“Monica was very kind to take my last minute booking before meeting with us. She sent us reassuring messages and pics while we were gone. Her little dog Kimmie is very sweet too. I felt completely at ease leaving my dog with her and was sure she got lots of love and attention.”

“Gabriel was an absolute professional and took such great care of our dog while we were gone for a week. We never had to worry and he had great communication and updates for us. He treats our dog like one of his family. It is clear his home is a warm and welcoming place for any animals and I wholeheartedly recommend his services. I will be using him again!”
7. Sheila K.
“Everything was great. I appears that my dog Jake like it there. He got a lot of attention. It also appears that Sheila and her husband enjoyed having Jake at their house for six overnights. Sheila sent me a lot of pictures and kept me informed about how Jake was doing. Sheila said that she primarily takes small dogs, but that she will occasionally take a big dog like Jake (Lab), as long as the big dog is well behaved. I believe that Jake was well behaved at her house. I will have to check with Sheila to see if she will take him again in the future.”

“Lauren, Zach and her boys took the best care of our dog. It was our first time leaving our dog at a new home and we were nervous, but Lauren offered a meet & greet first and it was clear how much the whole family loved animals and would make our boy part of their pack. Their sweet family took great care of our dog, sent us lots of pics and updates. We came back to a happy dog and he was so well taken care of and loved. Thanks for everything, a true blessing we found Lauren and fam!”
10. Mary E.
“Mary is a true dog expert! My dog can have trouble adjusting to new environments and Mary made the transition an easy one. I knew when I dropped him off he was in great hands and I wouldn't have to worry about him while I was out of town. She sent lots of photos and updates and I could tell he felt right at home. I would definitely book with Mary again.”
