“Carolyn was amazing. Gunner had such a good time. It was such a relief to know he was being loved and taken care of. Carolyn sent pictures and videos everyday. We so enjoyed our vacation knowing Gunner was so well taken care of. Carolyn and her family are fantastic!!!”
“Karen and family took amazing care of our giant Newfoundland Nora. Spoiled her during her stay which was great to see. Pictures and updates daily showed how good of a time she had. Thank you for taking care of our baby.”
“Got frequent updates and our pup seemed to love the environment! Monika was very welcoming and understanding when it came to certain instructions with our dog will definitely go back for future stays:)”
“Second time using Luke and Rachel. They are great with Daisy and seem like dog people. Daisy was well cared for, we got updates on how she was doing, they communicate well and pick up/drop off is easy. Will use again!”
“Hather had an amazing time with Kyle, who took the best care of our big old guy and was attentive to his needs. Thanks Kyle for making a home-away-from-home for our dog!”
“Lan is wonderfully attentive to Rahoul. Rahoul had such a great time, he didn't want to go home with me. Lan is extremely flexible with my schedule changes. I truly appreciate and am very grateful that Lan was looking after my little boy! There will definitely be many many more future stays with Lan!”
“Ali was great and communicated to us throughout our trip perfectly. She was very flexible, and Piper seemed to have a great time with her and her family! Would love to go back there again next time”
“Jessica was fantastic about taking care of my dog. They gave me daily update and could tell they really wanted to make her comfortable. They were responsive to all of my questions it was such a great experience.”
“Mike is great with dogs. It is clear that he and his family just loves them. We were a bit afraid that our big, energetic dog would irritate his little one, but Ruby is very calm and just let Orion run around him. Mike was very accommodating with pick-up and drop-off times too. Going to book him again now.”
“Emily is as very communicative and kept us up to date on our pup’s days. We’ll definitely use her again the next time we need a safe place for our beagle to stay.”
“Lauren and Michael were wonderful! They watched one of our dogs before and he had a great time with them, they are so attentive and send lots of updates with pictures! They were great with our new dog too, who is toothless and wears belly bands. I will definitely be booking them again!”
“Brooklin was beyond amazing! She met me at her door with a toy to make sure my dog was comfortable with her. She provided pictures and updates through my dog's stay with her. She had a positive attitude and I'll definitely be returning! Highly recommend:)”
“Our dog loved staying with Henry and Janie! She had a great time and their dogs were super friendly and welcoming. We got great picture and video updates and felt really comfortable leaving Rillo with them for 10 days over a holiday. Rillo came home happy and tired, so we know she got a lot of great play time. Wonderful fenced in large backyard as well. They were great overall and we would absolutely recommend them and use them again.”
“Jenny and Andy are great! Great communication and updates. They really put us at ease and it’s clear Shiva was well taken care of and loved while we were gone. Can’t recommend enough!”
“Dynette was amazing watching our fur baby. Sent lots of pictures/updates and gave our girl lots of love. I would highly recommend her as a sitter and will definitely use her again in the future.”
“When my plans for my 10-day vacation fell through, I was incredibly stressed about finding a place for my dog to stay. Fortunately, I happened upon Patti and Patrick and after speaking with them my worries vanished. It is clear that they both are dog lovers and will be sure to spoil your furry four legged friends as much as you spoil them. The first night I received a picture of Lola lounging on the couch with Patti and Lola looked so at ease that she may have been actually smiling. This was of great comfort to mea and I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that Lola was being attentively cared for by Patti & Patrick.”
“The whole family is Super nice and really cared for our dog, Mac. Very communicative and sent lots of pics. Will definitely use in the future and highly recommend.”
