“Sara was great! Our pup got a stomach bug when he was with her and she had to deal with a lot, but took it in stride and made sure he was taken care of. She communicated well through the entire process, took great care of our pup, took him for walks, and let him snuggle up.”
“Briah did a great job with my dog. She took him on many walks, showered him with love and kept me updated with pictures and messages. My dog looked happy and well taken care of when I picked him up, and now every time we walk by Briah’s place he wants to go in. It was also very easy to communicate with Briah, I certainly would recommend her to anyone and I am going to book her again.”
“If you seek a fun family environment with plenty of activity and a secure backyard, then this is the place for you! My boys loved staying here while I was in Yellowstone!”
“Alyssa and her furry fam were wonderful! We received lots of photos and updates regarding our pup's activities. He had so much fun romping with his two new friends. Alyssa will definitely be at the top of our list next time we need a doggy sitter. Thanks Alyssa!”
“Chris was able to take Oliver at short notice for a trip I went on. We had a prior meet and greet so I felt comfortable with what to expect. Chris updated me on Oliver and sent pictures. Oliver looked like he had a great time with Chris and Dolly (his pup). He went straight to sleep when I brought him home!”

“Great experience. We left two dogs overnight. We had an emergency out of state and needed to leave our two dog overnight and most of the next day. Nathen was very accommodating with the last minute request. Our girls had never been left before, but Nathen provided updates and picture to help ease my anxiety, in an already stressful situation. The girls were happy and taken care of. Will recommend Nathen to friends. If needed will use him again.”

It was a last minute request and she answered and coordinated with me quickly and efficiently. She’s friendly, professional and close to the airport. Would definitely recommend boarding with Samantha!”

“We loved Stephanie! All correspondence, meet & greet, drop off and pick up were all positive experiences. She even sent a photo of our dog each day of our trip. I felt 100% comfortable having our fur baby in Stephanie's care. Highly recommend.”
“Laura was the absolute best! Took in my anxious big baby pittie and loved him from the first second. My boy seemed so comfortable and Laura provided pictures, videos and updates during my 24 hours away from Blue. I couldn't be happier or have asked for a better person to care for my boy 💙🩵”

Regan was delightful! Picked my dog up right at our hotel. Kept us informed. Was flexible when we didn't know exactly when the last event would let out. Sent photos and updates on our pup and she was happy, clean, and in good spirits upon her return. Would love to use him again if we return to Kansas City.
Kylie is amazing, with her being new to platform I’m sure she will gain more repeat bookings because of how well she does with pets. She did amazing with my senior baby dog and I look forward to using her again, he adapted so well she her which is hard to come across. She is very flexible, accommodating, and informative- highly recommend using someone who is a fellow dog lover and she is it!
