“We had a great experience leaving our Pointer/Lab with Christine over the holidays. They were super nice, thoughtful and flexible throughout the stay. I would recommend Christine any day and look forward to their services again.”
2. Michelle H.
“Lola absolutely enjoyed her stay with Michelle, Robert, and Sparky. We were gone for several nights and received regular pictures and updates of Lola, which was extremely comforting while on an extended vacation. We will use them again in the future.”
3. Jae S.
“I cannot recommend Jae highly enough! From the moment we met, it was clear that they truly love and understand dogs. My pup, Jackson, is usually a little shy around new people, but they warmed up to Jae almost immediately—tail wagging and all! While I was away, I received regular updates, including adorable pictures and messages that put my mind at ease. Jae went above and beyond, making sure Jackson was not only fed and walked but also happy and loved. When I returned, my dog was calm, relaxed, and clearly well-cared for—proof of the attention and care they received. It’s such a relief to know that I have someone reliable and loving to call on whenever I need help. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your furry friend like their own, I would definitely recommend Jae! Thank you so much, Jae!”

I would definitely recommend Judith! You can really tell she genuinely cares about dogs. :)”

“My sweet Meli stayed with Jill and her lovely family over an 11 night visit. Each and every day, I received a message from Jill with a nice update and photo of Meli and how she was doing. She was doing great getting lots of love and attention. We haven't left her for this long before and I was very comfortable with knowing she was in a safe and loving environment. Thanks Jill and family for everything! Meli passes along a "hi" to her new friends, Buddy & Sophie!”

16. Kyle D.
“Kyle was great. Dates & times had to b flexible because we were traveling for a funeral and Kyle accommodated us all the way. He sent pics daily and always responded to text messages. Would definitely recommend him.”
17. Katerina K.
“Katrina took great care of them and sent us lots of pictures. She understands dogs well and I always felt comfortable that they were in good hands. Thanks again!”
18. Sarah E.
“We left our Poodle with Sarah for 7 days and I couldn't be happier with the way Sarah treated our baby. Our puppy is somewhat spoiled and has specific needs and mannerisms that can make it extremely difficult to leave with another person. From our very first meet and greet Sarah was extremely kind and assured us that Katia (our puppy) will be treated as one of the family. Sarah during our vacation would send us frequent reports about Katia and it always sound like she was having tons of fun. Nevertheless, the most important clue on whether or not Katia had a great time, came right at the end, when we were picking her up. After the initial shock of seeing us, Katia started crying and pushing, trying to get back to Sarah's house as we were walking away. I can highly recommend Sarah for all your puppy's needs and we will be returning to her for our next vacation.”
19. Ryan R.
“Ryan did a good job looking after my dog Cooper for the weekend. He was very responsive and sent updates on how he was doing. Cooper appreciated the company of Ryan’s dogs as well!”
20. John S.
“Zoe had a wonderful stay. John is kind and very easy to work with. We appreciated the daily updates and pictures and how well she was cared for. We would use him again!”
