“James did an awesome job with our Pisgah! James gave our pup so much exercise and attention that she was the happiest and most tranquil I’ve ever seen her after we’ve left her with a sitter. Highly recommend, will book again!”


2. Amanda W.

“Amanda was a wonderful sitter for our doodle Henry. He loved having her and she really took great care of him. He had walks and playtime and she sent frequent pictures showing us how much fun Henry was having. I was completely at ease knowing she was at our house with him. She also left the house impeccable. We highly recommend her!!!”

“One of our dogs is getting older, and can be a bit of a stress case with being left places when we are out of town. So, we decided to call LaTrice and have her come stay at our house. When we got home, the dogs were relaxed and happy. We'll definitely book LaTrice again. Thank you LaTrice!!”

We would absolutely recommend Dakota, and would be happy to have Dakota watch We anytime!”

12. Dawn "Star" C.

“Dawn Star took wonderful care of my two dogs while my family and I were out of town for a long weekend. I came back home to happy dogs and a well cared for home. This was my first experience with a house sitter and found my dogs to be much more relaxed at the end of the stay compared to when they board at a facility. One of my dogs is very high energy, and the other is more reserved. Dawn Star handled their particular dynamics without issues. She also paid attention to my care/ instruction sheet and followed it to a T. I’m very happy with this experience and would hire Dawn Star again.”


13. Sloan K.

“Sloan was the BEST sitter for our dog, Nyla. We were sent lots of pictures and updates. She also took the time to give her multiple walks and play with her outside. Our pup was so well taken care of and happy throughout Sloan’s stay. We definitely will be asking her to watch our dog again!”


14. Rachael K.

“Rachel did a wonderful job caring for our pets. We have two large dogs and four cats. She came to meet them before her stay began. She is a warm caring person who clearly connects to the pets she is caring for. She did a great job keeping us informed about their activities. We were very pleased and highly recommend her.”


15. Kala C.
“She’s an excellent pet owner and dog lover. Her heart melts when she’s around dogs which makes for a caring, dependable and loving person. On top of that, she’s one of the hardest working people. You will not find a better person to care for your animals or anything really. Kala is great.”
