1. Caitlin D.

“Caitlin was absolutely amazing! I was very nervous to have my dog staying somewhere I didn't know, especially because he's never been anywhere away from me for longer than a day. She was very quick to respond to my check in messages, which were quite frequent because I was so worried. She sent photo updates. She even clipped his nails for me! If I'm in need of her services again, I would definitely rebook. 10/10 recommend to anyone else!”

4. Helen & Eddie R.


“Helen and Eddie had to go the extra mile with our toy Goldendoodle this time. She was challenging and we had to be out of state for 5 days. Helen kept me constantly updated on her situation and was so gracious with all that was going on. Thank you, Helen & Eddie, for taking good care of our puppy! Highly recommend!”

“Ashley took great care of our husky, Cleo. We got so many pictures and videos which was really appreciated! Ashley was very communicative throughout the stay. We would definitely board Cleo with her again and highly recommend her services to anyone looking for doggie daycare and boarding in the area!”


7. Jeannie F.

“Jeannie is great - she encouraged me and Percy (our dog) to come check out her house and the yard before booking, and she asked detailed questions about his routine. Percy and I both liked her immediately. During his stay, we received a picture of him daily, and he looked happy and well cared for. I will definitely leave Percy with Jeannie again!”


8. June & Wade C.

“June was a fantastic sitter for our two pups while we were away! She was so communicative and sent pictures a few times every day so we could see how happy they were. One of our dogs is deathly afraid of thunderstorms and she comforted him throughout the night. She also took them on several walks, which they absolutely love and brought our pups back home when our flight was delayed and the timing became an issue. I 100% recommend June -she treated our dogs like her own!”


9. Jennifer J.

“Jennifer is amazing. Our Rhodesian Ridgeback Roxi is very picky about people. I have never seen her so comfortable at someone’s house so quick. Jennifer, pearl, and her daughter made the visit such a nice outing for her. ❤️❤️”

About: Skilled Dog Walker with 1+ year of experience in providing reliable and safe walks for a variety of breeds. Well-versed in developing positive relationship with pets and owners. I’m currently work full-time during the weekdays but I do have some time boarding dogs for the weekend. I’m always free to take a good care of dogs for weekends when their owner needs some break or out of the town! I live in a house with a huge fenced in backyard with a lot of space for the dogs to play around. I also have two dogs, they get along with any dogs! I also do enjoy taking dogs for a long walk nearby the neighborhood for some fresh air.
