“Baxter had such a great stay with Anne, we love her. This was my first time boarding him, he's a nervous but very social young rescue. He had so much fun playing with Anne's dogs and was so comfortable with Anne. There is a beautiful yard and a very comfortable house they have the run of. I got lots of pictures and updates! We'll definitely be boarding here again!”
“I had a last minute booking need come up and I’m so glad I did so I could meet Elisabeth! Elisabeth was so wonderful and caring to my dog. I was really excited to see she has other small dogs, and Louise had a blast running around with her crew. Elisabeth was incredibly caring, she sent really thorough updates and made Louise feel right at home after I left. I felt so at ease knowing my sensitive little dog was so well cared for and had some friends to play with. I would absolutely bring Louise back and highly recommend Elisabeth!”
“Neil and Abby were great. Good communication and our dog was very happy there - lots of good play time with their dog Molly. Would definitely have Delta board with them again in the future!”
“I couldn't be happier with the care my dog received! From the moment we arrived, it was clear that Sridevi truly loves animals and treats them like part of her own family. Her home is warm, clean, and perfectly set up for dogs to feel safe and comfortable. She kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Baxter came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for- honestly I think he had a little vacation of his own. I would absolutely recommend Sri to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and attentive dog sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Katherine did an amazing job with Boone. He was well rested and not anxious at all when I picked him up. She was very flexible and communicative during his stay. I was very happy!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Alma, who invited our Whoopie into her home and family. When possible, Alma also arranges a meet and greet before the stay to ensure a good fit. Thank you so much Alma! We hope we can meet again and reunite dogs and people.”
“I recommend Jake. He was friendly and attentive to my instructions for Jazzy. He sent me pictures of her regularly and she was happy and in good shape when I picked her up. I would leave Jazzy with Jake again!”
“Christine was a lovely host for Bode’s week of summer camp. She was quick to reply, lovely to speak with, but most importantly seemed to really care about Bode’s wellbeing and happiness. She has a huge fenced in yard that he had free reign to, and a lovely in ground pool. We will absolutely book with her again!”
“They did a great job taking care of our bulldog. He is a large breed and loves attention, their whole family gave him lots of love. They were flexible with our schedule and easy to work with. Would definitely use them again.”
“Another fabulous visit with Viva! Nova always comes home so happy and tired, and we appreciate Viva’s flexibility and knowledge! She always goes above and beyond - we appreciate you!”
“Kyle and Mariah were fantastic caretakers for Lobo for the past week! Got photo updates multiple times per day, and it's clear that he had a TON of engagement and activity - he put himself to bed when we got home 😂. Highly recommend!!”
“I will definitely reach out to Christina for any care for my pup. Her communication and attention to my dog was unmatched and I’m sure my dog will be excited to see her again!”
“We always go with Molly when we are heading out of town! She is quick to respond, super responsible, and truly does a wonderful job taking care of our dog. He is always happy to get there! Her own dogs are super cute and pleasant to be around. I cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“We are so grateful to have found Kelly! She took such wonderful care of our dog while we were away, treating him like part of her own family. Communication was excellent — we received regular updates with photos that put us completely at ease. It was clear from the moment we met Kelly that she genuinely loves animals and has a real gift for connecting with them. Our dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust Kelly again for future stays!”
