“My dog had an amazing time with Michelle and Milo - She liked it so much it seemed she didn’t want to leave! Seriously, Michelle took great care of my girl and made sure all of her needs were taken care of.”



“I am beyond thankful for the care Hillary provided my dog with this weekend. I was feeling nervious about leaving my baby somewhere new but he had a great time and I received pictures throughout his stay. I will absolutely book Hillary again and I know rocky will enjoy more sunbathing and yard chases next time! Thank you, Hillary.”


“Dewi and I have had a wonderful first experience boarding with Alex! I was out of the country for two weeks, but always could tell form the updates, photos and videos that my gentle old man was in the best of care. Especially loved seeing him get special attention on his 15th birthday! Alex has much experience with all types of dogs, and it shows. Very professional. Thank you so much!”


“My dog loves going over Matt’s house. His ears perk up and he leaps out of my car with such excitement and that’s important to me. I travel for work and leaving my dog with someone kind is so important to me. You are here looking for a sitter - I say, look no further. He will love your dog and treat your pet as his own.”


“During July 4th, we planned on going out of town for the weekend. We were impressed with Julie's rover profile and decided to contact her. We were able to meet up with her twice, once so that she could see our dog, and the second time so that Mozzie could check out her place. This was the first time since adopting him over a year ago that were had ever boarded him somewhere, so we were understandably nervous about it, but Julie proved to be a great sitter. She sent us status updates and pictures while we were away, so that we could know what Mozzie was up to. When we came to pick him up, she also helped us with tips and ideas on how to help Mozzie socialize with other dogs. We could definitely tell that Mozzie was in good hands. Definitely recommended!”


“This was a great experience for both me and Mila. Tiffany took such great care of my fur baby and sent me pictures so I knew how she was doing throughout her stay! Tiffany will definitely be my go to dog sitter moving forward.”


“Emily was great with my dog, Juniper! She sent pictures and updates everyday and was willing to work with my unique drop off and pick up situations. I am so glad that I found Emily and will be using her services in the future! Thank you so much, Emily!”


“Cindy was super responsive and treated my dog like family! He had a great time with her and I felt comfortable and confident during his stay with Cindy!”



“Damacia was fantastic! Our Goldendoodle puppy loved playing with her dogs and was very well-cared for. She came home clean, happy and tired! We’d definitely recommend and will use Damacia in the future. We are so grateful to have found her!”


“Raye was amazing with our two dogs! One in particular is very timid and she did a great job of making her feel safe and welcome. We received tons of photos and appreciated all of the updates :)”


“Jeremy took care of my dog Parker while I was out of the country for a week. I felt Parker was in excellent hands and seemed happy and rested when I got back! Jeremy was super communicative leading up to Parker’s stay as well as during it sending lots of fun videos of their strolls around the neighborhood. Would definitely use Jeremy again!”


“I felt very comfortable leaving my dog here with Ryan! She got along great with his dog which was a huge bonus for her to have a friend to play with.”



“Amanda was so awesome! She sent lots of pictures and updates and took great care of Oliver. I picked up a very happy (and tired!) dog from all the playtime and walks he enjoyed while staying at Amanda’s house!”


“Nicole was super easy to communicate with, and made sure to get as much information as possible to ensure an easy stay. She obviously cares very deeply about the pets entrusted to her care, and I wouldn't hesitate to book again.”


“Wonderful experience. Emily and Abi took such good care of our CheChe! Communication was excellent and they made sure she had everything she needed to be healthy, happy and comfortable during her week-long stay.”



“We were a little concerned when we left our puppy with Cindy as it was his first time away from us for so long. However, Cindy took real good care of him and sent us lot of pics to keep us updated. Looks like Ace had lot of fun with her. We will definitely consider her again for our next vacation. Highly recommended!”


“Cindy took great care of our Bella while we were on vacation. She sent us pictures and gave us updates every day. Before we left on our trip, we set up a meet and greet so Bella could meet everyone in the house and the other dogs. We knew she was going to be in great care while we were gone. We will definitely use Cindy again to watch our Bella girl.”


“We were so grateful for Danielle & her crew! She took great care of our pup and she was amazingly flexible and responsive. Very kind and loving and a true dog lover. I highly recommend her. Zero complaints! Only good vibes!”


“Amy is consistently the GREATEST! :) She loves my pup and it's evident that he's excited to see her. It is so nice to leave town and know your fur baby is well taken care of...”


“If I could give Nicholas 6 out of 5 stars, I absolutely would! Nicholas cared for our dog Belle for 10 days, and he was truly exceptional. Belle has separation anxiety, which can be tricky to manage, but Nicholas handled her with so much patience, compassion, and professionalism. He sent regular updates throughout her stay, which helped put our minds at ease—and from those updates (and how happy and relaxed she was when we picked her up), it was clear she felt safe and at home with him. Belle also had a blast playing with Boogie. We couldn’t have asked for a better dog boarder, and we’re so grateful to have found Nicholas!”
