“We felt very comfortable leaving KodaBear with Dawn and her family. We received pictures and texts confirming he was doing well. Their daughter allowed Koda to snuggle at night! I think Koda misses Rambo!! We highly recommend this family!”
“Gerrie and her family did a great job watching my pup over Christmas. Koa was a bit sleepy the day I brought him home, so he must have had fun during his stay running around with her kids and dogs.”

“Craig was so kind and gracious to Cooper! He sent multiple pictures of our pup per the request. Cooper was so loved and had a great time. Would rebook!”
“Chetoya was great! I needed someone last minute and she was anle to work with me. My dog can be a little antisocial, she's an older dog of 13yrs, and Chetoya was able to bring her out if her shell. She even had her playing with her own dog. Chetoya was very responsive and sent updates with pics. I highly recommend!”
“Natalie took great care of my dog over the weekend, she is very responsive and provided regular updates with photos and videos. We were at ease during my dog’s stay. Will definitely be using her again.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch my dog while I was out of town. Charlotte is the sweetest and went above and beyond with her care. She stayed in constant contact and sent pics throughout the stay as well. If you’re looking for someone to love your fur baby as their own, charlotte is the one! I will definitely be using her for stays in the future. Thanks again :)”

“Queeny took real good care of our friend Luka. She took him to walks and gave us updates everyday on how he's been doing. So we were not worried at all. I know he has good time with Queeny and her family. We can say now Luka really found another home for him when we are traveling.”
“Janelle was phenomenal with my dog Roxy. She sent the cutest photos, took great care with my dog’s special quirks, and even helped when my dog had a skin problem. She is a strong communicator and treated my pup as her own. I will rebook in an instant. Cannot recommend her enough! Her space is clean and cozy and her neighborhood is full of nature to explore”
“I had an amazing experience with Kadi! She was incredibly friendly, reliable, and showed so much love to my dog. Her communication was great and she sent regular photo updates which we loved. My dog came home happy and ready for a nap. I would refer her to anyone!”
“Abbey was wonderful! I’m always nervous about leaving our sweet Goldendoodle with people but I felt completely comfortable during our time away and knew Abbey was taking the best care of him. Ford is pretty great too!”

Megan was wonderful with my senior girl Olive Oyl! She was so attentive and caring, kept me updated the whole time, and I could tell Olive Oyl was comfortable and happy. It's hard trusting someone with an older dog, but Megan made it easy. Would absolutely book again — highly recommend!
Rachael treated Monty like a member of her family! He got all the play time and snuggles he could ever want. We had full trust in Rachael to watch Monty for 12 days while we were in Europe. She was very communicative and provided lots of pictures. Will definitely leave Monty with her in the future!
This was our first time boarding our two dachshunds. I was nervous at first but Nancy allowed us to meet her & her dog Betty before booking. Her dog Betty is a gentle giant and was nice to my dogs. Nancy did a great job at providing updates and sending us pictures. We will definitely be booking with Nancy in the future. Thank you!
Gerrie and her family took wonderful care of Diego. From the pictures they sent regularly, I could tell he was made part of their family during his 8 day stay. Gerrie was flexible with dropoff and pickup times. I will definitely be asking them to care for Diego on my next trip!
