“I can’t say enough kind words about shell and her team. I had a couple day trip and had to leave my puppy Honey behind and was super nervous about how she would do without me. Turns out she didn’t even care that I left! She walked straight in and started playing right away. Shell’s house is like a safe haven for her and for good reason. Shell treats every dog like their her own and even treats me like I’m family, always offering me coffee or Cheerios. You can really tell that the dogs have the time of their life and Honey is soooo much more well behaved when I pick her up. She’s gotten so good at all her tricks thanks to Shell. If you need a dog sitter please look no further, Shell is the best you can find and is truly one of the best humans I’ve ever met. Thank you Shell!”


“She was so awesome! We didn’t worry about our dog at all while she was watching him. She sent lots of pictures and I could see he was having a great time! We will definitely book again when we are in the area and we would recommend! Thank you so much Maryorie! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”


“Rosalyn has been taking care of our 4 mos old puppy 4 days/week! He loves Rosalyn, her dog and kids so much that he does not want to leave when he is picked up! He literally cries in the car ride home. Thank you for taking such excellent care of our pup Rosalyn!”


“Dana and Mark were a real lifesaver today. With very little notice the were able to watch my little buddy when I got stuck in Denver. Always keep me apprised of how Jack is doing. I really appreciate their professionalism and care for my Jack.”


“I can tell that my dog enjoyed his day with Tanaisa and her dog Loki. He walked right into the gate when I dropped him off for his second day. He got plenty of walks and socialization. I will definitely book with her again, even though it’s a total of 40 minutes detour for me, it’s worth it because Tanaisa took great care of Dante.”


“Becky was wonderful with our dog Merlin. As this was his first time staying with her, she sent lots of photos and updates on how he was doing. He settled in well and did great with the other dogs and with Becky’s daughter. I was pleased to have a warm and loving home environment for Merlin to stay in while I had to be away for work.”
