“There are not enough kind things I can say about Jackie, she took incredible care of my fur baby. My mom unexpectedly passed away and I needed to leave town on very short notice for a week. I had never used Rover before or boarded her for more than one night in the 10 years I’ve had her. I had extreme anxiety about leaving her with someone else, especially during such a vulnerable time. Jackie took the best care of her, and when I say best, I truly mean the best! Nala also has anxiety when away from me and in only one day being away I was getting pictures of her with a huge smile on her face! Jackie and her family treated Nala like she was apart of their family, and gave her lots of cuddle time too 🥰. They knew she was anxious too and did everything they could to make her comfortable. Jackie constantly stayed in contact with me with messages on how she was doing and lots of photos and videos. In 10 years, Jackie was the first person I trusted with my baby and I’m so happy I did. It allowed me to take the time I needed and gave me the piece of mind knowing my baby was being cared for as best as possible. I feel so grateful to have found her, I never would have been able to get out of town if I hadn’t. I couldn’t recommend her more if you’re looking for someone who takes just as good of care of your fur baby as you do ❤️.”
“Our nearly 5 week trip was made possible by Connie’s loving and responsible care of our small dog who has some health issues, which she diligently worked around. We enjoyed the frequent text and photo updates she sent. It’s clear that she adores the dogs she watches! Until next time… woof!”
“Deanne was very welcoming as I plan on using her marvelous boarding again! She really cares and appreciates animals. Thanks so much Deanne for peace of mind while we are away from home!”
“Katie was amazing she made us feel comfortable leaving Max with her beautiful family, she was always sending us pictures of him and letting us know how he was doing! I will definitely recommend her to take care of your Fur baby. Thank you so much 😊 i will gladly give her 1000 star ⭐️ review”
“This was Medea's second time staying with Derek, and she clearly had just as good a time as the first! She came home extremely tired and content, so I know she played a lot. Derek always sends prompt and detailed updates, so I know she's in good hands when we send her there.”
“Kelli did a great job caring for my dog on a very long boarding of 18 days. Sent lots of pictires and kept me updated and was always available to chat. I would definitely use Kellie's services again in the future.”
“Jessica took great care of Avery. She was boarding another rat terrier at the same time and took steps to ensure the two dogs got along at feeding time. Her daughter made sure Avery got lots of love and exercise. She came home happy & healthy. Overall it was a great experience.”
“Carolyn had our pup in her home for just over a week while my family traveled. She treated her as her own with love. I received daily updates and pictures. It made our trip that much more enjoyable knowing our pup was in great hands. I highly recommend Carolyn and will definitely book with her again!”
“Kathleen made an instant connection with our 13 year old diabetic and nearly completely blind Brittney Spaniel. This was our first time leaving her with anyone outside of family and it was obvious from the photos that she was immediately comfortable and happy at Kathleen’s home. Would definitely use her again a d recommend her to anyone who is in need of boarding and may be a little hesitant. She has a very gentle soul that dogs resinate with.”
“John and his wife Kathy go over and above to create a comfortable environment for our dogs. They boarded them for two weeks and we got regular reports. We never had to worry about our two dogs, other than to worry if they’d ever want to leave John and Kathy’s! I cannot recommend them highly enough!”
“Stella and her husband Jim are fantastic! They watched our 2 VERY active Golden Retrievers for 9 days. She sent me daily pictures of them playing. They always seemed to be having a blast. I know my boys can be a handful but they never seemed bothered by their energy. Stella replied too all my txts and emails right away. You can tell they love dogs! I would give them 6 stars if I could. It was nice to go away and know that Tanner and Charlie were in good hands. I would take them back there in a heartbeat.”
“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!”
“Emily and family treated our Briggs like their own. They went on walks, cozied up by the fire and had a sleepover in the living room because he can’t get up stairs very well. I was sent pictures and he looked happy and content! We will be sure to give Emily a call next time we need someone to watch Briggs!”
“Christina did a great job caring for my little Yorkie Shamrock while I was out of town. My dog is shy with new people. She knew what to do and quickly won him over so he was comfortable with her. She was able to take him on walks during the day. I would highly recommend her for your pet care needs.”
“Sabrina was wonderful for puppy play day for our two pugs (6yo and 5 months!). They had a blast, we got lots of videos and photos, and they came home exhausted in the best way. We've booked her again for a four day trip and we're confident they'll be safe, well loved, and having a blast!”
