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!! :)

Many thanks to Emily for watching my gal Bootie! She was professional, reassuring and had a great disposition with Bootie. She provided lots of pictures and I could tell Bootie was having a ball of a time. Highly recommend Emily!

We had the best first experience to not only Rover but also leaving Molly for the first time. We received daily updates and we could tell they were really enjoying and getting to know Molly well! Always very responsive, we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing she was still living her best life with all her walks and cuddles! They were such a great second home for Molly and we highly recommend this family!

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.

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.

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.

Teddy seemed to be well looked after. With 4 guys in the house, he never lacked attention. I would not hesitate to have Teddy looked after by Muhammad.

Nik is an excellent sitter! They are very communicative and we received lots of photos and updates during Remy's 3-night stay. Pick-up and drop-off were a breeze, and Nik ensured that Remy and Billie were introduced to each other in a way that worked for both dogs. They have a calm and gentle demeanor and Remy obviously loved them. He even learned a new trick during his stay with Nik. They went on lots of walks together and a trip to the beach. Remy came home happy and snoozy. We would certainly trust Nik again in the future with Remy.
