“Wow! Absolutely wow! To give you an idea of how well my boys experience was…They didn’t want to leave. I had to entice them with treats to get in the car to go home. They were loving on Nancy from the moment the door to her home was opened to seeing their smiling faces when we picked them up after a weekend. We now refer to this experience as “Aunt Nancy’s Oasis.” These boys had so much fun they were wiped when they got home and probably had the best sleep of their lives.”


“This was my first time using Rover and I was so grateful that it was with Karina! She was extremely gracious and communicated daily. She sent videos and pictures of my sweet pup throughout the day. I was truly grateful for her care for my pup. I highly recommend!!!”


“Benson had the best time at Leigh and Richards! He’s a boxer with lots of crazy energy and they were amazing with him. He wasn’t just a dog staying at their house- they took him on long walks, played with him and treated him as their own. They sent me lots of pictures which really put my mind at ease since this was the first time I’d left him with anyone. I will absolutely use them in the future. I can tell Benson really loves their whole family and that’s the best feeling when you have to leave your pet.”


“James and Caitlyn took care of my Murdoch. I swear Murdoch was sad the next day he wasn’t at their home playing with Crew. They were so wonderful to my boy and to me. My flight got cancelled and they were so accommodating and just really good communicators. I will definitely be having them look over Murdoch again. If I could give them 10 stars I would.”


“Champ had the best time at Kelli’s and did not want to leave! She took excellent care of him and kept me updated the entire time with great photos. Champ made lots of new best friends with her dogs too. Thank you so much!!!”

“Rhondarose gave us multiple updates and pictures which was so great since this was the first time our pup was cared for outside of family. Cocco was able to run and play with other dogs and it was an easy transition with Rhondarose’s family. We are so grateful and already planned our next booking!”

Jill is so professional and friendly, her dogs and Riley play very well together and she always asks questions about Riley before we leave and provides a quick update when we pick him up. Jill is excellent and very timely with all communication. We will definitely be going back to The Mutt House again and again!”
