11. Michelle A.
“Michelle always takes excellent care of our dogs. We occasionally require care for the dogs anywhere from a night to a week at a time and she is always very flexible and goes above and beyond. The dogs are always playing or going for walks and get plenty of snuggles. I also love how she lives on a road with two dead ends so I don’t have to worry about busy traffic. I wouldn’t trust anyone else to care for my dogs.”


12. Joanne & Timothy D.

“Timothy and Joanne are wonderful dog day care hosts. My dog Brian was welcomed into their home, and socialized quickly with their dog "Banksey". Tim and Joanne took both dogs on walks to a nearby park, and texted me pics showing Brian at play and rest in their home. As I was traveling, I appreciated the sense of security and comfort seeing that Brian was happy and enjoying his time with Tim, Joanne, and Banksey. I highly recommend Tim and Joanne as trustworthy dog sitters. They clearly love dogs and have a lovely home with ample yard and safe neighborhood space for dog walking.”
