Boarding with Ellen was outstanding. We had a family emergency that made taking our large dog with us impossible. He’s five-years old and had never been away from home - I am sure it was challenging for him. While not aggressive or disobedient, at about 120lbs he can be intimidating. Ellen was clearly very comfortable with him during our meet and greet visit and was very confident he’d be fine with her. He absolute was! She made him very at home on her beautiful farmette with her pack of critters. They all looked clean and loved. I noted her calmness with the dogs and confidence in their interaction under her watchful eye. The dogs have plenty of space to run and socialize. She made sure we gave her his “regular” food and medications, and verified other foods he would be allowed to have. She sent regular updates and photos during his stay. Each action shot was accompanied by a thoughtful narrative of the photo. We really enjoyed pictures of his quiet time, napping with the other dogs in her home was comforting. They all looked content. We needed an extra day of boarding because of the unpredictability of our travel and Ellen made it so easy. Our dog made new friends and we did too.

Outstanding service from the moment we first contacted Jeannie to the time we picked up our precious pup! She made sure she addressed any concerns we might have and send us daily updates and pictures. We are so glad we found a true dog loving family and we will for sure to use her again. Thanks so much ! I wish I could leave more than a 5 star review

I am so very pleased with Cheryl and her furry family. Cheryl was very meticulous about assessing my dogs needs and care right from the start. My dog is quite skidish about new dogs, new environments and new people. This was no challenge for Cheryl. She was able to ease my dogs insecurities right away and allowed her 2 dogs time to meet our little girl on her terms and very cautiously. Cheryl was flexible with my drop off and pick up times and communicated with me throughout the entire stay with updates and photos. She also provided my dog with medications for her skin and gave us great feedback on how I may be able to better care for her allergies. Cheryl is a very responsible dog owner and it certainly carries into her ability to care for my dog as well. My dog was happy and stress free while in Cheryl's care and I will definitely be using her again! If you're looking for a caretaker that will provide top notch care and treat your furry companion with the love and respect they deserve, then look no further and reach out to Cheryl.

Nadia is amazing! She is so flexible with having to make adjustments to the schedule and even goes out of her way to help with pick up/ drop off (which have been such a blessing with having a young baby). She communicates very well and provides picture updates during my dogs stay. Will definitely be using her again!

Annette is the best! I actually hesitate to leave a review because I don't want all of her spaces to fill up! Your dog will be welcomed into the fold and Annette will ask you about - and then pay attention to - their needs. She has been fostering for so long, she has literally seen everything – and can deal with everything. Teddy had a great time, and I left with new insights into her behaviors. Annette is a gem.

Charlie was an incredible dog sitter for my Boston Terrier, Huckleberry. From the start, he was kind, professional, and accommodating. I appreciated the regular photo updates of Huckleberry enjoying his time, especially at the park! Huckleberry loved hanging out with Charlie's two dogs, who were the perfect playmates. Even when I was late for pickup, Charlie was super understanding and flexible. It’s clear that he genuinely cares about the dogs he watches, and I felt completely at ease knowing Huckleberry was in good hands. I highly recommend Charlie and will definitely book him again!

My dog had a great time! Be prepared for giving a bath after they stay here because they spend a lot of time outside, but he loved every minute of his time there!
