Christle took great care of Peabody! At the meet and greet, she gave lots of information and answered all of my questions- I felt so comfortable leaving Peabody with her! Peabody and her dogs got along very well and had a great time playing together. When I picked Peabody up, he was so relaxed and happy. It was obvious that Christle took great care of him. Needless to say, I will be going to Christle again for any of Peabody’s boarding needs.

I would highly recommended Ifan! This was the first time I have ever boarded my dog Charli and he regularly updated me about how Charli was doing and provided Charli with great outdoor/indoor playtime with other pup friends as well. Ifan himself was very responsive to any messages I sent him. If I ever need to board Charli again I will definitely do so with Ifan and would suggest others to do the same.

We highly recommend Ricky for your pet-sitting needs! He took great care of our older Yorkie. He provided daily updates and feedback, along with photos. The feeding instructions and medication were followed without any issues, and our little one returned happy and healthy. Excellent stay :-)

Kathryn and Jeremy took excellent care of our dog Max while we were away for a week. From our first meeting with them, it was clear that they had experience taking care of dogs and were very understanding and knowledgable about our dogs unique care needs. We felt so comfortable leaving Max with them and when we picked him up it was clear he LOVED his time there and can't wait to see them again! Thank you Kathryn and Jeremy for taking such great care of Max!

Haoran was absolutely amazing! She took care of my pup for five days and was incredibly attentive and patient the whole time. I really appreciated how she took the time to observe and learn about my dog’s personality to help her feel more comfortable. Communication was excellent throughout, and my very active dog got tons of exercise — she even went on a two-hour hike that she absolutely loved! When my pup ran out of food, Haoran kindly provided her own without hesitation. My dog can be pretty anxious, but Haoran and her husband showed such patience and genuine care. I’m so grateful for her passion for animals and will definitely be booking with her again!

Sean and Jill were great! They helped me very last minute and although I have a semi aggressive dog, they were very welcoming and not discouraged at all. Their house is perfect for dogs as they have a small doggy door. My dog followed Sean right into his house upon seeing him outside so he must have felt a good vibe haha. They also responded very quickly to messages and offered to feed him the same food they feed their dogs. Would 100% recommend them!!!

About: I grew up surrounded by pets, and they’ve always been a vital part of my life. To me, a pet isn't just a guest they are a member of the family. I treat every animal I care for with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. When your furry friend is with me, they’ll be welcomed into a warm, safe home where they’re truly part of the pack. I am at home, there is always someone in the home. The pets will not be left unattended. I provide great services to all pets. Always clean water bowls and measured meals. I take them on as many walks as needed. I treat all pets as my own and give them cuddle/scratches.

I dropped off my two dogs with Tiffany and felt very comfortable. She is so calm and good with animals, that I knew, even though one of my dogs is very skittish, it would work out. My dogs played with her gentle lab and seemed to thoroughly enjoy the week. The fenced in yard and that Tiffany is home during the day are huge pluses. Definitely will use Tiffany in the future.

I absolutely recommend that Kristina takes care of your dog(s) because that is what she does, she cares for them. Jazmine has stayed with Kristina twice now. We have had nothing but great interactions and Jazmine has come home in a relaxed state each time! It is so wonderful to know that Kristina emits such a calm and relaxed energy while we are away from the most vital piece to our family, our fur-baby! Not only is Kristina wonderful with Jazmine but she is flexible and so thoughtful. We missed our connecting flight and came home a day later than expected. Kristina was so accommodating and did not mind keeping Jazmine one extra night. Also, Jazmine has had many food allergies in the past and Kristina was incredibly aware. She had texted me asking if the treats that she made (especially for Jazmine) would be acceptable to her diet. The treats we perfect and she sent us home with the recipe and the remaining treats. Kristina is a gem and a great find for a dog sitter!

About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life, and I currently own 4. All of my dogs are of different sizes, so I am capable of caring for any sized dog. Out of all of the dogs i owned I’ve experienced multiple Different personalities with them all. I understand it will take time for your dog to adapt and I will take the necessary steps towards building a relationship with your dog. I would care for them like I would my own. I have sited dogs for family members for years. Great with training and ensuring frequent potty breaks. I’ve learned how to calm hyper or anxious dogs. If anything were to occur when under my care where the the dog felt unsafe or uneasy I would notify you immediately.
