Ben was wonderful with Wrigley! He sent us pictures every day so we could see how content Wrigley was. We hope Ben can take care of Wrigley every time we leave town.

Spencer and Amelia always keep in touch and send pictures and videos of my dog’s daily life. They are amazing, definitely will choose them again for next time. During last 20 days, my dog is well taken cared. He is accompanied by Spence and Amelia’s two sweet dogs. I can tell he loves this family very much.

Kelly was great to coordinate with, and I felt confident I was leaving Decker in great hands! He came home happy after a weekend of play with Ziggy and great care. Would absolutely rebook with them.

Gail and Felicity took excellent care of Stevie once again. He seems so happy and content with them! I also totally trust them to look after his eye issues - and that's a huge relief for me!

Winnie had such a good time at Muhammad‘a place! She made herself at home very quickly and was in her “good tired” mode once she returned home, which tells us she was well exercised and entertained! Thank you again for taking care of our fur child!

Lucas and his girlfriend took great care of our little dog Jake while we were out of the country for a week. He had a great time and I could tell he enjoyed his stay and was very comfortable with them. Their home and space is very clean and they are very kind and accommodating. Jake is a senior chihuahua with a big personality and a couple of behavioral quirks and they handled this with understanding and patience. I would definitely recommend their services and would happily have Jake stay with them again!! :)

Jilli-Ann had such a safe and loving environment, and we felt very comfortable leaving Louie there for the week. We always looked forward to seeing pictures of Louie thriving in his home away from home. He enjoyed lots of walks and play time in the fenced in backyard. Louie had such a good time, and was eager to go back!

Trent spoiled my dog with lots of exercise - he came home pooped after spending the night! He sent lots of photos during Yogi’s stay. I’d highly recommend Trent, and I’ll be using him again for sure!

Sondra and her family we're amazing! Took excellent care of our boy Jake. Multiple daily walks, updates and pictures. Jake can have some anxiety issues and she was more than happy to accommodate and adjust as needed for him. Also had a last minute ear infection that was no issue for her and again was awesome with giving him drops and providing updates to us. Would recommend Sondra highly to anyone looking for that extra care for their furry loved ones!

Brandon is the most caring and responsible pet owner I know. He loves cuddles and nose kisses from his dog King. I would definitely recommend Brandon to watch any dog. He has the biggest heart. Brandon likes to play ball with King and gives him lots of treats. Brandon is definitely a dog person. I have a chocolate lab and black lab who are spoiled rotten. Brandon is awesome around my chocolate lab (Sophie) who has a hard time getting to know new people and she took to Brandon almost instantly! Abbie the momma black lab loves him too! Definitely a good dog sitter! Good luck Brandon with the new fur babies!

Jenna's dog sitting services are nothing short of exceptional! From the moment I dropped off Mylo, it was evident that Jenna's genuine love for animals shines through in her care. She went above and beyond to understand Mylo's individual needs, providing tailored attention. What truly amazed me was the positive transformation in Mylo's demeanor after their stay with Jenna - they returned calmer and better behaved than ever before. Additionally, Jenna's attention to detail was remarkable; she even took the initiative to clean Mylo's ears, ensuring his overall health and comfort were a top priority. Jenna's excellent communication and regular updates gave me peace of mind throughout the entire process. Without a doubt, Jenna is an amazing person and a remarkable dog sitter, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking top-notch care for their beloved pets.

Jill provided wonderful overnight care to our Georgie for 3 days! We appreciated her attention to detail, safety and spending lots of time with us during a meet and greet several days before our trip to help Georgie develop trust and comfort in her home. Jill’s home is also very clean and she has a great backyard that is fully fenced with a locked gate. While we were away, we also appreciated how Jill updated us regularly with messages and pictures of Georgie’s day. It was also obvious to us that Jill really loves dogs and has a lot of knowledge and experience with their care. We would not hesitate to recommend Jill to anyone needing overnight pet care and will be contacting her again for our next trip! Thanks again Jill!!

This was the first time we've used a dog sitter and couldn't be more pleased by the service provided by Mary. She was attentive and confident, putting us at ease. Our quirky, unpredictable poodle made himself at home with Mary and thoroughly enjoyed himself. I highly recommend Mary and will definitely request her services again in the future.
