Pepper came back soooo happy from Volha’s house! She had a blast hanging out with the family, and I was at ease receiving multiple photos and updates throughout the day. Will absolutely book with Volha again in the future!

Mildred and her family provided excellent care for my dog Mochi. She was also very friendly and professional in the way she related to me. I would certainly recommend her as a pet care provider.

Saori was such a great sitter for our pups (1 year old great pyrenees). She took them to the dog park in the morning for a couple of hours, helped continue our invisibile fence training, and sent us so many pics and updates throughout the weekend. I could tell how happy and comfortable our dogs were in her home and under her care. They came home so tired because they had so much fun with her and the other dogs!

Donna was great. She treated my dog like he was her own. I felt extremely confident that Guinness was being very well taken care of. Guinness came home very happy but tired from all the fun he had playing with Donna's dogs. I will definitely use Donna and her services again. I'm very happy. I found her thank you so much.

Loretta took care of our dog like he was her own for the week we needed to be away. Regular updates, lots of pictures, and lots of love. He did so much better than regular boarding and clearly had fun (both with Loretta and her dogs). We really appreciate how well cared for our big boy was, and will definitely be back!

I would highly recommend Nicole to anyone looking for dog day care or boarding She communicates well and goes the extra mile to make your pet feel comfortable and happy Not only did Buddy have a Christmas themed neck scarf but also a Christmas toy! She clearly loves dogs and is proficient and skilled in all aspects of their care We had total peace of mind while we were away and she sent us some beautiful pictures of Buddy!

Jeff and Bruce went above and beyond in caring for Clover, keeping us updated the entire time, which gave us such peace of mind. It was clear he was in great hands, relaxing and enjoying their home. Pickup and drop-off were seamless, and their thoughtful handwritten note in Clover’s bag was such a sweet touch! We’ll definitely book with them again for a longer stay!

I cannot overstate how amazing Cherissa and her family were. They loved and took care of my dog like he was their own. I got pictures and updates every day and she was so flexible which helped us out so much. I was nervous to leave my dog with anyone because we’ve had bad experiences with boarding facilities but he was so happy the entire time he was with her and came back happy and exhausted from 4 days of playing. I would absolutely bring him back to her if I ever needed a sitter again. She is the best!!!

Janice was the absolute best when we left our mini dachshund Bean with her for a few days over the Christmas holiday. Bean is kind of nervous at times and requires a lot of human love and care which Janice and family provided in abundance. Usually Bean gives me the cold shoulder when I leave him overnight but he was not mad at all when I picked him up. The property is beautiful and Janice was extremely responsive including sending pictures! Would absolutely recommend Janice for anyone needing someone to care for their dogs. She treated him like family and we were so grateful. Thank you Janice!

My dog had a great time with Jennifer, Thomas and their kids. They’ shared photos of her getting petted on the couch and going on walks. She was exhausted when she came home after having had a very fun day with this lovely family.

I cannot recommend Stephen enough. He took amazing care of our Buddy while we were away. He communicated and sent us videos and updates every day. He was cautious when introducing Buddy to the other dogs in his care and we had a meet and greet prior to the stay which I appreciate, he goes above and beyond to make sure the dogs in his care are compatible to keep all dogs safe. I look forward to using him in the future and I know Buddy will too. You can see that dogs in Stephens care are treated as his own and that is so comforting when leaving your dog in his care.

Nicole is great and once again gave my dog Lulu a mini vacation at her place. Lulu had fun with her and other guest dogs and chilled at baby pool with sprinklers. She had a great time as usual at Nicole’s. Thx so much!

Samantha and Michael were wonderful to our dog, Pete. They were super communicative and kind. They shared lots of pictures and I knew Pete was in the best hands. They took extra care to search him for ticks after they found one on him, which was really a next level thing for them to do. They clearly care about the dogs in their care and we highly recommend them.
