“Jenevieve was excellent and took such great care of Kenny! We’re pretty sure he didn’t even miss us because he was having so much fun. She was very organized, thorough, and communicative, and incredibly patient with all of our questions before and during his stay. We especially loved getting photos of Kenny while we were on vacation—it was great seeing how happy he was. Highly recommend Jenevieve, and we would absolutely use her services again!”

“Lisa was a wonderful host to Lulu who boarded for the first time in her life. She is on a special diet and Lisa cared for her like her own dog. Lulu enjoyed her stay there and we could see that she was well taken care of and enjoyed her stayed for 5 nights. Lisa will be taking care of Lulu when we need to board her on our trips where she cannot go with us in the future. Thank you so much for taking good care of Lulu Lisa!!!”

“It was our dogs' first time staying with someone other than family, so we were a bit nervous at first... but upon meeting, we were immediately put at ease. Our dogs had a blast and were absolutely treated with the same love and snuggles our family gives. We loved the updates, and both dogs came home ready for a long nap from lots of playtime with their new friends. We are grateful and will definitely use Mackenzie and Anthony again!! Thank you, thank you!!”

About: We are a 2 person team of Jaleah and Drew. We both grew up having dogs of many different sizes and can handle almost anything if communicated! We’d love to give your pet exercise, cuddles, or whatever they need! Drew wakes up around 5 am and will be able to take your pet out and when Jaleah wakes up around 7, they’ll go out again. Drew gets off work at 1 and will take them on a long walk. When Jaleah gets off work around 5, we usually go for another evening walk. We live in an apartment but are near many trails and even have access to a mini dog park. We are very responsible with pets. We will make sure they’re cared for and will follow any directions given to us. We have a variety of skills with dogs so there’s a good chance I can do whatever you need! We will treat your pets as if they were our own!

Rebekah and her fur family took excellent care of our dog during our long vacation — she provided photos every day we were gone, and Bowie came back in high spirits and in perfect health! I think he’ll be counting down the days until he can come back to Rebekah’s house! Thanks so much again!

Hannah was absolutely amazing and went above and beyond for our pups!!! She was so responsive, constantly checking in with us, sending us photos, and doing whatever needed to be done to help our pups feel at home. One of our dogs is a bit anxious and Hannah was so patient and sweet and made her feel so safe and comfortable. She knows exactly what she’s doing and it was so great to know our dogs were in good hands while we were gone. She was so great and I know our dogs were her top priority and I am just so thankful!! I cannot recommend Hannah enough, we will definitely be booking with her again the next time we go out of town.

Kevin is simply the best! We have known him for two years and he does a wonderful job every time. He is the type of person that all dogs love and can relax around. Kevin’s communication before, during, and after stays is awesome; I’m able to relax and know things are going well while we’re away. I’d recommend Kevin to anyone and everyone!
