“Jennifer is a very warm person and I knew Rocco would be well cared for. She was boarding a couple other dogs simultaneously, which Rocco hadn't experienced before, but they got along well and became a sort of pack. When I picked him up, Rocco had clearly missed me, but when I took him home, he seemed a little restless - I think he missed Jennifer and his new pack!”

“I was able to board my dog Tex at Leslie’s on short notice and it turned out to be a great fit. Her dog Bruce is very well trained and got along great with my dog, who’s more interested in human friends than other dogs. She was able to administer his medication with no issues and kept the pups happy and active. She’s reliable, communicative, and took great care of Tex. I will definitely board my dog with her again! :)”

“Anita was so wonderful for our dog, Bentley. Bentley is paralyzed and in diapers, so very special needs. She sent pictures and messages every day, and I was so pleased to see Bentley in perfect condition when getting back home. I say this because with a handicap dog, sores and rashes are very common, but he had none. It's like I had been taking care of him the entire time. Bentley will absolutely stay with Anita again!”

The amount of relief and excitement I feel knowing that my pup is not only cared for but spoiled and loved is amazing. My pup is excited to get there and when I come to pick her up, she doesn’t want to leave. THAT is the telltale sign of a wonderful human and home! Dolce 🩷’s Milo (and Marisol!)”

Kelly is amazing, I had some back and forth on whether I needed someone to watch my dog Sonny and she was incredibly patient and flexible with the whole process. She took amazing care of Sonny. I'm pretty picky about who he says with because he's kind of a handful. Very particular, needy dog sometimes and she was amazing with him. At the end of my trip my flight kept getting canceled and delayed and she was really patient and flexible yet again offering to keep him an extra night if needed which was really helpful while dealing with a stressful travel situation. I highly recommend Kelly, she is wonderful!

Ren took such good care of our puppy! This was our first time leaving our dog with anyone and it was a relief to know she was in good hands. Ren was highly communicative and responsive, we loved receiving photo and video updates regularly. He solved problems as they arose and kept us in the loop. Ren took the time to get to know our puppy and her specific needs/growth areas so he could address them with intention and care. Thank you very much for keeping our girl safe and happy!

Mandy & Greg were awesome with our dog! They were quick and easy to schedule and communicate with which I appreciated. You can tell they really love dogs and do this with a lot of care! We also received many photos and updates which made me feel more at ease while away from our dog. Our dog is anxious and somewhat reactive and they were very attentive to that and handled him with care. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a sitter!

Jennifer Took care of Ella my little Poodle. Two days before i was to leave for my Granddaughter's Wedding in Hawaii Ella had an Injury to her back. Jennifer who is very experienced with dogs said don't worry go to the wedding. Ella required much care two different medicines. Ella needed to stay quiet and as still as possible. Jennifer trained her to use stairs. Follow the instructions I gave her. Her whole family helped in taking care of Ella. Ella was feeling much better when i picked her up. What more could you ask for in a sitter. I recommend highly Jennifer and family for care of your special pet.
