Viktorija is the kindest and most loving person in every way one can ask for. I couldn’t have imagined a better caretaker for my dog and I will absolutely turn to her whenever I need ❤️ She has my strongest recommendation!

Nicole and her family were amazing with our dog. We were informed more than on a daily basis about our angel. The pictures were very telling that our little boy had an amazing stay. We were in a different time zone and weren't always able to stay fully connected, so when we were able to get signal and check in we were so happy to see the updates. Nicole was kind enough to come for a few walks before boarding so everyone could meet and our little guy would be comfortable. She was comfortable and knowledgeable about taking care of our pup. We fully recommend her for walks and boarding!

Another lovely stay for our girl Mocha at Victoria's! We loved getting all the photos and videos of Mocha out with other pups. She looked so so happy in each pic, gives us great peace knowing she is also having fun and being taken care of well during our trips. Thank you, Victoria!!

Sarah is wonderful! She was lovely, responsible, and fabulous with our pup who stayed with her for a whole week, and she was perfect in her communication with me. Our dog can sometimes be a little difficult on leash, and she managed him beautifully. She really helped me feel comfortable while away, in not needing to worry at all about my dog. She was also incredibly flexible as it was better for me to drop him off a day earlier than initially planned. I fully and completely recommend Sarah (though I don't really want to because I know she'll become hard to book!).

A big thank you to Chloe for watching our puppy Ginkgo over the weekend! Chloe was an absolute joy from the beginning. Not only did she take the time to FaceTime and make sure we were comfortable as it was our first time using rover but she also sent updates, pictures and was super attentive about our pets allergies and needs. I cannot recommend Chloe enough and I thank her for filling our puppies days with fun love and adventure!

Donna was absolutely amazing! Our dog is a bit shy but we were amazed at how quickly she made him feel at home and part of the dog group and how comfy he became with her. We will 100% use Donna for dogsitting in the future. She sent so many wonderful photos and videos! Thank you!

Frederica and her partner took such good care of my dog! It had rained and the residual water in my dogs coat made him itchy- they let me know and gave him a bath with sensitive dog shampoo and he was good as new before he got home to me!

This was Charlie’s first stay with Mercis. Charlie is very choosy with new boarders. He was very comfortable with Mercis from the first time he met her. We got frequent updates, pictures and videos during the whole stay. Charlie has a great time! We will definitely board Charlie again with her. Highly recommend Mercis for your boarding needs!!

We had a great experience with Philip. He met with us in advance of the boarding to discuss his experience, and to show us where our puppy would be spending time. Over the course of the 11 days, he gave our puppy lots of outside time and lots of socialization with other dogs. He shared pictures and updates with us every day. We will use Philip again!

Kathryn did great with my anxious dog! She gave frequent updates and pictures and really made me feel comfortable being away from him. My dog is very scared of new people but Kathryn and her dog Tony made him so comfortable. Benny had a great time and we’ll definitely be rebooking in the future!
