“Oana and Oliver are the best! I always feel very comfortable leaving our dog in their care. Our dog has an amazing time too, walks, play time in their yard, and lots of love. I look forward to seeing the photos they send at the end of each day. I would highly recommend having your dog stay with Oana and Oliver!”
“Alix was absolutely amazing and I am so thankful I chose her to watch Clark for the weekend! She was so flexible and responsive. I booked her very last minute but she had no problem taking Clark in and watching him! She sent amazing updates throughout the weekend so I always knew how Clark was doing. She went above and beyond for Clark and when I picked him up he was the happiest pup ever! Will definitely be booking with Alix again!!!”
“Yick-hong was FANTASTIC with Fiona! From the start, he was very communicative and thorough with the intake before the actual boarding. While Fiona stayed with Yick-hong, we could see that she was very comfortable and happy from her body language. He took great care of her, took her on scenic walks, played with her, pampered her - and even taught her new tricks! We are very happy that Fiona made a new friend, and would happily leave her with Yick-hong again. Fantastic sitter and companion”
“We are so grateful to March and his family for taking great care of Billie while we were away. March was extremely communicative and it was very clear from his messages and photos that Billie was very well cared for and happy. We’ve already booked him for our next trip!”
“Thank you so much for watching Harley! I could tell immediately that she felt comfortable/trusted you when I dropped her off and it made such a difference in allowing me to enjoy my trip. She’s already eaten the treat you sent her home with.”
“Barbara was an absolutely amazing dog sitter. She was attentive to my dog’s needs and made sure my dog felt comfortable staying with her. Barbara sent plenty of pictures which reassured me my dog was in good hands. I don’t think my dog wanted to leave! I would 100% recommend Barbara and will be trusting my dog in her hands again in the future.”
“Elizabeth and Neil have raised the bar on so many levels. They are truly dog people and I could tell right away how much they love and care for dogs. When I left their home after dropping off my dog, I felt I had left her in the right place, and so it was. The many pictures and videos they sent me showed they were enjoying so much the pet company :) I almost felt she would not want to come back with me as she was so spoiled the whole time! I'll definitely be in touch next time I need boarding for my pooch. Thank you Elizabeth and Neil, You were wonderful!”
“Betsy and her family created a welcoming environment that made it easy for our nervous dog to adjust. Betsy gave him all the care and attention he needed and was super responsive through our vacation. We will try to book again before we move.”

“Jane was so great! We met up before the booking to ensure our pup would feel right at home. He got plenty of walks and play time! When I picked him up, I knew how happy he was. This is the first time he didn't try to bolt to the car to go home from an over night stay! Thank you, Jane!”
“Yang kept updating me with pictures and videos. My dog loved her family and was well taken care of. He got to go for a long walk around the lake. We will ask her again whenever we are away.”

Thank you both very much!”

“François was absolutely fantastic. He went over our routine with Atlas and took Atlas for multiple long walks - Atlas was in heaven. François kept us up-to-date on their activities together and was easy to communicate with!”
