1. Emily S.
“Emily took great care of Kuro! He can be anxious and finicky at times, yet I really felt like he enjoyed his time in her care. He got to roam around and spend time playing in the river and play with other dogs as well as her adorable kids! When I picked him up, he has been tuckered out and not at all anxious (like he sometimes gets when I am out of town for a couple days). Overall would absolutely use Emily’s dog sitting services again and I highly recommend her!”
2. Tiffany H.
“I had to leave my boy for an extended period of time and was a lot more at ease about it knowing he is in such good hands with Tiffany. I received regular updates and her communicate is very prompt. Duke always has a great time staying with her and the other dogs. She goes above and beyond to make your fur baby and the doggy parents feel comfortable.”

“Boarding at Raegan's went wonderfully for us! She agreed to take time to meet ahead of our boarding, to see her home and meet her pets. Then when our flight was delayed at the end of our dog's board, she was very flexible and agreed for us to pick up later than planned. I appreciate that Raegan was as communicative and flexible with plans.”

Sierra is our go to sitter for sure!”
