“Kwong took good of Hero. She kept me updated on all his progress through the stay and sent me so many pictures and videos. Hero was super active and when I got home he was really tired and went straight for a nap. It seems that him and Bobby really had a great time. For sure he is going to get back to play with Bobby again. Thank you.”

15. Sarah A.
About: Hi there! My name is Sarah and I have had dogs of many breeds and sizes my whole life! Dogs are my absolute passion and since I work from home Mon-Friday I would love for your dog to come and spend some time with me and my 63 pound bully mix, Rocky. He ABSOLUTELY loves other dogs and having a companion every now and then would be great for him. We take long walks and hikes daily and have multiple play sessions in our large fenced in backyard. I have extensive experience with small and large breed dogs, can read body language and take great care to provide safety for any dogs within my care. I also would be more than happy to care for your puppy and would happily work on potty training and basic commands with them. If all you need is dog walking, I would love to add a walking buddy for our boy Rocky to accompany us on our daily hikes and trail walks. ***Please note we have a 4 year old and her safety and the safety of your pup is of utmost importance. Your fur baby must be friendly with children to be accepted for boarding and must be friendly with other dogs to be accepted for dog walking. I work from home every day with flexible hours so can accommodate dogs of all energy levels. They will get all the cuddles and play time they need without hesitation. Our dog is crate trained, off-leash trained, recall-trained and obedience trained. He can be separated from other dogs if your baby needs some space or 1 on 1 time. We also have an office upstairs where your dog can have some alone time away from the chaos of every day life. Any instructions provided by you will be followed with care and daily updates with pictures/videos will be provided to you.

18. Suga A.

“Suga took care of my 9 months old Loona very well. She had 2 teenagers who helped out on walks and playing fetch. Suga does have a larger dog of her own, but my dog seemed to get along well with her dog. Suga does provide good communication with text messages and pictures. At the end of the day, Loona was very happy and I would use Suga again.”
