Marilyn has taken care of my dog twice now and both experiences have been amazing. My dog loves going to Marilyn's, and I was given updates throughout her stay to know that all was well. I'll definitely be booking with Marilyn again in the future!

I can definitely tell that my pup enjoyed his stay. The pics that I received of him playing really brought me great comfort that I had made a good choice in a sitter. I will definitely be booking with Debra again! Thank you.

Our dog Shaq was great in Susan's hands. I love that she kept us in the loop while we were away, took great care of Shaq, and sent us tons of pictures and videos. He enjoyed playing with Hank, Larry and Thelma. It was really nice to know that Shaq was in capable and loving hands. I would definitely recommend her and use her in future .

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.

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.

Vanessa was fantastic! We were going out of state for a few days and it was our first time leaving Ghibli with anyone for more than an afternoon so we were nervous but she was so great with keeping us updated and sending pictures. Our boy had so much fun playing with the other guests and running around in the backyard. Will be rebooking for any future trips!

Betsy was magnificent. One of our dogs was very difficult and cried into the late evening. Betsy was great dealing with this dog's emotional problems which I didn't expect. I consulted a dog trainer about this and won't board this dog until her problems are resolved. Other than that the stay during the day was wonderful for our two dogs. Betsy provides pictures and her two little dogs are great playmates for our dogs. Her back yard is expansive and she keeps it flea and tick free.

Absolutely amazing, my kitten had a spectacular time with Ross. He sent lots of pictures and updates and took time to hangout and play with her. Highly recommend. Ross is also very quick to respond and can be a real life saver if you are in need for a last minute sitter.

This was my first time leaving my cat with a sitter and it could not have gone better. Ryana provided a clean, safe, loving space. She provided updates, photos, and checked in just the right amount. I was able to fully relax on my vacation knowing Luna was in Ryana's care! I will absolutely use Ryana for pet sitting in the future.

Erin did great with my anxious Aussie raised in quarantine! He had tons of fun playing with her dog Lani in their giant yard. Erin also sends plenty of updates. My dog has never been boarded before but did really well with her.
