4. Vivian W.


“Vivi & her family took care of my Simba just like he was her own. He loved being with them, and I was very comfortable leaving him in her care. She spoiled him & took great care of him. Simba will stay with Aunt ViVi & her family when we go again. Thank you so much Vivian!”


5. Renae M.

“Renae was wonderful with Jack! Reluctantly, my partner and I had to have him boarded for Thanksgiving and he was given such good care. He's pretty new for us and was eased into some social time with kids and other dogs, giving us more confidence for him to be around our families and in large group settings. She updated me periodically which put me at ease. I can vouch for her kindness and quality of care. Book Renae!”


6. Vanessa G.

“100% recommend this kennel, Vanessa is great! Daily pictures and videos were sent to me of my puppy playing and going on walks. Was a vacation for my pup while we were on ours, Vanessa goes above and beyond”

About: I have had cats and dogs my whole life. I'm now a crazy cat lady with 8 cats. My dog Bella of 14 years unfortunately recently passed away so I would love to spend some time with your furry friends to help fill the void. I will do my very best to give your pet specialized care and take care of all their needs I can watch pets part time on my days off or run out to walk them or feed them in between my shifts at work We have a huge yard away from neighbors for dogs to play and a separate guest room indoors for cats or dogs. Also lots of toys to be played with

“Carol is amazing. She was loving and kind with our pup and we were extremely comfortable with her when we left our pup at her home. We received regular photos and updates on sleeping, eating and playing. I highly recommend Carol!!!!”


9. Faye E.

“Faye was absolutely incredible with both of my dogs and I felt completely secure knowing they were being cared for. She even played meditation music for my sweet rescue with bad anxiety and took them both for nice walks where they could make new friends. Will definitely hire her again and again!”


10. Rebecca R.

“Absolutely amazing. They were great with my American lab Sky. She instantly became best friends with their pups, kids, and their potbelly pig. It was the perfect environment for a friendly active dog like mine.”


11. Beatriz R.

“Our 2, 15 year old pups (Toby & Summer) spent a week away for the first time time outside of a chain boarding facility. Given their age, we felt best having them get the 1:1 care needed however, this came with anxiety. Our anxieties were immediately put to rest because she offered a meet & greet then during their stay with Beatriz, she sent daily pictures, videos, and texts with updates which were beyond meaningful for us! They were SO loved and fit in with her own senior crew. 10/10 recommend Beatriz and her love that she has to offer for your animals! 🐾❤️ To top things off, our travels were to Puerto Rico and she was kind enough to offer us many recommendations for sites to see and food to eat! Thank you for the exceptional care that you gave to our fur babies, Beatriz! You are the best! 🐾❤️”


12. Becca I.

“Becca was a joy to work with, and took excellent care of my sweet boy Gunner. He had an awesome time with her pets and kids. I think he barely realized we were gone for a week! Thanks Becca ?”

“Beatriz and Hayden were wonderful! Sadie was spoiled loving her meal enhancements, walks, and her friend Duncan! Thank you for treating Sadie like part of the family and for the consistency photos, videos, and updates ❤️”

19. Amanda W.


“Amanda is WONDERFUL! I am always cautious about leaving Rex with anyone but I had no concerns at all. She treated him like one of her own babies and he really enjoyed himself. I will always use her for his birding needs. She is his new "GRAMMY"”


20. Alex A.

“If you want excellent care for your pet call Alex. I was reluctant to leave my Charlie cat as he was never away but Alex cared for him in a very loving way. It was evident that my cat was happy and well cared for. Consider Alex for your pet care needs. She was phenomenal. The next time I go away, I'll call Alex.”
