“Debbie was fantastic! I was so happy Buttercup had the best boarding experience while we were gone on our trip.

“Lisa was great! My dog can get pretty sad and anxious while I’m away and he felt comfortable enough at her house to perk up, chill out and be his happy normal self. She took great care of him and followed his quirky list of directions well! Will definitely try to book her again in the future.”

Deboye was wonderful with Johnny, and we would 100% book with him again. From the start, he took all of our notes and concerns seriously, which gave us so much peace of mind. We could tell Johnny was in great hands and being really well cared for. He was so sweet about meeting Johnny at his own pace and never pushing him too quickly, which helped him settle in comfortably. He picked up on Johnny’s little quirks and routine right away, stayed on top of his meds, and kept him on his normal schedule. We also really appreciated all of the updates and photos throughout the stay — we missed our pup a lot, and it was such a comfort getting those check-ins and knowing he was doing well. Deboye is attentive, responsible, flexible, and genuinely kind. We’re so grateful for the care he gave Johnny and wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again. We’d absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for someone thoughtful and trustworthy to care for their dog.
I cannot express how relieved I am to have found such a wonderful Dog Sitter. My dog can be a little nervous at times, and she was perfectly comfortable for a long stay with Vivian. Vivian sent pictures each day, and I could see how comfortable Blanca was in her care. 100% recommend Vivian, and will be sure to bring Blanca back regularly, as they have formed a great bond. Thank you Vivian, I know Blanca looks forward to seeing you again.
Sean did great with your 2 small dogs even with the short notice. This was our first time leaving our little guys with anyone. Sean was waiting outside to greet us as we pulled. He was great about sending regular updates and pictures. We would highly recommend him. We will definitely be booking with Sean in the future.
Shadie did really well with Reuben and he warmed up to her quickly, since this was his first time being watched by her. She let him play in background with other dogs and snuggle with him and he overall had a blast and was comfortable. She also is great with communication and send frequent photos of Reuben. Definitely recommend.
