Lauren dogsat our two dogs, Ellie and Mowgli, for a 5 day stretch. She let us bring the dogs over early for a meet and greet and did everything she could to reassure us they’d be taken care of. She has a ton of experience boarding and training dogs and it was evident throughout their stay. She sent us tons of photos and videos of the pups’ vacation and always answered questions about them. Our dogs are picky eaters when traveling but Lauren made sure to help them out during their stay. We’d definitely recommend her if you need someone to take care of your furry family!

There is a lot to be said for peace of mind. That's what Mona provides. She is competent, stable and considerate. In addition to being pleasant and easy to deal with, you can tell that she could handle any unforeseen situation. She is retired and able to spend time with the animals in her care. On an overnight stay, she maintained good communication and included photos. Her text was filled with the kind of info a pet parent wants to know, not kid-stuff trivia about having fun. Her house is charming, clean and in a nice safe neighborhood. A fenced in back yard is "must" for my busy Aussie. Highly recommend..

Gabi is phenomenal! Seriously. I understand why she has such spectacular reviews. She truly does love dogs and I had not one inkling of a worry the entire week I left my elderly dog with her. She sends several photo and video updates so you can get in on all the fun your pup is having. It's always such a breath of fresh air to know you are leaving your furry friend with someone who goes above and beyond. This was one of the best experiences I've had with a sitter. Zeus will definitely be back!

Amy was great! She communicated early and often, giving me confidence that my anxious little doggo settled in and had a nice sleepover, so I has able to relax and enjoy my evening as well. She has a great fenced yard and a calm, friendly dog of here own, which worked out perfectly. We will definitely use Amy again.

Aimee was very sweet and gentle with our little old man. Our dog enjoyed his time with her. She regularly communicated with us during his stay, keeping us updated with photos and videos. She also honored each of our requests regarding his care ( ie. feeding & medication).

Kathleen was amazing with my littles. Our dogs range from 13 years to 7 months and she knew exactly how to make all of them comfortable. She sent video updates frequently and I never had to worry about how they were doing. Her yard is completely fenced so there is no risk of anyone wandering off. The visit was amazing. I could tell immediately how much Kathleen loves animals. I would leave my babies with her again!

Darby was amazing! She took great care of George. He was worn out from playing with her dog for a week! I felt at peace knowing she worked from home and had a fenced in yard. She was super responsive and lovely and I would definitely book again.

I was so pleasantly surprised by how quickly my fearful and shy pup took to Skyelar! Typically drop offs are a huge stressor for him, but this was the easiest one he’s ever had thanks to Skyelar. The updates and pics made me feel so comforted. I can absolutely tell that he had a good experience because he was far less clingy than he’s ever been to me when I picked him up! I would not hesitate to rebook and highly recommend Skyelar!

Autumn is amazing. Chica & Moose's experience with Autumn was like sleeping over at your bestie's, or going to summer camp! Lots of attention, adventures, treats. Lots of snuggles and fun! She sent them home with treats and a cute holiday bandana (they are so proud of them). They adore you, Autumn, thanks for everything!

From the moment I met her, I had full confidence in Brenda because she told me that she wants to be a veterinarian!!! When I reunited with Kaussie, it was evident that Kaussie had already fallen in love with Brenda and her family due to the exceptional care he received. Also, Scooby played so well with Kaussie that I was overjoyed to see Kaussie make a new friend. Most of all, Brenda's backyard is incredibly spacious and securely fenced, so Kaussie might have been reluctant to come back to his home, lol. Choosing Brenda might have been a coincidence, but I truly believe it was the luckiest decision I made!

Claudia's professionalism, dependability, and communication is all five stars. I left my pup while on vacation and she took such loving, patient care of him, sending regular updates and pictures. It's such a relief when you're away to know that your pup is in capable hands. We're so deeply grateful!
