“I will certainly make use of Jessie’s services again. He took great care of my pup for the 8 nights I was away. I enjoyed the daily pics and updates that showed she was safe, healthy and quite content.”
“I am beyond happy with Kelly. She took such good care of Molly. I received pictures everyday and Molly always looked so happy. Will definitely be using Kelly again to take care of Molly.”
“Jessica and her family were so great with my little girl I’d use them again and again! Great communication. Super understanding. Felt so safe and comfortable. I can’t thank them enough!”
“Danielle was so accommodating with my dog Miles. She sent updates reassuring me he was doing well during his overnight stay. I would highly recommend her dog boarding services and I wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch Miles again. ?”
“Tanklin absolutely loved sierra. She showed and told me all about where my pup would be staying which is great, I’ve never had anyone do that before. She was so sweet and was very attentive. I am always nervous leaving him because of his medical issue but as I was telling her about it and about the specifics of his feeding, she was understanding and that was very reassuring. Her communication was wonderful, she sent plenty of messages with pictures and videos. I could tell he was genuinely having a good time. If I could give her 10 stars I would”
“I can’t begin to tell you how wonderful it was to have Bev. She was watching my dog during this last snow event and not only did she reassure me because I couldn’t get back in time (plane cancelled) that she would gladly keep her as long as needed she went to the store and bought more of her dog food as I didn’t send enough. I couldn’t ask for anything more. It certainly made me feel great that my dogs care was one less thing I had to worry about. I wish I could give her more than 5 stars.”
“This was my first time ever boarding Winnie and Monica put me so at ease with leaving him in her care. She even spent extra time to make sure my dog was comfortable with hers before I booked an overnight and she kept me informed on how he was doing with texts, photos and video. I would not hesitate to book a stay with her again!”
“Charlette is very kind and caring, she will take care of your fur baby as if it was her own. She communicates quickly and often, leaving you no doubt about the situation. I'm not sure how I could give her a higher recommendation, but if I could, I would!”
“Michelle was amazing to work with! We ended up having an issue with flights and had to cut our dogs stay with her short but I can tell from the time he was there how loving and attentive she is. Will book again!”
“Wonderful as always. Great couple and my dog Winnie has made a best friend in there dog. They will always be my sitters as long as they are available. Highly recommended.”
“Mindy was very sweet to our Luna! She took time to have a Meet & Greet beforehand, to make sure our pup was comfortable and that it was a good fit. She provided copious updates -- photos and videos -- and was very quick to respond when we reached out to see how things were going. Luna came home pleasantly tired *and* having made a few friends in Mindy's kitties! :) Thank you Mindy!!!”
“We had a great experience with Chelsea and Derek! I felt very comfortable leaving Salmo with them for the first time. They were very communicative - updates and pictures during the stay. Flexible on drop off and pick up which is always appreciated. Will definitely be booking again.”
“It was so reassuring knowing that Josh & Kelly were taking great care of our pup while we were on vacation. They, along with their children were so caring and loving to Gus. We received pictures and updates every day too. He couldn’t have been in better hands, and we will definitely be contacting them again to watch him.”
“Stacey is the best! We went on vacation knowing how well our Lucy was taken care of and so happy! Outstanding environment with pictures sent of how our little Diva made herself at home!!”
“Erika took great care of our dachshund Penne Linguine! She had a dedicated area for our “little princess” and made sure to give her lots of attention, walks, playtime. We received several photos and video of Penne having a great time on her “vacation”. Thanks guys!”
