“This is our first time leaving our puppy with anyone especially for multiple days. Cindy was really responsive and flexible as we figured out our plans. Kuma had some playmates while he stayed and came home tuckered out. I loved the vidoes and the photos she sent to us, letting us know he is outside getting exercise and having lots of fun! I am glad to have found Cindy for Kuma and the family!”
“We booked Natalie for my elderly parent’s young beagle. It was their first time boarding a pet so they were nervous and didn’t quite understand the rules of drop-off & pick-up, etc. ( although I explained to them in detail) Natalie was understanding and responsive. She was kind and communicative, often sending several pictures and updates on their dog. Thank you, Natalie, for taking care of Schatzi and extending an extra day when we needed it. I know my mother was persistent with her constant messages, even when I kept assuring her the dog was fine & to leave you alone, lol! We appreciate your help!!!”
“We are so grateful to have found Kelly! She took such wonderful care of our dog while we were away, treating him like part of her own family. Communication was excellent — we received regular updates with photos that put us completely at ease. It was clear from the moment we met Kelly that she genuinely loves animals and has a real gift for connecting with them. Our dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust Kelly again for future stays!”
“Louise is so happy getting out of the car at Elisabeth’s. She is so well cared for and Elisabeth always sends updates of what she’s up to and how much fun she’s having. So grateful to Elisabeth and highly recommend her and her sweet dogs!!”
“Our puppy Mabel had the most wonderful experience with Alissa! Even though we were on vacation it felt like Mabel was too with how well she was treated. She had daily playtime, fetch, special treats, enrichment toys, cuddles, and even her own space. We never had to worry about her with Alissa providing daily updates and photos. We would recommend Alissa to any dog owners who may have anxiety about leaving their pup in good hands. With Alissa, your dog is in a great hands!”
“Kaylee is the best with our little guy!! He has so much fun with her and def misses her when he comes home. We love getting to drop him off with Kaylee!”
“Our pup is a sensitive, nervous guy. Marna made sure he felt loved and at home. I could tell he was having fun with her family through the photos she sent. She filled us in each day and sent photos. 🤩 Will definitely use Marna again!”
“Finn had a wonderful vacation with Victoria and Magic. He is so tired! She took him on outings and treated him like part of the family. I appreciated her efforts to keep in contact through pictures of their activities. I will definitely use her services again.”
“Mariah, Kyle and family took good care of our 10 yr. old Portuguese Water Dog during our week long family vacation. They treated him like he was part of the family and he enjoyed being around their dog and another one they were also boarding. Having a fenced in yard was perfect for playing and getting exercise. They were easy to communicate with and wonderful about giving regular updates and sending photos.”
“Claudia and Jason were fantastic. They sent plenty of photos and took great care of our senior pup. Would definitely recommend them to other owners!”
“I was nervous to leave Maisey for a whole week, but I felt comfortable after meeting Molly in person, and all the photo updates I received confirmed that Maisey had a good time. Highly recommend!”
“Luna’s new home away from home! She was so well cared for, it made it easier to be away. Jennifer was great about sending photos of all of their adventures, and keeping me updated. Luna can’t wait to go back 😊”
“Viva once again provided a second home for our sweet boy. He trusts her implicitly as do we. She’s super conscientious about making sure he’s comfortable, active and well loved. And she always sends us the best photo updates!”
“Sarah and Dylan were both very accommodating with drop off and pick up. It made it easy for my husband and I to plan our trip to Boston for NYE and to know that Pika was taken care of. Easy communication and got an update with a couple of pictures to see how Pika was doing. Thank you again Sarah and Dylan! Will definitely bring Pika over next time!”
About: I've always had dogs in my life, and I think they deserve to be treated with love, patience & spoiled too! I'm comfortable with teacup-sized to the biggest dogs. I have a lab named Penne who loves to welcome new friends into our home! I work from home, so I have plenty of time to give pups all the love they need during their stay. I usually walk Penne 3x a day in Deering Oaks & let her run around the fenced-in yard if the weather is nice. For puppies I can do more-frequent runs! I am generous with treats, happy to have pets on furniture, and love to give pups love. I understand the concern with leaving your pup behind during work or a trip all too well, so I'm happy to give regular updates & pictures!
“We were anxious about boarding our 7 mo old, but Kathleen and Dylan immediately made us feel comfortable with going away for the weekend. As a mischievous puppy with a lot of energy, it was great to see how they rose to the occasion with outdoor exercise and entertainment. Sending updates and pics kept us feeling like Homer was in good hands. The communication was great and everything went seamlessly. We would definitely use their services again!”
“Breanna was AMAZING!! She took my 3 large Golden’s and 2 Persian cats on short notice for a week in her home. She checked in, sent me pictures, gave my old boy his meds. It was the best boarding experience i ever had. Feel safe and confident leaving your babies with her.”
“Bronzino had such a good time staying with Cat and Penny. Bronzy can be nervous with new people, and Cat did a great job of making him feel comfortable. We hope to book again!”
“Rose and her boyfriend are a godsend. They didn’t flinch at the length of time we needed them, nor that we had three dogs (2 chihuahuas and 1 Aussie). We were comfortable knowing our three girls were safe and happy while we were all the way in Alaska for 9 days. Excellent experience!”
“Colleen has a great approach to dog sitting. She spent lots of time playing outdoors and exposing Oakley to new adventures, which for him is great. She has a beautiful place with excellent opportunities for puppy adventures 🥰”

She is constantly going above and beyond for her, and blows me out of the water consistently in exercising her, training her, or just generally making her feel happy and safe.”
