videos, and updates to let us see how much fun he was having. Biscuit romped and played with Shanagay's little dog Cash and the pics were adorable! We'll definitely call on Shanagay's dog sitting services for Biscuit again and again! Thanks so much for doing such a great job.”


6. Diane & Vincent S.


“Diane is the best. She is a great communicator and I felt completely comfortable leaving my 1.5 yr old Border Terrier (aka escape artist) with her. I hope to return!”


7. Kristin S.


“I am so grateful we found Kristin :) Second visit for our golden, Sunny. While we were away Kristin sent pictures so we could see Sunny was so happy -- hiking, playing, and just snuggling...that just put us so much at ease. Sunny also comes home cleaner than when we left her which is no easy task! :) I think we have to leave Sunny with Kristin and Kaia more often because she clearly misses them when she comes home! Thank you for everything, Kristin (and Kaia!)”


8. Brittany R.

“Luna had such a wonderful time while staying with Brittany. Im positive she’s going to miss her new fur friends so much. Thank you Brittany for taking such good care of our girl and being so communicative and flexible.”


9. Austyn D.

“Henry came home very happy. He loves playing with Austyn. She shared pictures with us so we could see him while we were gone!!”


10. Russ & Janet W.

“I'm grateful for Russ and Janet's flexibility. Due to personal dynamics I need to change some pickup dates around and they were most accomodating.”


11. Gillian M.

“Gillian was great with my crazy little terrier. She's definitely very dog savvy with a house + yard set up well for overnight stays. Her dog Bowie is sweet and well trained as well.”


12. Heather & Norman R.

“We boarded our dog, Guinness, with Heather and Norman for two days, and they were absolutely wonderful! Heather and Norman were sweet and took excellent care of Guinness. They took him for walks and even sent us photos. It was clear that Guinness and their dog, Zeus, got along so well and had a great time playing together. Now that he's home, Guinness seems sad and misses Zeus. We will definitely use Heather and Norman's services again. Highly recommended!”


13. Amy H.

“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!!”




14. Nancy L.

“Nancy is phenomenal and my baby absolutely loved her. This is the first time I went away and wasn't consistently worried because I knew he was being cared for and loved the same way he would be at home.”


15. MJ M.

“Blue was very happy at MJ's. MJ got back to us when no one else could during the beginning of a holiday weekend. She and her family were very accommodating and my pup felt at home there. Super happy with a great first visit ... I would not hesitate at all to bring him back. Plus her pups are friendly and Blue had a great time with them, including playing with the fam in the yard. He's out cold right now, the sign of a fun and active day.”


16. Ciara A.

“Ciara did an excellent job watching Quincy over a long weekend! She provided plenty of updates to show that he was comfortable and having a good time. I would definitely book a stay with Ciara again. Thanks!”


17. Kacey B.

“Kacey is a responsible, caring, and dog-loving girl who would be perfect for this sort of job. She’s always on time and her shear love for dogs is enough to know that she’d excel with Rover. She would have a blast while giving the dogs the exercise they want and need. She spends a lot of time with my German Shepherd and loves to take him for walks on the road. This is a perfect fit.”


18. Tyler S.

“We were so nervous to leave our new puppy for the first time with someone, but Tyler exceeded all expectations! We got lots of updates, pictures, and Tyler was communicative about everything. I’m so grateful we booked with him and we will be doing so in the future for any travel we have. If you need a dog sitter, Tyler is the way to go!”


19. Rachel M.

“It was a great comfort to know that my golden retriever Juno was taken care well .Rachel and her family was amazing , she took a good care of Juno , gave us daily text updates and shared pictures . We had best experience and highly recommend . Thank you Rachel”


20. Katie L.
