Leslie and Kyle set the bar for all other pet sitters! On the first morning of their stay my cat got out due to a faulty window in my apartment and they handled the situation so well. Leslie sent a text explaining what happened and that my cat had returned safely and she was so calm about the whole thing that it put me at ease for the rest of my trip. Kyle went above and beyond and not only fixed the window screen (he actually fixed two screens during their stay!) but also made sure the window was secure until maintenance could come and fix the issue. Their go with the flow attitude was amazing. I would 100% have them sit for me again! I can not recommend them enough. You would be lucky to have Leslie and Kyle as your sitters :)
Mary Jessica was a wonderful house and pet sitter for our GIANT dog Mamma Mia. She took extremely good care of our house with it cleaner than we left it upon our return. Our neighbors remarked on all the walks she gave Mamma and Mamma seemed very pleased with the entire experience. Mary Jessica was self sufficient, needing very little instruction outside of our Welcome Guide. She followed everything I wrote and asked how much communication I’d want. I’m very pleased and would both recommend her and love to have her again.
What a lovely couple Tara and Tyler are. They had been in Scottsdale about six weeks before the house sit. and can to meet us. Rusé, our Toy Fox Terrier, fell in love with them immediately, and was in Tara’s arms within two minutes. We always like our sitters to arrive the day before we leave, take them out to dinner and get to know them. It was quite apparent from the videos and photos we received, that Rusé did not miss us. Tara and Tyler’s three grown up children joined them before Xmas-to Rusé’s delight as these were additional hands to throw his rubber bones and balls. The house was all clean and tidy, when we returned.. There is a strong possibility that Tara and Tyler will move to Arizona from Montana, with two of their children, recently moved to the area. They have already offered to look after Rusé in the future. We know he would love it. We cannot recommend Tyler and Tara higher enough, they were perfect House and Pet sitters
Rachel was an excellent pet sitter for my cat. She was a good communicator and also kept my place very tidy. She even left me a gift of a bar of chocolate upon her departure! Highly recommend.
BriAnna was our first pet sitter and we loved her :). She made every step very simple for us, communication was great, Pastis and Anubis seemed to be very happy with her, and the house was very clean when we came back. We highly recommend BriAnna to take care of your pets and we would love to have her back!
Angelica was a wonderful pet sitter for our dog Rosie! She was easy to communicate with before and during the sit (very responsive), and made time to do a walk through of our house/intro to Rosie prior to the sit. She was extremely reliable throughout the process, and left our house really neat. Rosie was happy when we got home! We'd be happy to have Angelica sit for us again and would recommend her to anyone!
Exceptional Pet Sitters - Highly Recommend Diedre and Keith! I am thrilled to leave a glowing review for our trusted house and pet sitters, Diedre and Keith. They took exceptional care of our long-haired cat, Molly, and our home during our absence. Everything went incredibly smoothly, and their communication was top-notch. Dierdre and Keith provided regular updates, including delightful pictures of Molly, which put our minds at ease while we were away. Upon our return, it was evident that Molly had been well cared for and was content. The genuine love and understanding Diedre and Keith have for both dogs and cats was apparent in their interactions with Molly, and it was clear that they had made her feel comfortable and secure in their care. Their friendly and professional demeanor made the entire experience truly enjoyable. In addition to taking great care of our beloved pet, Diedre and Keith ensured that our home was in excellent condition upon our return. They even went the extra mile by informing us about the leftovers they left in the fridge, which was a thoughtful gesture. I wholeheartedly recommend Diedre and Keith as exceptional pet and house sitters. Their attentive and caring approach, coupled with their expertise, make them a perfect choice for anyone seeking reliable and trustworthy sitters. Don't hesitate to entrust your home and pets to this fantastic duo!
Megan and her partner were INCREDIBLE pet & house sitters during my 5 days away last month. I received consistent communication in the form of updates & photos and I had the true sense that Megan was invested in the wellbeing of my animals and truly enjoyed being with them! My house was CLEANER than I left it (immaculate!) and she left a sweet card thanking us upon our return. Truly the best sitting experience I've had thus far, thank YOU so much!
5 stars? Minimum, seriously, Tyler exceeded our expectations and we are DEMANDING when it comes to caring for our 4 pups! Fortunate to meet Tyler in person about a month prior, instant rapport, and she was basically born surrounded by animals. Professional high energy, and enthusiastic love for animals! We asked Tyler "Why the heck would you drive 1.5 hours from Nashville to hang in our small town?" Tyler replied "Have had animals all my life, current Nashville location cannot, I need my animal fix!" Tyler arrived the evening prior to our departure, met our 4 dogs, the eldest is special needs with bad hips, the youngest a wild child 2 year old husky, and in the 15 years of having family or friends assist with our pup sitting, this is the most positive and enthusiastic our dogs have been to anyone outside our home. It was an instant love affair. Our dogs are so spoiled with mom & dad working from home, nearly 24/7 attachment, they typically become depressed, despondent, ornery, you name it, even if we go out for 2-3 hours. The 3 instances where we did an overnight trip or the like, they acted as if we had abandoned! When we came home after 3 nights away (was going to be 5 but business cut our first vacation in 10 years short), when we walked in the 4 of them looked up as if to say "Oh your home how nice" and were content as if we had never left. That is a FIRST in 15 years. Not only did Tyler provide us with updates, photos, messages, etc. she organized (we did not require nor ask) our complete chaos of a large kitchen drawers, pots pans, you name it, it was the most organized we have been in a LONG time. Our eldest handicapped Husky, usually has accidents in the house at least once a day. The youngest 2 year old loves to chew up the carpet, toys, bedding. Under Tyler's watch, no accident, no chewing, and total happiness from a new affectionate friend! This was our VERY FIRST Trusted House/Pet sitter foray, and Tyler far exceeded or expectations, and set a standard that will be difficult for others to follow. Allowing a total stranger to watch your beloved pets and home is a serious undertaking, and Trusted House/Pet provided us with a rock star. Family and friends alike joke how we are over the top with our dogs, and Tyler did not bat an eye, and provided a seamless transition of puppy affection and well being. This review may seem over the top to some, all I can say is this is 100% true to life, and other Home/Pet owners are welcome to reach out to us for further referral. Those who are able to work with Tyler depending on her work/travel schedule would be well served to invite her without hesitation. Tyler, THANK YOU for allowing us to enjoy a few nights for the first time in a decade! Dean & Diana Smith
Leo and Susi were wonderful pet sitters for our two cats. They were responsive, communicative, and gracious guests, and the I swear the house was cleaner when we got home than we left it. The cats were very contented. Any time we leave we will be checking in with them first. Such a pleasure to work with.

So happy that we met Maria on our family ski trip to Sun Valley. Maria impressed us because she has been so intuitive with our two chocolate labs. Each and every day, she starts the day with a two hour hike in a remote flat area. Our dogs were so happy and exhausted upon their return. Absolutely the best addition to our trip.
Maria has been our pet nanny since our dog was a puppy and the service she provides is second to none. When she takes our dog she picks him up and drops him off which is so helpful, but what she does is so much more than a hike . The value of having your dog work within a pack under her leadership is not replicable when you hike your own dog. He has become such a social easy going dog who can sit and stay around wildlife and respond quickly to commands. We love following her instagram and being able to watch videos of how he did on his walks, when you're gone all day from home it makes you feel better seeing how much fun your dog is having! When Maria sits overnight she includes daily hikes, and we come home to a house even cleaner than how we left it. I trust her fully and feel so fortunate to have her in our lives, I don't know how we could do it without her!
Maria is the best dog sitter *ever.* She has taken thoughtful care of not just my dog but so many others I know of in the community. They are loved, cherished, and looked after not to mention taken on wonderful adventures where they get to experience amazing new sniffs. My dog is totally enamored of "Auntie Maria." It's hard to leave your pets when you have to travel and can't take them but have no fear, their paws are in incredibly safe and caring hands with Maria. Five stars and then some!
We a had a great experience with the Pet Nanny.
I had to leave for a month to go out of town and my dog sitter fell through the night before. Alpine Kennels was able to help and provide my dogs with a great home for the duration of my trip. My dogs were well taken care of. Taylor and her family are simply amazing and very kind. They have lots of room for the animals to play, and my dogs were happy Alpine Kennel campers. To top, their rates are affordable.
My sister took her furbaby here and they loved it! Their Golden did too! The dogs get exercise, monitored socialization, and fantastic care!! If we lived in that area, our dogs would only go here!!
I have mixed feelings about this place. They have very nice fenced in backyards, a kind staff and very competitive prices. On the other hand, I worry about attentiveness, as this is pretty much a kennel in someone’s yard run as a side gig. The instructions I gave for feeding were not noted or followed and we were given about 2/3 of our food back after 3 days when we expected it to be almost all gone, so we know he was pretty underfed during his time there. There didn’t really seem like there was a dedicated person watching the dogs, they were just playing outside and someone came out of the house when we arrived and went back in after we left. He was put in to the kennel right away when we got there, so we never actually saw him playing or how much of his time was spent in the individual kennel. Overall, I would recommend boarding your dog here (mostly short-term), but just know it’s primarily someone’s house with a dog kennel in the back.
We had such a great experience at Alpine. Our puppy was able to run in the grassy areas and get lots of exercise. We will definitely use Alpine again. Thank you Hannah!!!!!
Our rescue Jack Russell has made great strides with socializing during day care at Alpine. He also comes home tired. Wahoo!!
We've been taking our dogs here for many years. Every single time was great. Dogs run to get in. They seem to always have a good time.
What a wonderful place! They took such amazing care of my husky for a week. We will be using them again.
Friendly staff, nice dogs, the price is comparable to other kennels. They provide food. Second dog is a bit discounted. They take credit cards.
Extremely friendly and very caring!
We always have a great experience with April when she cares for our Shepherd Knox. She makes sure that we are kept informed about him each day and sends photos or fun videos! We enjoy a worry free getaway because of her experience with him. She is extremely professional and you can leave your pets with her without thinking twice. Thanks again April! Knox thanks you too!

Hound + Haus is a very conscientious pet caregiver. She has watched and cared for my furr babies since they were young and has provided them with lots of love. She is very responsible with feeding, walking and playtime and ensures that they are in a safe environment at all times. With her vast experience and knowledge of working with pets I never had to worry about my pet while in her care, she has always kept me informed of their activities. I would highly recommend her as a furr baby walker/sitter, your pet will be very well looked after and will enjoy seeing her every time she visits!
April did more than we asked her to do. Our dog seemed better off when we got back from our trip than when we left. We loved the video updates and our house was in great shape when we returned. Very relieved that we can leave our dog and our house in great hands. Will use her again and I highly recommend her.
I can always rest easy when I go out of town knowing that April is watching my best friend, Bill. I've asked her to watch my four-year-old Australian Cattle Dog mix multiple times over the years for various reasons and I've always been able to leave knowing that Bill is in good hands. I absolutely recommend April for your pet sitting needs!
The gratitude and trust I have in April at Hound + Haus is immeasurable. From barn cats to my beloved dog and very valuable horses, I know they each get the best of care when I need to be gone.
Hound and Haus is awesome! April is organized and great at communicating, and clearly loves animals. I highly recommend April / H&H!
