Stephanie was great with my high maintenance Pom. I received updates throughout the day with cute pictures. Only problem I ran into was my dog ran to Stephanie refusing to leave when I went to pick her up. I can tell my dog had a blast!

Whitney took great care of our dog for the first time while we were away for two weeks. She communicated very well with pictures the entire time which gave us peace of mind. Our dog really enjoyed being at the park, and was comfortable at her home. We will definitely be back.

Bruno had such a good stay with Felice and Ken. It really seemed like he felt comfortable with them and he came home just as happy as ever. He has a little separation anxiety, but he settled right in with the family and their dogs. He had a great time running in their yard and being spoiled with attention and treats. She kept us updated throughout the stay so we knew he was doing well. Would highly recommend them and we plan on bring Bruno back again!

I felt that Winston was very well cared for with Margaret. He was comfortable and had free reign to go in & out onto the back porch with a doggy door to get some sunshine. He was comforted when needed. He went along to sporting events and enjoyed the walks around the fields. I would definitely use Margaret again.

Amit took awesome care of my fur baby! My dog didn't want to leave as he was enjoying the yard. Amit sent me pics and was responsive and accommodating. I'm always nervous when I've to travel but definitely was a bit at ease knowing my dog was in great care.

Our pup loves it here and was getting so excited when we drove down her driveway for his second stay. I couldn't ask for more than just a second home while we're away. Thank you, Ashley!

Our dog Mayla stayed with Lakesha and Marshal and their kids over the holidays. We could not have asked for a better place for our pup. They took great care of Mayla, spoiled her and even trained her when she misbehaved in the beginning. A super nice experience and we will for sure be back! Thank you Lakesha and Marshall and a Happy New Year.

Peyton, her husband and two pups were absolutely wonderful hosts to Venus. The pups were playful and got along well with my dog. She returned home a very happy and tired puppy!

Kristy and her family were really good to my little guy and made him feel comfortable. Daily updates showed a relaxed senior dog getting all the care he needed. Will use again.

Our dog had the best time. Brittanie & Ryan sent us daily photos and updates. They took wonderful care of our dog. We will be using them again for boarding and for walking. So comforting to know our “baby” is in good hands.

Rudy put me at ease the first time we talked about my shy rescue dog. He has experience coaxing shy dogs to relax. He was very flexible with drop off/pick up times. Hoping to book him for a future stay.

I do feel like my pup, Ranger, was well cared for during his stay at Brittany's. He was plenty energetic and himself when I picked him up, so nothing seemed awry. Brittany has a sizable yard that's large enough to accommodate almost any dog and has a kind demeanor that I'd imagine would make any dog comfortable. My only gripe was that I wish Brittany was a little more communicative during Ranger's stay. Some more pictures or updates would have been nice. However, I do believe that Brittany would have provided them if I asked or communicated up-front that we enjoy the puppy updates daily or more. All-in-all, I certainly feel comfortable leaving either or both of our dogs in Brittany's care again.
