“Right from the start Jamie was very communicative and flexible. She is very kind and welcoming. When we had a change of plans Jamie was very accommodating. I know Cali had an excellent time at her home, playing in her yard with her other dogs, and with her daughters. I look forward to having a reason to use Jamie in the future :) Thank you so much!”

“Amelia and Grant are great! They watched our 14 year old dog over the 4th of July weekend and provided updates regularly. I was never worried about what Daisy was up to because I felt that they made her comfortable right off the bat. I highly recommend using Amelia and Grant as we hope to again!”

“I left my German Shepherd Beagle Harbour and unfixed Pitbull Ace with Natalie for 4 days and 3 nights. It was one of the best experiences I’ve had. Upon drop off, she met me right at my vehicle and helped get the boys, their crates, and bags inside. Upon pick up, she did the exact same. Also, to my surprise, both the boys had been bathed and wearing the cutest bandannas. She sent lots of photos and video updates throughout their stay and they always look like they were having a blast. She even let them cuddle in bed with her at night. Definitely going to book with Natalie over and over again!!!”


“Watson always has the best time when being watched by Lauren! Watson gets along so well with her 2 dogs, he comes home so happy and tired with all the playing every time! Count not recommend Lauren enough!”


“Sarah and Erik were amazing. I received several updates with pictures and a video. Kehlani definitely had a fun weekend with her new bestie Rosie, playing chase in the large fenced in back yard. I highly recommend Sarah, Erik and sweet lil baby Gus❤️ I’m happy to know my fur baby will be in good hands when I can’t be home”
