“Melissa took amazing care of my dog, ensuring he had plenty of exercise, play time, and snuggles during his weekend stay. Her place is set up perfectly for hosting pets, and she is very warm and knowledgeable. I received frequent updates throughout my dog's stay. I would not hesitate to work with Melissa again!”


“I knew from our first meeting that Nathan and Jackie were the right choice to take care of my Sophie for the 2 weeks I would be in Japan. And I was right. They sent daily pictures/videos of: Sophie playing with their dogs Reilly and Bailey; the kids walking, holding, and loving on Sophie; and photos of some well-deserved chill time. We had excellent communication for the duration of Sophie’s stay with them. Nathan contacted me about a week into her stay to report an issue that he felt needed reviewed by her vet. I agreed and Nathan made the appointment, then took her for a vet visit. The vet also agreed with Nathan and gave Sophie 2 prescriptions. Nathan paid for the vet visit and meds himself (since I was not available at the time). For the next week, Nathan and Jackie gave Sophie the meds prescribed and reported back to me how she was doing with her medical issue. I am so thankful for Nathan’s keen observation and proactive stance on Sophie’s health. The vet visit and daily meds were more than they signed up for and they just took care of it all. I will definitely be taking Sophie back for future boardings, and may even have to take her for occasional visits so she can play with the dogs and the kids!”


“De’Aysia was great with our pup! He came home happy, and she did a phenomenal job of keeping us up to date with how he was doing while we were gone. 10/10 recommend! Milo will be back to see his puppy cousins soon!”


“First time using Rover and Chelsey B., couldnt be more pleased with our experience. Our dogs were very loved and taken care of. She gave us a great peace of mind with updates during their stay as well. Highly recommend.”


“Lola and her family did a great job caring for Josie. She was honest, and so sweet and gentle with my furbaby. I appreciate she was flexible with a meet and greet prior to boarding. I highly recommend Lola. Convenient, reasonable and very honest.”


“Jenelle & her family took incredible care of our senior dog Rosie. We were visiting from out of town and looking for a local stay for our dog. Jenelle was great at coordinating with us. We started off with a meet & greet in her yard with her dogs. She let Rosie explore the yard and then meet the dogs one at a time. By the time we were on our way, we felt confident that our dog was going to have the best time ever. Jenelle sent lots of pictures and updates that showed that our dog wasn't just visiting, she was having an epic vacation of her own. Jenelle's yard is huge and set up for dogs to explore, play & nap. We brought Rosie's bed with her but it seems like she was happiest parked on the couch with the family. We have young kids as does Jenelle and we were so touched by the extra attention Rosie got. Overall, the stay was a great mix of active play time, relaxation, and lots of love. We would definitely book Jenelle for another stay in the future!”


“Khanh was very accommodating with us, as we decided a last minute extension to our trip. Without any hesitation, she accepted. Peanut absolutely loved her and enjoyed her vegan dishes she provided! I wish we could give her more than 5 stars. Thank you Khanh for taking such great care of our Peanut while we were away! We will definitely be using her for future trips.”


“Kristine was great, I needed her in a bind and she was able to accomodate me last minute. She ia super responsive and sent updates and pictures while watching my dog. I would use her again!”


About: I have 3 small rescued dogs and they love other dogs and enjoy playmates. We have a doggie door that they can access the yard from 6 AM to 9 PM. The yard is secure and the fence is 4 feet high. Your dog will get played with, loved and spoiled in my care. I do not anticipate any problem with my daily or weekly routine. I would not accept an assignment if I knew I was too busy that week. Your pet comes first with me. Your fur baby will be in great hands. We love dogs, and our dogs are very friendly and enjoy other dogs. I never get tired of giving attention to any animal.

“September did a wonderful job with our dog Digory. It was so nice knowing he was being so well taken care of and having such a great time while we were away!
