1. Ashley M.
“After a quick move to out of state move to Chicago with a vacation already planned, we had to scramble to find somewhere for our dogs go. Our dogs stayed with Ashley for a full week and it was such a relief to know they were well taken care of. We received frequent pictures and updates during the week. One of our dogs is having a hard time adjusting to city life and Ashley was very accommodating and gracious with her. We will definitely be reaching out to Ashley again in the future!”
2. Tania B.
“Tania is AMAZING!! Our dog is happy and healthy when we picked her up. She sent updates throughout our time away. She is very quick to respond. She is also very thorough when caring for our dog. Would highly recommend!”
3. Andrew T.
“I would highly recommend Andrew to sit your fur-baby! Him and his wife watched my dog Ramsey for 2 nights, initially I had booked for one night but due to a flight issue we had to extend her stay and he was willing to accommodate last minute changes. We received photo and video updates multiple times throughout the day and I found it very thoughtful to show how she was doing. I would definitely book Andrew again! :)”
4. Gillian K.
“I was very anxious to leave my pup but they put my worries to rest providing regular updates and pictures, very responsive, made sure my pup was comfortable and cared for while I was away. My pup can be a very picky eater and they went out of their way to make sure she was eating. Thankful for their care and would book with them again!”

6. Ann-Marie H.
“Ann-Marie took great care of my fur baby while I was out of town. She sent pictures throughout the stay, maintained communication, and was flexible when we pushed our return to a later time. I would definitely recommend her and look forward to hiring her again in the future.”
7. Katie M.
“I felt super comfortable leaving Kira with Katie and Java for a weekend trip. She was really responsive and sent pictures of the doggos having a great time together. Kira came back to me relaxed and tired from a great weekend. I'll definitely book her again for future trips.”
8. Jason M.
“I would recommend Jason for any pet owner. Simply because he genuinely loves pets and cares for their well being. I have been a client of his for years and whenever I drop off Zeus it’s like I’m leaving him at his second home. He’s an excellent trainer but most Importantly he makes sure the animals in his care are comfortable and having fun! Call Jason!”
9. Briana V.
“Briana is attentive, transparent, and honest. My dog randomly started bleeding at her house due to a sudden prostate issue and Briana communicated with me immediately. She even fed him a special diet while I tried to figure out what was going on with him. We eventually had to take him to the emergency ER, but She was awesome during the trouble shooting. If you like working with people who have strong character and a moral compass, Briana is your girl.”
10. Joanna K.

“A+++++!!!! Barbara and Chewy were absolutely incredible hosts!! We can't say enough about how thoughtful, generous, kind, and communicative that Barbara was during our trip.
