“It was tough leaving our puppy after having him for only three weeks. However, he was in good hands with Angelo and the daily videos reassured us he was happy and healthy.”

“Beth was amazing!! Our dog seemed to love being with her. She sent a lot of pictures and videos, which was very comforting. She played with him a ton and treated him like one of her own. We will definitely book with Beth again.”

“They treated our fur baby like one of their own. Very responsive and provided updates on his day. I found them as our normal sitter was unavailable, but they will definitely see Leo again!”

“Magda was absolutely wonderful with our puppy! She shared tons of photos and kept us updated the entire time, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She spent lots of time outside with Penny, taking her on walks and doing activities to keep her happy and engaged. Penny can definitely be a handful at times, but Magda was so patient, gentle, and kind with her. You can tell she truly loves what she does. We would recommend her to anyone.”

“Karen was great with our dogs Bella and Brandy! She was very friendly and responsive and sent us lots of updates and pictures during our vacation! We will definitely use Karen again for future trips!”

“Sylvie is so sweet & kind!! You can tell she absolutely loves dogs! My puppy Maverick seems so happy when he’s there and she keeps us updated with lots of pictures & videos! I have no worries that he is well taken care of!”


“We left 4 dogs with Julie, while on a family vacation. They seemed very happy when we picked them up! We also received daily updates and pics of all of them! I would highly recommend her😊”

“Bridget was amazing!!! I would recommend her to everyone! Couldn’t wait to pick up the little ones, but I knew they were safe and sound. Will definitely get Bridget anytime I need a sitter!!!”


“Lisa is great! I had a last minute booking and she was very flexible. Lisa sent pictures and updates while I was gone and put my mind at ease. My dog seems very happy and not stressed at all. Thank you Lisa!”

“Danielle is amazing! She took such great care of our boy. She sent a lot of pictures every day. She kept in contact, excellent communication. She's very pleasant and professional. Her home is very neat and clean. We felt very comfortable leaving our baby with her and will definitely be repeat customers!”

“Daisy had a great first stay with Eloise. She has a nice set up with a ranch house which was helpful because Daisy had an injured leg and Eloise kept her activity limited as needed. Drop off and pickup were very smooth and timely. We’ll definitely book with Eloise again.”

“Tami was friendly and professional. We felt very comfortable after meeting with her, her family and her dogs. She was very sweet to our golden retriever and attentive. She maintained regular connections with little messages and photos each day. Would love to use her again for a future stay.”

“This was my first time using Sharon and all went well. She sent photos and videos of Lily and took Lily on frequent walks. She was quick to respond to my texts. I really appreciate Sharon’s responsible and professional nature. And when I picked up Lily at the end of her stay, Sharon gifted her a bag of treats and toys and a thank you note! I will definitely use Sharon again.”
“Iman made me feel comfortable while away for 7 days. I received videos and pictures and my Jax looked really happy while he stayed with her. I intend to book her again.”

“Mariah was great! She goes above and beyond. She was very accommodating and stayed in communication with me during my dog’s boarding time there. Her love for pets really shines through and I’m so happy I’ve met her. 😊”

“Desiree was amazing with our 4 year old terrier mix and high energy 5 month old puppy! We were nervous with our puppy who hadn’t been in boarding before, and she was great with keeping us posted on their behavior & sending daily pics/updates. Our dogs came home exhausted from having so much fun at their time away. She was also great with our 4 y.o. who preferred her personal space around the younger dogs there. We will absolutely use her again!”

“A true life saver! We attempted to keep our dog at a pet friendly hotel while we went to a concert, but Noodle decided she was going to let the hotel guests know how much she missed us by barking. We thought for sure we'd have to listen to the concert from the parking lot or just not go all together. Kathy responded very quickly, super nice and accommodating . Thank you again!”
