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!! :)

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.

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.

David is wonderful! Our dog, Deschutes, had his own vacation while we were away. David, and his dog Austin, were great hosts. Deschutes got loads of walks, playtime with Austin (who is extremely sweet, energetic, and playful), and special treats. He had the run of David’s house and yard. Best of all, David was in constant contact, telling us about their adventures, and sending pictures of Deschutes having the time of his life. Deschutes can’t wait til we leave him with David again!

Saki did very well at Jills place when we were out of town for a week. Previously when we left her at the kennel Saki didn’t eat and lost weight, and was a nervous wreck when she came home. This time she ate every meal, looked great and seemed very happy and relaxed. Thank you Jill for taking such good care of our fur baby!

This was my first time leaving my 3 month puppy overnight with someone else. Nicole is a very sweet, kind person. I felt very comfortable leaving my pup with her and her lovely 8 year old daughter and had no doubt they would care for him like their own pet. They prepared a comfy crate for him to sleep in which was really thoughtful and made sure to walk him and shower him with love. My puppy is high energy and rambunctious but she was very patient with him and handled him well. He was really happy when I picked him up! Would absolutely recommend and am looking forward to our next stay with them.

Brandon has watched my cat Millie a few times. And he's great with her. He's always ontime, actually early, and he's always got a smile on his face and so easy to talk to. Clean, presentable and just an over all great guy. He's always clean after he leaves and Millie seems to be in a happy mood after he leaves. I, and Millie, are glad we came across Brandon.

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.

Rachel was great! She was patient with our anxious pup and Ava seemed to settle in very easily and quickly. Rachel was also communicative and flexible with pick up/drop off times.
