1. Lily & Eric W.
“Lily & Eric provided great care for Trixie. They were responsive to our communication and we always felt confident that Trixie was in good hands. The huge fenced back yard is a wonderful place for dogs to frolic.”
2. Oana & Oliver B.
“Outstanding! Oana and Oliver took exceptional care of our standard poodle Pearl. It was our first time leaving her with someone other than family, so naturally we were very nervous. Oana and Oliver put me at ease from the minute I met them! They asked several questions and really wanted to get to know Pearl, to make sure it was a good fit. I knew it was the right choice to leave her in their care. Oana and Oliver did everything they could to make sure Pearl was comfortable in their home, including moving her crate into their bedroom so she could sleep better at night. They sent pictures every day, and responded very quickly with any questions I had. Highly recommend, and we will be using them again in the future. Thank you Oana and Oliver!”
3. Jane G.
“Jane was so great! We met up before the booking to ensure our pup would feel right at home. He got plenty of walks and play time! When I picked him up, I knew how happy he was. This is the first time he didn't try to bolt to the car to go home from an over night stay! Thank you, Jane!”
4. Ekaterina & Margarita A.
“This was our first time leaving Sailor at Kate's house. I was a little nervous about it, because Sailor gets anxious and sad when we leave her anywhere. However, it turned out this was the perfect environment for her. She warmed up quickly and had a splendid time with Archie (their goldendoodle) and the whole family! I love that they only take one dog at a time. I really appreciated the updates, photos, and videos. They are flexible, attentive, warm, and kind. It was the perfect home away from home for Sailor.”
5. Mary B.
“Mary was very patient and accomodating with us, and we especially appreciated her taking Smokey for a walk, and all the updates throughout the day. So glad to have found her!”
6. Julie U.
“Our little senior fellow had a great stay with Julie this past weekend. She sent photos that helped us feel secure, and he was a happy camper when we picked him up. We hope she’s available the next time we need her!”
7. Nicole G.
“Nicole cared for our 2 kittens for 3 nights and it couldn’t have been better! We got multiple updates and cute pictures throughout the day which made being away a lot easier. We are so grateful that they were in such good care, and would definitely recommend her!!”
8. paul d.
“Thank you to Paul & his son for sitting Chickpea for an 11-day stay! We always trust them to take great care of our dog; they are great at communicating and sending regular pic/video updates. Chickpea always comes home so happy from playing with the other dogs!”
9. Hugo & Julia C.
“Hugo & Julia were responsive, accommodating and communicative. They were wonderful with our Bailey, an almost 4 yr old, Golden Retriever, who doesn’t board often. He got to play, romp in the yard and go on walks, along with Happy. Our goal was to find a place where he would not simply be “cared for”, but would have fun & be happy at…I believe we found this here! Julia and/or Hugo texted daily with updates and pictures, assuring myself and family of his care and contentment. As Julia said, he fit right in and became part of the family! I couldn’t ask for anything more 😊”
10. Kira M.
“Teddy had a wonderful stay with Kira. They have showered him with love and care and he was actually a little sad to come back home with me after the action packed weekend he had. I have already booked his next stay with Kira.”
11. Michelle & Mike P.
“Michelle & Mike P. Are the BEST!! Never have I been so comfortable leaving my dog for 10 days! I never worried once about Cooper while we were away! We enjoyed our vacation knowing Cooper was being pampered by this wonderful family! Patrick & Bruce ? Patrick & Bruce”
12. Rupendra & Lora S.
“Rupen and Lora did a wonderful job taking care of our beagle mix, Scout. They sent photo updates and check ins periodically. I would not hesitate to use them again. Highly recommend.”
13. Maria B.
“Maria is the absolute best. She is perfect for those who are particular but how their little four-legged family members are treated and cared for. She really focused on our little Sebastian and gave him such a wonderful experience. Highly recommended!”
14. Marianne D.
“Marianne was very responsive, caring and easy to work with. Our dog got a lot of attention and we received several photos of him during his boarding. We’ll be happy to use Marianne’s services in the future, and recommend her to anyone looking for personalized boarding.”
15. Surendra S.
“They were fantastic and we loved the amount of playtime Lucy got while we were gone! Very responsive and sent tons of photos and videos of the dogs playing. Couldn’t recommend them enough, Lucy will be back!”
16. Brian S.
“Brian has been amazing. Winston is in Heaven and gets so excited the minute we turn onto their street. He’s always happy and exhausted when he comes home. Brian is super responsive and super flexible. My work schedule requires constant last minute plans or changes and Brian is always happy to accommodate.”
17. Bob & Elaine S.
“My dog stayed with Bob and Elaine for over a week during my recent vacation. I got messages and pictures (sometimes videos) every day. My dog looks happy too. Thanks”
