“We went on a 16 day trip out of the country and we knew Marley was in safe and caring hands. We got regular videos which reassured us he was happy and having a great time with the other dogs. The best review was when we were eating at an outdoor restaurant patio and suddenly he started to wag his tail like crazy! I was trying to think of who would cause that type of reaction, and it was Shannon and her husband! We will definitely be going back to Shannon.”

“They took very good care of our dog Poppy!! Great communication and really cute photos! They are watching her again in a few weeks, would definitely recommend!!”

“Hope's stay with Erica and Thomas left her exhausted and happy. I have never seen my dog look sad when I picked her up from somewhere but she was definitely not ready to leave them. It was obvious through her demeanor and how the kids came running down from school just to give her a hug goodbye that she was well cared for during her stay. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a great family to leave their dog with and will be leaving Hope with them again soon.”

“Laura was so wonderful! She made our family and our pup so comfortable and sent pictures and updates throughout our trip. We were so happy knowing that our dog got to be part of Laura’s family while we were away. We’d highly recommend Laura!”

“Sherry has sat for my dog a couple of times in her home and walked my dog as well. She is very clearly a dog person. Sherry is very thorough with making sure she knows your dogs schedule and care needs and sends updates while you’re gone. I will definitely use Sherry again in the future!”

“Thank you Melisa for taking such good care of our dogs while we were away on vacation. I loved the updates and pictures you sent along the way. It meant a lot because I did miss them! Knowing that you have vet tech experience also made me feel that they were in great hands! I am so happy they got to play with your children and other dgos....and they definately were tired when we took them home. Thank you again for opening your lovely home and big yard to our pups...I don't think they missed us for a minute:)”

“Overall, Holly was an exceptional host to my dog slate and she definitely went above and beyond. What I loved is that Holly set up a meet and greet and when my dog slate and I arrived there, you could tell that she had a genuine love and affection for dogs and cared for them just like family. Not only was the initial meeting great for my dog and Holly but Holly and I were able to build good rapport that gave me a sense of security in knowing that I could trust her with my fur baby. I enjoyed that Holly and her family have a beautiful property and beautiful surrounding environments that any dog who hasn't had that experience to play in a lot of land or to go hiking in the woods would find themselves in store for a great time and new adventures. Additionally my dog got to meet alof of Holly very kind family and friends and had a great time socializing. My dog's Slate is six years old, and I told holly that I had been working on some stuff with him and she was very accommodating to that and very understanding to any of the needs that my dog has. Slate ended up staying with Holly for three days and during those three days, Holly made sure that I had no shortage of pictures to receive and updates from my dog. She made sure that I was okay with the updates that she was giving me and I assured her that I loved the communication and encouraged it as any pet parent would, I just wanted to make sure that my puppy was okay and that he was treating Holly and her family well. Again I could not recommend Holly highly enough because the experience was amazing and my dog came back just as happy, if not more than when he left because of all the experiences they took him on. Holly and her family are communicative, sweet, friendly, and overall, just a great family to leave your fur baby with and have complete trust that they will be in good hands.”

“I had a family wedding to go to and wanted to find a safe and comfortable place to leave Winston, my young dorgi (half dachshund, half corgi) who had never been away from me since I was lucky enough to get him. Laura and her family turned out to be the perfect people and place. With a beautiful, safe home out in the country, a deck and fenced in yard where he could play, a open-plan house where he was visible at all times, Laura’s place was perfect. And the bonus: three little girls who adored him and lavished attention upon him, much to his delight. Laura, herself, was wonderful, caring, professional, delightful. She took him on long walks which he loved, texted me photos and updates on this progress during the stay, saw to his every need and even made some recommendations to me as to feeding bowls which might slow his eating down (he snarfs up his food in seconds!). I was afraid he wouldn’t want to come home. But I think he knows he can go back and stay in this home away from home which he will definitely be doing the next time I need to go away without him. I can’t tell you the peace of mind that all this brought me, knowing that he was happy and being well-cared-for and loved.”

Ellen N.

“We love Julius and so does our pup! We've used his family so many times and each time has been easy and no problems at all. It's so nice having peace of mind that our pup is loved and well cared for.”

Amanda C.

“Samantha was such a wonderful friend to our baby Clover while we were on vacation. She sent lots of pics and updates and it was clear they both really enjoyed each other's company. She was also extremely flexible and accommodating when we needed to extend Clover's stay a few days, and we really appreciated that! Samantha will definitely be our go-to when we need a sitter in Westbrook!”

About: "The happiest days are filled with wagging tails! Every furry guest is treated like a member of the family. Expect endless playtime, cozy snuggles, and detailed updates (including adorable photos!) throughout your pet's stay." I am self employed, work when I want and as much as I want all depending on my pups & your pups happiness & needs! I have a large home that is easily sectioned or gated, a large fenced yard and a quiet neighborhood close to the beach for walks

“Mary Jo took excellent care of Dexter!! All of his medicines and quirky maintenance items were taken care of. It was so nice to come back to him knowing he was well cared for.”
