“Excellent experience as always. This was the longest we’ve ever been away from our dog but Nathalie made us feel more than comfortable with the daily photos and videos. Thanks again.”
“She was willing and happy to take in our pups while still recovering from the hurricane! Thank you again so much for taking such good care of my babies.”
“We were thrilled with the level of love and attention our senior lab Cooper received during his stay with Tina. She was a super communicator and sent lots of great pictures and videos of his stay as well as gave thorough details of how he did while he was there. Bonus, Cooper's long lost twin is her dog Tahoe :) they had the best time together and should we have the need for a dog sitter for Cooper again, we won't hesitate to contact Tina. If I could give 10 stars I would! Thanks again :)”
“Carol has been extremely helpful and caring throughout Percy's stay with her last week. She went above and beyond to accomodate us in times of need and challenge to find a suitable in-home boarding for our Percy. Carol's prompt and positive response gave us the opportunity to carry on with our plan. We received regular updates and pictures of Percy that were very reassuring and heartwarming. We feel so lucky and are very grateful to meet Carol. We will definitely stay in touch with her and gladly take Percy to her for his next boarding stay. Carol's kind and gracious care are unmatched and we highly recommend her. She is a great asset in our community.”
“Sharon took great care of my doodle! She sent frequent updates and he came back quite sleepy. I could tell that he had plenty of activity while I was away. Would definitely recommend Sharon and will use her again. For reference, my boy is a 90lb golden doodle.”
“Lindsay is an awesome dog sitter. I had to leave the state for a couple of weeks and was perfectly comfortable having my “kid” at her house. It’s nice because she works out of her home and do you know about the dog isn’t love for long periods of time. I will definitely use her again !”
“Soraya was great! Lucy, looked happy and well when I picked her up which usually she gets stressed while being boarded or dog sat. Soraya kept me updated each day on how she was doing.”
“Michele was very accommodating and was able to sit for my two golden doodles for a holiday weekend when my plans changed last minute. The dogs were well cared for and had a good time. Pictures were sent to keep me posted about them too. Will use her again for our travel needs”

Diana took a last minute boarding for us as we were in town from Denver but had car troubles and didn’t get to ski as planned. Her taking our reservation made it so we could get a few runs in before we left and still make sure our pup was taken care of! She only had her for a few hours but took her on a walk, let her sun bathe and sent photos throughout her stay. Would book her again next time we’re in big sky!
