Our puppy, Snowie, stayed with Sonja for 2 days, and we couldn’t be happier! She sent regular photo updates, made sure Snowie got plenty of playtime, and even kept up with his feeding schedule. The place was clean and safe, and Snowie came home happy and relaxed. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a caring and professional boarder. We’ll definitely book again!

Stephanie is fantastic! She went above and beyond to make the entire dog sitting process easy, reassuring and comfortable for us - from coming to our home for a meet and greet to being extra communicative and flexible to even dropping our dogs off at our house after our long day of travel! She is so sweet and clearly loves dogs. Our pups were upset when she left, so we know they had a great experience too. She is a responsible, trustworthy dog sitter and person. And lastly, her home is super clean, very unlike some of the in-home kennel situations we’ve experienced with Rover sitters. We will be using her again. We can’t recommend her enough!

Their home is perfect with a fenced in backyard and the entire family is used to having dogs around. I received picture/updates and had a wonderful experience!

They were able to take care of that, and they sent me twice daily detailed notes and videos and pics. It made it so much easier to be away from my kitties. I will definitely use their services again!

I can’t thank Caitlin and Adam enough for how they took care of our 9 month puppy for two weeks!! I was anxious to be gone that long from him, but their set up was perfect and Caitlin’s communication was so great. We were able to relax and fully enjoy our trip knowing our pup was in capable and caring hands. Thank you SO much!!

Do not hesitate to leave your fur kids with Alycia! Both she and Derek showed so much patience and care with my senior boy who requires a lot of extra attention and effort. They were accommodating and communicative. It's clear that caring for pets is a calling for them. I would definitely rely on Alycia again!

Sue takes great care of our GSP. Our dog gets a lot of great play time in Sue’s yard with her dog. Of note, we were supposed to pick out dog up at about 7:30 on a Sunday night after our return from a long weekend in Austin. Despite our flight being 2 hours delayed, Sue was patient and waited for us to come over late to get our pup. Thank you for your amazing flexibility Sue!!
