1. Matt M.
“Matt was absolutely wonderful our Dalmatian, Juniper! He was also so accommodating when our flight home was cancelled resulting in us picking her up a couple hours later than originally scheduled. I would highly recommend him if you ever need a sitter for your dog, and would not hesitate to book with him in the future.”

5. Sarah R.
“Bunji always gets great treatment at Sarahs. He loves playing w her little dog. Always excited when we arrive. In addition to fun backyard, Sarah walks him which helps his high energy to burn off.”
6. Cyndi M.
“This is the first time I used Rover and left Hercules to be taken care by someone who was not part of the family. He is a senior and very into his ways so I was apprehensive about how he would take it. From the photos Cyndi provides daily I could tell in the first day he was relaxed and really into Cyndi. She took a great care of him and it was great to have daily updates and a place where he does need to share with other dogs. I would highly recommend Cyndi and I will definitely book more stays with her.”

“I was very nervous about leaving my dogs with someone they didn’t know and in a place they weren’t familiar with. Upon meeting Maria my fears were put to rest. She is very accepting and accommodating of all kinds of dogs. We weren’t sure if our big guy Archie would behave but she assured us it would be fine and it was! She sent pics and videos as well. Would feel comfortable bringing our dogs there again if needed.”
