Angelina went above and beyond every single day, sending me regular updates, photos, and little notes that made me smile and reassured us that everything was going smoothly. Coming home, I could tell my dog had been not only well taken care of but genuinely loved. It’s such a relief to have someone I can trust. Thank you, Angelina!

Yvonne and her wonderful family cared for our pup, Ruby, as if she were their own. While we were away, Ruby was showered with love—daily walks, endless games of fetch, and all the belly rubs she could ask for. Yvonne kept us fully in the loop with frequent updates and adorable photos that made being away so much easier. We’re incredibly grateful for the attention, warmth, and communication throughout. Ruby had an amazing time, and so did we, knowing she was in such great hands.

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!

Ashley did a fantastic job! We only left our dog with her for a weekend but he seemed like he didn’t want to leave when we went to pick him up! Ashley’s dog Ruby was so sweet and friendly, they got along great. We got lots of updates and pictures and I would certainly recommend her to others :) thanks Ashley!

Amanda was amazing! She and her two boys played with and took great care of my dog. She had to leave for vacation the day I was returning from vacation. She dropped off my dog off at my house and made sure she was fed and had fresh water. I am booking her again!

My dog Miko seems to have enjoyed his stay at Sara's place. He came back all relaxed, complete opposite experience of leaving him in a pet hotel where he came back agitated for many days. Sara's place is perfect with a big fenced garden so he could play freely with her dog and others. I can only recommend her.

Kaylee was wonderful with my pup, Allie, who took to her right away. Allie tends to be anxious and appreciated Kaylee‘s calm and gentle approach. Kaylee administered her meds and kept her on her usual schedule and she kept me posted on how Allie was doing while I was away. I would highly recommend Kaylee.

I’m always jealous of my dog when I drop her off for boarding with Evan. The setting is so beautiful with the pond right there, beautiful tall trees and plenty of trails for adventures. During the week Evan sent pictures multiple times a day and quickly responded whenever I reached out. I really appreciate that he only takes one dog at a time because my dog is big and can be a lot to handle. Would recommend 10/10.
