Supon was so great and made me feel so comfortable leaving Millie for the first time! She clearly had a blast and was very well taken care of. He sent many pictures which made it easier to be away from her. I will definitely be using his dog boarding services again.

It was wonderful to find Morgan for my older boxer who needed a quiet environment while we were out of town for the holidays. Morgan has older dog experience, took Sugar for gentle walks and sent me pics daily.

Noah was absolutely fabulous caring and watching our sweet doggie! Our pup gets separation anxiety and Noah made sure he was got lots of hugs, long walks, and treats . Noah sent us pictures and regular updates throughout the weekend, something we enjoyed! He asked us all the right questions about our doggie’s habits and made sure Moose felt comfortable all weekend!

I was nervous about leaving Chilson since we only adopted him 3 months ago and he’s only just begun to feel at home with us. Haydenn had his heart when they first met and Chilson warmed right up! Was happy and content when I picked him up and I hope to ask Haydenn to watch him again next time we’re in DC.

I would recommend Joseph as a pet sitter and would entrust him with watching our pups again in the future. Thanks for taking care of our babies!

I can’t say enough good things! We felt so good knowing our dog, Ollie, was being loved and cared for by Katherin for the 4 days we were away. She followed our instructions perfectly and provided daily updates with pictures so not only did we know what he was doing but we got to see him enjoying his time too. Katherin made it easy for us to relax and enjoy our time away knowing Ollie was safe and happy too. She was also very responsive and flexible both before and during the stay. Ollie came home healthy and happy and he can’t wait to stay with Katherin again!

Christine was so fantastic. She boarded my baby girl for a week. Christine was very flexible and consistently sent me updates and photos of Dolly. Dolly also takes daily medication, and I truly appreciate the extra effort from Christine. Dolly clearly had a lovely time. I'm so happy she got a chance to hang out with other dogs and be at Christine's welcoming and wonderful home!

We’re so grateful for the care our sitter gave our two pups during their stay. What began as a few days of boarding turned into a longer stay because of an unexpected medical emergency, and she was incredibly kind, flexible, and accommodating the entire time. Knowing our dogs were safe, cared for, and in good hands brought us real peace of mind during a very stressful situation. We truly appreciate her compassion and would absolutely trust her again.

David and Zuleirys were absolutely fantastic sitters for our pup, Henri. They were communicative, compassionate, and easy going. Oh and did I mention super friendly?? They have two adorable pups for your furry friend to play with and have easy access to dog parks and recreational space to burn off energy. David and Zuleirys were a pleasure and I would 100% engage them again (Henri agrees!!).

Kiwi is a very shy dog, and doesn't like being around other dogs. I have no idea what magical touch Harmony has, but we picked up Kiwi far more friendly with other dogs and are even debating adopting a new dog because of her. I would highly recommend her to take of your pup and understand your pups needs!

Jim was fantastic with boarding my dog Rosy. I have a rescue pup with severe anxiety, so boarding her can be very challenging. Rosy took to Jim right away and was very comfortable with him when I came to pick her up. He kept me regularly updated on her stay with pictures which I appreciated and was very patient with Rosy. I wouldn't hesitate to book again with Jim and would recommend him highly.

Jessica was amazing and will be my go-to person every time I need to book care for Porkchop. She is experienced, patient, knows how to handle all dogs, and put me at ease right away with her demeanor. The biggest test was how Porkchop responded to her. Porkchop warmed up to Jessica instantly, pulling on his leash to go to her place right away. I trust Porkchop with Jessica and know that I am leaving Porkchop in good, reliable care when booking with Jessica. Thank you, J, for giving Porkchop love and attention and keeping him calm and happy while I was away.

I could tell he had gotten comfy with Thi even learned to properly roll over with her (its his favorite trick now lol) Thank you so much again!
