“My wife, Dongmei, and I recently boarded our Golden Retriever, Sagan, with Janessa for an overnight stay. Sagan just turned one year old, and this was the first time we had ever left him with someone other than family, so we were naturally a little nervous. We couldn't have been happier with the experience. Janessa took great care of Sagan and made him feel right at home. It was clear he had a fantastic time playing with Janessa's dogs and the other dogs she was boarding. When we picked him up the next morning, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly comfortable in her care. The biggest sign of how much fun he had came afterward. As soon as he got in the car, he completely crashed from all the excitement and activity. Once we got home, he slept for several hours and seemed incredibly content. Any Golden Retriever owner knows that's usually the sign of a very good day. Janessa was friendly, professional, and gave us confidence that Sagan was in great hands. In fact, we felt so good about the experience that we've already booked her to care for Sagan for two weeks while we travel to China later this summer. We're grateful to have found Janessa and her family and look forward to having Sagan stay with them again. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and dog-loving sitter.”

“I was super nervous to leave my pup for the first time but she was in great hands with Chloe! She gave great updates throughout my trip and my girl had so much fun with Chloe and her family. She became part of their family in just a couple days and now she can’t wait for a reason to come back for her next stay!”

“It is wonderful to drop you pup child off and know they are well taken care of and having fun. Our Queenie becomes apart of your family when she is there and we appreciate not having to worry about her!”

“Lexi and Victor watched our golden for a few nights. They were flexible when we needed to add an additional night, and provided regular updates and photos. Would recommend!”

“Hyeyoung and her family took great care of George! She sent great updates each day about George. Her photos are amazing! She made George look like a vogue doggy. I will 100% be rebooking with her!”

“Bryan and Peggy are the best! Pippa immediately recognized Bryan and Peggy when we took her back 3 weeks after the first one night stay. She was so excited to see them again and went easily inside with them, her tail wagging. This time she stayed 2 weeks. Bryan sent lots of pictures and videos which was super nice. We could see how happy Pippa was in their loving company. She was "home away from home". Thank you Bryan and Peggy for treating and loving Pippa like your own dog. Pippa will come back whenever we need to go out of state.”


“Amazing!! I felt like Leslie really cared about my dog and he had a great time at Leslie’s place. Frequent update with cute pictures and videos of my dog and many play times!! Would definitely recommend Leslie with confidence :)”


“Diana was very accommodating and took great care of Penny. She sent regular updates and photos, which we appreciated. Penny seemed happy and well cared for when we picked her up and we hope to book with her again in the future.”

“Courtney took amazing care of my dog, Archie. She provided plenty of updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind knowing he was happy and well cared for. Archie came back home happy and relaxed. I highly recommend Courtney to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring.”

“Awesome! Erika was super helpful, accommodating and very communicative! We got almost daily pictures of Luna which was amazing and Erika was very flexible with pick up and drop off times. Our pup came back from a week with her very happy and well cared for. Highly recommend!”

“Great communication, friendly, flexible, and very clearly loves dogs! I trust Kaylie with my two pups and wouldn’t hesitate to bring them back for other stays. They love the backyard and spending time with the resident dogs there!”


“Jamie was wonderful with our dogs during their first stay with them! As nervous puppy parents, we really appreciated the updates she sent, which helped us relax and enjoy our time away. She did a great job managing our puppy, who had a bit of potty-training regression in the new environment, and also helped our dogs get comfortable with the other dogs who were there. We highly recommend Jamie and would definitely book with her again!”

“Quang and his wife took care of muffy for 2 weeks while I was out of town and they did a great job! They offered a meet and greet before the stay, and during the stay, they sent daily pictures and videos, and updates on how Muffy was doing. Thank you!!”

“Kim did a fantastic job caring for our dog while we were on vacation! She was consistent with sending updates and photos letting us know how our pup was doing. We will definitely use her services again!”

“Heather is amazing. Responds very fast and sends updates daily. Couldn’t have felt more comfortable with her watching my special needs dog. Will definitely book again.”

“Amin was an excellent sitter! He took great care of Jack and went above and beyond to make him comfortable. Jack loved playing with his dog and going on walks. Will use him again when needed. I knew Jack was in good hands. Amin sent detailed notes each day and pictures.”

“Lori was amazing! My pup immediately took to her, her dogs, and her home. I felt safe leaving him there. She sent me several pictures and updates and was so flexible on my changing schedule. Thank you Lori!”

“Amy and her family were very welcoming with our corgi. She has a great safe and secure yard for dogs to run around in and I know our pup was in heaven. Amy sent many photos of my dog with updates. When my dog did act up, Amy had prompt communication with me as we figured out next steps. She did a great job with him in a hard situation. I'd recommend anyone to Amy - she loves dogs and has a great set up to host furry friends! Thank you!”

“My dogs had fun. This place is similar to a dog hotel where the dogs are allowed to roam around, better than any kennel! One of my dogs who could be aggressive towards others has done exceptionally well and she has hung out with other dogs as well. I would recommend this place!”
