“Dee and her family did such an amazing job making my us feel comfortable leaving our pups at their house. They sent regular updates and made sure the girls were comfortable during their stay. We will definitely board our dogs with her again.”


“Lori and her sweet dog Honey were so great with our golden retriever. He typically has a bit of separation anxiety and is pretty intimidated by other dogs. He walked into their house and acted like it was home. We received several photos of him while we were away. We are so blessed to have found Lori to watch our dog while we travel and would recommend her in heartbeat.”


“As usual, Carl and Linda took excellent care of our dog. They are very nice people who, you can tell love animals. They sent pictures on a regular basis. We are completely at ease having them take care of Dash while we are away. We would not hesitate to use them again in the future.”


“Nancy and Gabriel are the best! We have rebooked many times and our dogs get so excited when we pull up to drop them off. My puppy Molly jumped out of my car and ran as fast as she could into their house. Thank you very much!!”


“Nikki is a wonderful sitter! No need to hesitate, just book her if you’re lucky enough to find her with availability! Not only did she walk and play with my pup, she also trained him! I couldn’t be more pleased!”


“Shelly was so great with our dog. He can be a grumpy old dog, but all her photos showed him having the best time. I'm not sure who enjoyed their vacation more, us or the dog!”

We will definitely stay with Vikki again.”

“Katelynn is the best. Chunk loves going to see her; He knows when we turn on her street where he is going and gets really excited. He doesn't want to leave his buddies when I come to pick him up and is exhausted from playing so hard.”


“Carla and her husband were fantastic. They had us over prior to the first stay so we and Johnny were more comfortable, which was fantastic. I love their laid back vibe with having him over, letting him run around and take everything in as he needed to. I was at peace and ease on our vacation knowing he was being loved and cared for. Thank you Carla!”


“Debbie took good care of our Sassy! We really enjoyed seeing the photos and comments coming it. They let us see Sassy fitting in and acting like her normal self. Very re-assuring! A valuable enhancement to our vacation! Thanks Debbie!”

About: I have taken care of many dogs over the years & have loved every minute of it!! I treat every dog like they are my own. I love to play, cuddle, & bond with each one. It is a special time at my home. I currently stay home so I have plenty of time to play and bond with each dog and give them the quality care they need. I have a nice size fenced in yard that dogs can run around & I can play fetch with them. If at all they need to be in a crate for their safety I can do that as well.

“Sandra was so welcoming to Riley (CKCS). She had lots of beds, toys, blankets, and a great backyard! She really wanted to know how to take care of her best. We were visiting from Nebraska and going to Kennedy Space Center for the day. It was great to know she was cool and relaxing in luxury. We would highly recommend Sandra!!”

“We thoroughly enjoyed the whole process working with Cassandra and we had no doubts leaving our 14 yr old Milo with her for 4 days. Her husband Ivan was also a joy and Milo seemed to take a liking to him. She sent many pics and even gave him a bath just before we picked him up which she didn’t need to but this is just how she is! We recommend Casandra highly, you won’t be disappointed.”

“I know only dog lovers will really know how much our fury friend actually mean to us. For our family, boarding our dogs is only an absolute worse case scenario. Finding the right person to watch your dogs while on vacation really does help you relax when you know your dogs are cared for. If we are out of town and Tracey is available, we don’t have a worry in the world. Tracey is a wonderful person and takes care of our dogs like they were hers. She is super intentional in making our dogs as comfortable as possible. She even tries to keep them as close to their normal routine as possible. We would recommend Tracey to anyone who loves their dogs as much as we do. After all, they are part of the family.”
