Marilyn was great with my two dogs. She sent plenty of pictures and updates throughout the day! We could tell that she really cared for our dogs and that they loved staying with her. Would definitely have my dogs stay here again!

So glad we found Dina. We have a senior fur baby that we were very concerned with leaving her with someone who may not understand the care for senior dogs. Dina was great! She was very accommodating and understanding of our needs. I would highly recommend her. We will be using her again.

Debra did a wonderful job taking care of Miss Molly. I got lots of picture updates while I was away. Molly had plenty of play time, cuddle time and home made treats that she loved! Molly had so much fun she didn't want to leave!!

Lesa worked wonders with our shy dog, bringing her out of her shell in a way we never thought possible. The patience and understanding she displayed was truly remarkable. Since then, our dog has been thriving—more confident, playful, and visibly happier. It's evident that Lesa’s genuine connection and efforts have had a lasting, positive impact. We are immensely grateful for the transformation and highly recommend her services to anyone seeking a caring and skilled pet sitter.

I have the most anxious pup so I’m extra grateful for Susan being so patient with him. I received updates and pictures and I felt comfortable with Wyatt being there. Super nice family.

Jade and her boyfriend were wonderful sitters for our dog, Butters, while we were in vacation. Butters had a wonderful time playing with their cats and came back happy, clean, and looking well rested from her own vacation.

I was worried about leaving Penny because she is very clingy, but she was fine! Vanessa took great care of her, and even allowed Penny to sleep with her. I’m not sure Penny wanted to come home. We will definitely leave Penny with Vanessa again.

Wendy and Austin watched our girl Rylee and I couldn’t have left her with anybody better. Their two golden girls are the absolute sweetest and helped Rylee feel right at home. Rylee has some anxiety and their little one Bella is almost like a support animal for her. She came back clean and felt very soft. They had sent us some pictures of her getting brushed with their special vacuum and I might just have to get one for ourselves. They provide updates daily with pictures which was very much appreciated. They are the sweetest and I high recommend leaving your fur babies with them for they will be well taken care of and spoiled rotten!

Betsy was truly incredible with our dog, Ozzy! It was his first stay away from home (COVID dog) and he had so much fun with Betsy and her furry crew. Her texts and pics put us all at ease and saved us from worry. I'd recommend Betsy wholeheartedly as a caregiver!! We so much appreciate the care and attention she gave to Ozzy.

Anna was so great with both of my dogs! She’s very accommodating and willing to take the time to meet and get a feel for the pet’s personality. It’s obvious that she is a true pet lover and goes above and beyond to ensure that your pet gets the attention it deserves. I couldn’t have been happier with my experience. Knowing your pets are well taken care of is truly priceless.

Kate took great care of our pups while we were away for two weeks. They had the best time playing in her yard with her dog, Sugar. Kate sent lots of photos and was very communicative throughout the stay. We’ll definitely book with Kate again the next time we travel!
