“Jason was an awesome all around dog sitter! He took my puppy for a weekend of boarding on very short notice. He was very responsive and able to quickly get up to speed on my dog’s tendencies and needs. He frequently sent updates throughout the weekend and I could tell was very active and engaged, taking several trips to the dog park and providing treats and toys. His dog Timber was the perfect buddy for my pup to play with all weekend long. I’ll reach out to Jason again for boarding and would recommend to anyone in the area.”


“Ming was absolutely wonderful!!! This was the first time we have left you dog, Dale, with somebody and he can be a little insecure. Even with the 4th of July holiday chaos, we could Dale was comfortable and happy. Ming had great communication and was so accommodating. We will ABSOLUTELY use him again!!”

We had never left him with anyone other than doggy daycare and she made sure we had all our questions answered before and during his Monday-Friday stay!
