“Milli had a great weekend with Erin & Chris! They spoiled her while she was there! She also was very relaxed even after she returned home! I would definitely recommend them and appreciate that they limit the number of dogs at one time! Thanks Erin & Chris!”
“Jessica did a great job with my girl Chloe. Her communication was great, she sent pictures and videos and updated me throughout the time Chloe was in her care. She definitely spoiled Chloe lol, she definitely went through withdrawals and was so sad the day after. I definitely recommend Jessica, she gets 5 stars from me!”
“We needed a sitter at the last minute and Clare was able to take our little dog. I feel she took wonderful care of Chewey with ample walks and plenty of attention and sent pictures of a happy dog relaxing in the sun.”
“Candace and her husband took great care of our Layla! She kept us updated with pics and it sounded like their dog got along great with ours❤️ We knew she was in great hands all weekend!”
“Lisa continues to be awesome with my dogs. She notices behavior and offers suggestions as well. Love getting all the updates and pics so I feel comfortable with her care. As far as location, being close to the airport is a huge bonus.”
“My cat Cindy is flourishing under Debora's loving care, and Cindy was already doing very well. She is being exposed to new situations at Debora's house and is thriving. It is wonderful to see her so comfortable in Debora's home.”
“Patricia was such an amazing sitter for our big Pyrenees mix, Rico! He was so content and happy while he was there and even seemed a little sad when I picked him up, ha! I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to leave Rico with her again in the future. He’s a big boy, 100+ pounds, so I also worry it will be a bit “much” to have him in a new space but she only had wonderful things to say and he fell into their routine easily. I appreciated the pictures and videos and general updates everyday! Patricia is amazing!”
“Sherilynn was great. We did a meet and greet and then set up the visit time for drop off and pick up. She kept me informed on Kira’s visit and how everything was going. Will definitely use her again.”
“My dogs were so relaxed when we came to get them after 6 days. Laurie sent pictures to keep us updated on how they were doing. This helped us enjoy our time away from them. She was so kind. I would highly recommend her!”
“Jessica took amazing care of Ernie. She sent me daily updates with lots of photos. I felt at ease leaving Ernie with her for 10 days while I was out of the country. I will 100% rebook Jessica in the future.”
“Always a wonderful time at Brinleys Big Backyard! Jess & Scott are always so phenomenal with providing updates on your pup(s) which takes some of the worry out of the whole experience. The customer service from them is equally amazing, I had both changes in travel for drop off and pickup and they adjusted our original booking no questions asked!”
“Alok always takes such good care of our dogs. We have Alok watch our pups whenever possible when we travel. We we were gone for two weeks this trip, and it's such a relief to know they're in good hands and having a ball!”
“Elyssa was AMAZING. It was my first time dropping off my doggo with her and she had the best time! My pup has some activity level needs and Elyssa was attentive to monitor those. The pictures and videos of all the fun were so helpful, Millie was absolutely spoiled with all the attention! 10/10 recommend!”
“Samantha did an incredible job looking after Fluffy, sending us delightful pictures every day that made our long overseas trip worry-free. Fluffy is so at home with Samantha that we wouldn't dream of searching for another caretaker! Samantha is truly the best.”
