Kanade went above and beyond- Riley got so much fetch and cuddles in. She keeps you consistently updated with photos and summaries of the day.

Douglas is simply the BEST! My girlfriend and I left our Akita dog, Clay with him for 10 days! Throughout our vacation Douglas was in constant contact with us and sending us pictures to show how much Clay was enjoying his stay. Douglas' dog Tonka became a friend of Clays and when I came to pick Clay up, he was actually crying in the car because he knew he was leaving a great place. Its a testament to how well Douglas treated Clay during his stay. I highly recommend Douglas if you are looking for someone who genuinely LOVES dogs and will always keep in contact with you so you don't miss your pet!

Theo took such great care of Gus! I got lots of photos while I was away and Gus looked so happy in all of them and he wasn't anxious at all when I picked him up. Theo also suggested we do a meet and greet beforehand which eased my own anxiety about leaving Gus for almost a week. I would definitely book with Theo again!

Ginger was amazing with Penny! Penny can be a bit anxious when staying with new people but she made her feel right at home from the start. She sent regular updates and made sure she had plenty of exercise. I felt really comfortable leaving penny with her and would highly recommend her to others!

Jasmine is perfect. I have used her services for boarding and dog walking. Both times were good experiences. I am able to relax because Jasmine keeps me constantly updated with pictures and video. Sprinkles put my dog at ease so that was super helpful.

Marquita and Maya were absolutely amazing with my Bailey Rae! I was away for nearly a week celebrating my 60th birthday in Punta Cana, and they gave me complete peace of mind. I received daily updates, photos, and videos, and it was obvious that Bailey wasn't just being boarded—she was being loved. Maya and Bailey formed such a sweet bond that by the end of the stay, Bailey would actually whine when Maya left the room. As a dog mom, that told me everything I needed to know. Communication was excellent, updates were consistent, and Bailey looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for every single day. Honestly, my only complaint is that they may have spoiled her more than I do! 😊 I trust them completely, and they will absolutely be my first choice whenever Bailey needs boarding in the future. In fact, after hearing about my experience, I've already had a friend ask for their information. If you're looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, I highly recommend Marquita and Maya. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of my girl, Bailey Rae! ❤️🐾
