We very much appreciated Emily! I was very nervous to leave our two dogs with a new person as we have one older dog who requires extra attention due to a medical condition. Emily met with us beforehand to go over our routine and then I sent her my "instructions" before we left. She followed their routine and kept us up to date on the dogs. It helped to know the dogs were well taken care of - glad to have found someone to watch our dogs when we have to be away!

Aidan was great! I left my anxious hound dog, Dean, in his care over a long weekend. He was very responsive, and proactive about sending updates with adorable pictures. Dean does not warm up to everyone, but was so sad when Aidan left and was stuck with me again. I'll be using him again in the future.

Rachel was amazing! She helped with our dogs while we were gone for the weekend, and both dogs (and our cat) loved her and were so excited to see her. She stayed in communication with us the entire weekend and sent great pictures with updates. She followed all the instructions we left. Both dogs have terrible separation anxiety, but they didn’t seem to miss a beat while we were gone. Would definitely recommend!

I can’t say enough great things about Melanie! She took such amazing care of my Frenchie while I was away. From the moment we met, I could tell she genuinely loves dogs and knew exactly how to handle my pup’s quirky personality and needs. I received regular updates, photos, and videos, which totally put my mind at ease. My Frenchie came back happy, relaxed, and maybe even a little spoiled—in the best way! I’m so grateful for the love and attention they gave. I’ll absolutely be booking with them again!
