Ben was amazing! I left Sadie with him for 7 days and Ben took her on many walks, including the park and beach. Ben also updated me with photos and took good care of Sadie. She was very happy staying with Ben and I would definitely book again. Ben loves animals and it really shows. Thanks again!

Amelia and Spencer far exceeded my expectations in all aspects. After a horrendously poor experience several months ago with another boarder, Amelia and Spencer's care helped me to regain the confidence in boarding my golden retriever again. What a HUGE weight off my shoulders! The most outstanding aspects of their care related to the attention paid to the individuality of the dog, quality exercise, and correspondence with myself. Charlotte (my dog) is well nourished, well exercised and OH so happy after her boarding experience. That their own two dogs are extremely well trained truly makes for the most well rounded experience for all. I will absolutely be a returning client for as long as I can! Thanks to both!

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.

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!! :)

I cannot express enough gratitude for the amazing care my furry friend received from Jilli-Ann. Leaving my dog in someone else's care is always a nerve-wracking experience for me, but from the moment I met her, I knew my dog was in good hands. My dog come back home happy, healthy, and well-exercised after every visit. I wholeheartedly trust Jilli-Ann with my pet and highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a caring and reliable caregiver.

Andrew was super nice during all the time Chico has been there. He sent us constant updates and pictures of how our dog was doing more than once a day. Always responsive, he would reply to our messages super quickly. Would definitely recommend him and book again.

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!

I cannot be thankful enough for Lily. She takes care of my puppy Ellie with lots of love and kindness. She has been very thorough on her care and walks I actually left Ellie with her today and Ellie was extremely happy to see her, jumping around in celebration. She has also taken care of her while having an eye infection and administering her antibiotics. Lily's location makes having her as a sitter very convenient. Additionally, she is a very kind person to person aside from her love for dogs. I offer my highest recommendation for Lily, anyone would be very lucky to have her as a dog sitter!

When I first reached out to Jenna to help me with my pet sitting, and I was aware she was busy but she always found a way to be able to accommodate me when ever I needed. Jenna is a very caring person who loves what she does, I gained a lot of nutrition and handling information from her and found it very helpful and effective. My puppers loved Jenna and enjoyed making friends with her doggo as well- Jenna always considered Bruno in outings and always checked in to see how things were doing! I would definitely recommend her as she shows genuine care for pets and their owners!

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.

About: I cannot get enough of fur babies. I personally own 2 Cockapoos who are gentle playmates and love other dogs. My family is always looking for new friends to hang out with. I currently work from home as a hairdresser. I take every afternoon off to walk my own dogs and I have space in the day to take dogs outside and do other activities. I have a spacious home which makes it available for access outside and inside all day. I take great pride and respect, other people, spaces, and my own, which is evident as you arrive in my house. I believe leaving things exactly how it was left.

Marisa and Danny were a one and done meetup for us. We knew instantly, as did our dog, that they were going to be great companions. They helped us navigate all the options for caring at our home and theirs - and they were very understanding and flexible with all our requests and needs. We're happy to call them our extended family and plan on future bookings with them. Highly recommend!
