1. Stephanie L.

“Stephanie was absolutely amazing! She really put my mind at ease during my trip. The pics and videos she sent along with the text updates were so awesome. I know my boys had fun and can’t wait to schedule with her again!”




2. Mark and Vicky H.


“Recently moved to Columbus and when holidays quickly rolled up, needed somewhere to leave my dog. Found dog vacay and liked the concept versus the big business kennels. Mark and Vicky were so easy to work with, respond very quickly, professional, and very warm and friendly. I felt very comfortable leaving Buster. When I picked him up and took him home, he was so much more calm than when he would return from our old kennel (which I loved). They emailed info and pics about three times a day. I will definitely be leaving him there again, in just a couple weeks as a matter of fact!”


3. Miranda W.

“This is the first time we used this type of service. Miranda made it easy and answered all my messages in a timely manner. She sent us random pictures during the stay. My girls appeared to have a great time they came back clean and exhausted. We will be using her again in the future.”


4. Jenny B.


“Jenny was so wonderful with our fur babies. We used Jenny for a week long vacation. She gave us updates and pictures. Her home is beautiful and large enough to accommodate our larger dogs that love to play and romp and then lounge on the couch. Strongly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.”


5. Bryan B.

“Bryan & his wife took wonderful care of our pups! I so so appreciated all the pictures & updates - we will have our dogs visiting them again!!!”


6. Lauranne M.


“Laurie is certainly one of a kind!! You can sense immediately that she is completely vested in making your fur baby her top priority!! Frequent updates and pictures through texts were so reassuring and welcomed. I will not hesitate to have Laurie sit with Sophie again! ♥️?♥️”


7. Vicki C.

“We loved Vicki and her husband and so did Rudy! He ran off with her as soon as we got there and that was enough to put me at ease. He had a wonderful time and they treated him as their own. She sent pics during his stay and was in touch often, which I appreciated so much! Her home is lovely and we will 100% be bringing Rudy back for future stays! :)”


8. Tiffany T.


“Our dogs seemed to have had a great time! They came home and napped all day so they must've enjoyed playing with the other dogs haha We appreciated getting updates and pictures all weekend!”


9. Cassie Z.


“Cassie meet our dog for a meet & greet & we decided to book with her. She sent us daily updates and pictures to let us know how our dog was doing! She was very flexible and accommodating with drop off times. She even sent home special doggie treats for our pup! I highly recommend Cassie!”


10. Candy T.

“Candy was absolutely fantastic. I could tell from out first meeting that she was going to be such a good fit for our pup! She took excellent care of him during his stay, treating him like one of the family. He was her little shadow by the time we picked him up and we could tell he had really enjoyed his stay. Candy is quick to respond and provided updates during his stay. We will not hesitate to leave him in her care in the future.”


11. Janine O.


“Janine was wonderful as always! As our pup grows up, he is building a bond with her. She even taught him a new trick! Thank you for everything.”




12. Mark & Elizabeth Y.

“Mark and Betty are absolutely wonderful and treated Yeti like their own pup. We received daily updates and pictures. Yeti had so much fun he’s been sleeping since he came through the door at home!”


13. Makenzie S.

“I would absolutely recommend Makenzie! Makenzie and her fiancé were amazing with Wubbie!! They updated me with pictures of them going on fun little adventures and walks made me feel so comfortable knowing that Wubbie was safe and having a fun time with them!!!!”


14. Kelly W.

“Kelly and her family were absolutely wonderful with my sweet Myka. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that my pup was being loved in her home as much as we love her in ours. She lives in a beautiful neighborhood with minimal traffic. Kids and families everywhere was perfect Would ABSOLUTELY use agin!!”


15. Ben I.

“Ben was great with my pup! She had such a good time and he was super accommodating to her needs. Will book again!”


16. Dawne F.

“I felt so at ease leaving my pup with Dawne - she sent updates with pics and videos, which was nice. She has a great home and property and I felt very happy to have found such a nice "boarding" experience for Tucker! Would definitely rehire!”


17. Heather P.


“I cannot say enough about Heather and Daniel! We had them keep our 3 fur babies for a month while we were on vacation. They treated them as their own and we received pictures and videos everyday. It says a lot when you have a fur baby with high anxiety, yet she accepts her new caretakers without worry. We have more vacations planned and will definitely be using Heather and Daniel again. I also learned through this experience that our boxer loves babies ?”


18. Ramona B.

“Ramona was a perfect fit for our dog Bodhi. She sent me pics and updates every day and let me know how he was sleeping, eating, & playing. For a puppy/young dog that needs near constant attention when he’s awake, she did a great job of giving that to him. He’s always trying to “get into” something, but he’s the sweetest boy and wants to listen - and Ramona clearly knows her way around dogs. :) We’ll continue to use Ramona as long as she’ll have Bodhi the crazy Weimaraner in her home!”


19. Casey S.

“Casey was great with communication and I appreciated her flexibility. I felt like my dog was well taken care of!”


20. Aimee C.

“We went over seas for 14 days. Aimee kept great contact with us and sent us videos and pictures. We felt very comfortable and confident leaving our fur babies with her and her husband. I highly recommend her as a trust with and caring sitter. We will use her again for several trips we have coming up in 2025. Our gratitude is immense. Thank you! 😊”
