“Amy has watched both of my pups numerous times. She has always done a great job taking care of them and sending pictures throughout the day so we know they’re enjoying themselves. Recently, we had to make the difficult decision to put our oldest dog to sleep before we had a scheduled booking with her. She was incredibly understanding and immediately ensured we received a full refund. The first time we took our other pup to stay with her after losing her older brother, Amy went above and beyond taking care of her for us. When we decided to pick her up a day early because we were missing her, Amy was thoughtful enough to refund us for the day even though we had no intention of asking for a refund. I would 100% recommend Amy if you want a quality, trustworthy sitter for your dogs.”


“Jennifer was such a wonderful host for my Simba! She made him feel very comfortable and treated him as if he was one of her own dogs. She gave me a tour of her home and backyard where Simba would be spending most of his time to ensure he would be in a safe and loving environment. She has three dogs that were very playful and welcoming to my pup and they seemed to have a great time playing together. Additionally, Jennifer sent pictures throughout the day keeping me updated on Simba and how comfortable and happy he was. I will absolutely have Jennifer sit for Simba again!!”


“I can’t say enough nice things about Christine! She is sweet as can be and you can truly tell she loves animals! My fur baby was in the best hands and I plan on using Christine any time I need doggy boarding. Thank you so much for your wonderful care!”



“Cyndi is so awesome! Belle loves going over there and it's really satisfying to know that she's in great hands with Cyndi. She's great at communicating and updating you on the stay. The peace of mind she offers is invaluable.”

Our dog is prone to environmental allergies and Matt was very communicative when he saw our dog getting itchy- he helped provide Benadryl with our confirmation and made sure to keep a close eye on our dog while we were away! Thank you very much!!”


“This was my first time ever using Rover, and Amy and Grant made it such a great experience! They were absolutely amazing with my dog Oscar—super communicative, informative, and clearly very caring. I got regular updates and photos, and it looked like Oscar was having the best time. He came home happy, healthy, and clearly well-loved. I could tell they treated him like part of the family. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again. Highly recommend!”


“Myrna was great with our dog Archie!! She's very experienced with watching dogs and her house seems like a great environment for dogs to have a great time. I'd highly recommend her!”


“Raye is the best! She was very responsive and kept me frequently updated. She took Hugo everywhere, the park, drive in cinema, on a hike. I think now I’ll have to level up my play game. Also, she was pretty flexible, my flight was canceled and that was very helpful.”


“Our first boarding experience was seamless! We received updates no less than once a day and our Skye was well taken care of. I would recommended Sthephanie to anyone for excellent furbaby care!”
