If I could leave 10 out of 5 stars I would! Amanda was wonderful and we could not have asked for a better experience. Besides being kind, gentle, and thoughtful, she was very caring and gave our dog lots of attention. We had multiple pictures and videos, which were so nice. She took Oliver on walks every day, not down the street, but to a park every day. She also fed him home cooked chicken (with my approval) to try to get him to eat (picky eater!). I know Oliver had a great time and it was so nice not worrying about our little boy! We will definitely use her again! Thank you Amanda!

Kayte takes really good care of Boogie. She is caring and very responsive. I love the grooming service she offers. I feel relaxed when Boogie is with her because I know she is taking very good care of him! I would definitely recommend! You won’t be disappointed.

Katie and her family did a wonderful job of making our Stella feel at home. She kept us updated with pictures and texts the entire time. It made us feel good that they said they would miss her when she left. Would definitely recommend and use again!

Jessica was great! We got pictures every day and a video too! We could tell she made our old girl comfortable and happy in a new environment. She also has a one level house with no stairs to the backyard which is great for dogs with arthritis. We will definitely use her again next time we go out of town!

Doug has cared for our little doggie, Freddy, a couple of times now. Freddy has diet restrictions that make for extra work, so we are very happy with Doug's attention and care. Great dog sitter! :)

This was our first boarding experience with our very first puppy and it was GREAT! Brittney was very responsive. She sent pictures 2-3 times daily. Picked and dropped off Apollo for us. This was very last minute and we appreciate being able to find such an awesome sitter. Not to mention we were able to learn new things about our puppy through this experience. We recommend 100%.

Laura was amazing! She agreed to keep my dog at the last minute when I was scrambling for care. I was nervous since this was my first time using someone for boarding, but Laura quickly eased my fears. Murphy had a blast and came home happy and exhausted. Will definitely use her in the future!

Harold went so far above and beyond in keeping my 2 girls. They are in their senior years and have entered the high maintenance stage of life. He handled them with grace and kindness. He sent lots of pictures and they got lots of love while visiting him. The hey stayed for a super long trip too so he really did a great job!!

If I could give Amanda 10 stars, I would! Amanda went above and beyond to make our dogs at home, take care of them and make sure they had fun! She was always sending pictures and giving us updates, which I absolutely loved. To know our dogs were in good hands made our vacation much more enjoyable. She took care of our senior dog and made sure she was comfortable, while she took our one year old playful pup on walks, to the park, and played with him in her beautiful, big back yard. I can't say enough good things about her and HIGHLY recommend her! VERY nice person and a SUPERB dog sitter!

Laura was amazing. We received pictures regularly of our pup living his best life. He was so happy at pick up but I think he may be sad to be home and not having fun with his other dog buddies. 😆
