Xintian took such amazing care of Chopper! He is very anxious with everyone and hates to be left with a babysitter but he warmed up to Xintian so fast, and I could tell she cared for him as if he was her own dog. We will always be going with Xintian as our first choice from now on! Chopper can’t wait!

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Jessie and Joseph. From the very first meeting, it was clear how much they genuinely care for animals. Throughout the time they cared for him, I received regular updates, photos, and little notes about how his day was going. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was not only being well looked after, but also loved and entertained. If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and truly passionate about dogs, I highly recommend Jessie and Joseph.They treat your pup like family, and that’s the best gift a pet parent could ask for.

Liz is very attentive and caring for my puppy Samoyed that’s 5months old. We put our puppy with Liz few days for boarding since we are went for a short trip, and we absolutely love her. She sent me pictures and always keeping me updated with my puppy on a regular basis. My puppy is so happy that she gets to play with other dogs and a backyard that she can comfortably run around the grass. If you are looking for someone who is responsible and trustful, highly recommend Liz and will definitely come back!

Jackson was so so good with Tux. He was open to letting Tux and Lego meet a couple of times before boarding, sent me so many photos and videos of my boy, and helped ease my anxieties. Tux was a happy tired boy when he came home! I will definitely be booking him here again :)

Jacky & Yunn were highly recommended to us by my sister, and they absolutely lived up to the praise! They took fantastic care of my pup, Ebi, for the weekend. Since this was Ebi’s first boarding experience and she’s an anxious dog, I was nervous about how she would do, but she looked so comfortable and settled with them! Jacky & Yunn kept us updated with messages, photos, and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Their care and attentiveness made the entire experience stress-free. Thank you for making Ebi’s first boarding experience such a success!

Diana and Kris did an excellent job. They took good care of our toy poodle Luca who is an active dog and likes to be the centre of attraction. Diana went above and beyond because she was able to teach some tricks to Luca. They consistently sent photos and videos while we were away for 4days and kept us informed about Luca’s well being. It really gave us peace of mind because she was comfortable with them specially with their kids. We were so fortunate to have found a reliable pet sitter for Luca. We highly recommend them!

Brant was amazing with Biscuit. We received numerous photo and even video updates through his stay. Biscuit got lots of walks and freedom to roam in his yard and play with his dogs. He made sure Biscuit was comfortable with his dogs and was very patient with Biscuit who was scared at first. Now Biscuit has new best friends.

Samantha is great. Our pup Kai spent a weekend with Samantha. This was his first boarding experience and it couldn’t have gone any better. Not only did Samantha take amazing care of Kai, she regularly provided updates and her mother even went as far to personally sew a customized bandanna for Kai. We appreciate her and her family.
