We had an excellent experience with Alex. Coco stayed with him for almost a month, and we couldn’t have asked for better care. He was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about making coco feel comfortable and at home. We received regular updates and pictures which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Coco was happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. We would absolutely book with him again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.

Alex took great care of Stitch! Lots of photo and video updates of them playing in the backyard. Was also very communicative and flexible. Would definitely rebook with Alex again!

Alex and Melinda boarded our dog Zero, a pit bull mix, for the very first time, and as nervous pet parents we were honestly anxious about leaving him. From the start, they were incredibly reassuring, communicative, and caring. They sent us daily updates and pictures that gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear Zero was not only well cared for, but genuinely having an amazing time. We couldn’t have asked for a better first boarding experience and would absolutely trust them with Zero again!

I had a wonderful experience! It was the first time my dog stayed in a different home, so he was very anxious and didn’t want to eat at the beginning. However, he was incredibly patient, kind, and attentive, and he was able to help my dog feel comfortable and start eating again. That meant so much to me. He also sent me photos and videos every day, which gave me a lot of peace of mind and made me feel connected while I was away. I truly appreciate his care and dedication. I highly recommend him and will definitely trust him again in the future.
