Amber was AMAZING ? We left our Marlie girl with Amber for week while we went out of state. I was a little nervous about being so far away but Amber put my mind at ease with multiple updates daily and lots of pics. They went on lots of long walks, played in the great big backyard and chased squirrels. I am so grateful to Amber for taking such good care of our girl. I would highly recommend Amber. Marlie is already excited for her next pup vacation at Amber’s house

This is the first time we have ever boarded a fur baby in someone’s home. We were very nervous. Our dog has stitches and needed meds during his stay and Karin was able to accommodate his needs! She was also awesome at sending us pictures and updates. It was great seeing him having fun! We will definitely be using her again! We will even do some doggy daycare since our dogs are besties now!

Derik and Megan are wonderful. They took on a challenge or what I would call a challenge by caring for my little boogie baby. They treated him so well as if he was their own. They kept me updated with pictures and text. I wouldn't ask for a better dog sitter. They made us feel at ease with our baby knowing it was our first time ever boarding him. Thank you again!

My dogs loved going to Rachel's house. They stayed for one night on a last minute booking. Rachel was very responsive to texts through the booking and stay, and even worked with us when we had car troubles and had to pick the dogs up later than expected. My dogs seemed very comfortable and happy there. I'd definitely use her again!

Our pup, Sokka, absolutely loves Ryan which is helpful since our dog has anxiety around other dogs (so kennel boarding is a very stressful experience). We really appreciate that Ryan also takes Sokka on walks and dog park visits if he's able to do so. We highly recommend Ryan for boarding!

This was our 2nd time using Alysia. Our dog was so excited to see her when we arrived at her house. So we knew our dog really did enjoy her stay with Alysia and her pups. Makes it much easier to leave your dog when you know they are happy.

This is our third time using Carey and Bonnie, and once again, we had a great experience. Sam, our Goldendoodle, is an anxious fella who struggles with separation anxiety. They loved on him and made him feel right at home, as always. We received daily updates, photos, and videos throughout his stay. They're the best of the best! THANK YOU@@
