Due to flight issues I had to extend the stay for a day. April was kind enough to accommodate the last minute add on. Pooh was happy at pick up.

Very happy with your service Jessica! Macie wears a special tracking collar so we don't ever lose her. But we can see she must have had good walks and play time with 30k steps the first day she 31k the 2nd day. The only other time we boarded her was at a professional kennel where she had a max of 800 steps for one day. So huge difference. Thank you! The pics were greatly appreciated as well! Would definitely recommend you.

Eric is a great pet sitter. As soon as I met him and saw his house and yard, I just felt so calm. I knew he would take good care of my dog. She did have a bad first night but Eric took care of it with aplomb and empathy. I highly recommend Eric.

Giselle and her kids took care of my Peaches well while I was out of town for 2 days. When I picked Peaches up, she wanted to stay with them longer, which indicated that she enjoyed her time with them. I will definitely leave my Peaches with them again in the future.

Sonia was great to work with and did an amazing job looking after Shelby while I was on vacation. This was Shelby’s first time staying in another home and I was a little stressed leaving her but felt confident she was in good hands. Sonia kept me updated on Shelby’s stay with messages and photos and will be my first call for future stays!

We had a great experience boarding our dog with Jackie! She was very thorough and respectful of all of our dog's needs and preferences. We received updates and pictures a few times a day, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was having a wonderful time—especially having Jackie's dogs as playmates. She was very capable and attentive, and we felt very comfortable leaving our dog in her care. Marty is looking forward to staying at Jackie's again!

We rarely leave Ollie with anyone but family so were quite nervous to leave him with someone new, especially only a month or so after a knee surgery for him. Tina reassured us he would be well taken care of and was always easy to reach when we wanted to see how he was doing. He came home happy and well cared for. We are happy to have found Tina and will definitely reach out to her again if we need someone to care for Ollie.
