“They were super nice and gave us updates anytime we wanted about the well being of our baby. Would highly recommend them to take care of your fur baby while you are on vacation.”
“Mrs Donna took wonderdul care of our sweet dog while we were gone. We could tell when we picked him up by the way he respinded to her that he was not only cared for bit recieved love care and attention.”
“Kelly took extremely good care of our two pugs. One is 5 and the other is not quite 2. She has a yard where they could run and play which I am sure they loved because we do not have a yard they can play off leash on (more like a tick farm). The boys came home very happy and have collapsed on our laps to recuperate for their next adventure. I will book Kelly & Brian again when the need arises.”
“I had a great experience using Shume to watch my dog, Donny. I reached out to her because my husband and I were going on a last minute trip. She was super quick to respond and very accommodating. Donny had a great stay! Shume texted updates and pictures to me, which I really appreciated. She was very friendly and professional. I would definitely use her again.”
“Steven welcomed our two sister mini-dachshunds into his house for a week while my family went on vacation. As these are senior dogs (15+), they do have some special needs, but Steven handled both with care and attention while sending us daily updates with pictures. We are so grateful for Steven and his family for the care they gave to our babies.”
“My Achilles has become a repeat client. We love the care and attention Dalis shows him while in her care. The picture updates of him playing and having fun gives me such relief to know he is in great hands.”
“This was Oscar’s first overnight without us. He was with Kristin and her family for 2 nights. He was a bit anxious, but got better the 2nd night. Kristin took good care of him and tried to keep things as close as possible to his normal routine. We definitely recommend Kristin and will be using her again.”
“Kira and her husband were awesome! Kira talked to me by phone before we booked and then assured me that Kobe would be just fine. She sent pictures throughout Kobe’s stay. She bathed and trimmed his nails and did an excellent job! Highly recommend her and we will definitely use her again!”
“Lauren was wonderful with both of our floofs! She was super easy to work with and because we knew they were in good hands we were able to relax and enjoy our time away! Would definitely recommend and will use her again whenever we need someone to watch our doggos.”
“We highly recommend Barbara and her husband as the y took great care of our 15 year old senior pup. Our dog has some memory problems at his old age, and Barbara met with us beforehand to allow him to meet her, and also her sweet dog and to allow our dog to visit the house beforehand. During his stay, she kept me updated with photos and quick text updates which I really appreciated. They did a great job making our old pup comfortable for his time with them! We would reuse their service and will recommend them to others!”
“Return customer and very happy with the outstanding boarding Kristin provides to our two fur babies! Our pups are happy, healthy and exhausted from all the playtime they get when we pick them up. Highly recommended!!”
“Romeo had a great time with Elizabeth and her Theodore and all the other furry friends he made during his 4 night stay. He enjoyed the fenced in yard. We received daily pictures and videos so we got to see what a great time Romeo was having! Romeo can’t wait to return for another stay!”
“Auburn was absolutely the best possible person we could have found to care for my mom's dog. She was kind, flexible, understanding, and totally amazing. My mom had to accompany her partner to an out of town medical facility, immediately after he received a surprise terminal diagnosis. She was very worried about her dog. Auburn picked Ginger up, took great care of her, sent regular pictures and updates, and dropped Ginger off after my mom got home, late at night. She was beyond accommodating and I would recommend her to anyone. If we ever have another need for service, we hope and pray Auburn will be available.”
