Alex was a fantastic host! His dog Leo was so kind and everyone made Ginger feel right at home. This was a last-minute reservation for me and it was the best for Ginger! Awesome family!!

I’m so grateful to Alex and his wife for taking such amazing care of my dog Cooper over the 4th of July weekend! Cooper is usually very scared of fireworks, so I was nervous about being away, but from the moment I dropped him off, I felt reassured. They sent me so many updates and adorable pictures, which helped ease my worries and let me enjoy my time away knowing he was in great hands. Cooper got plenty of walks and had lots of playtime in the yard, he looked so happy and relaxed in every picture they sent! It’s clear they really cared about his comfort and well-being. Overall, Alex and his wife were fantastic, and Cooper is definitely excited to visit again. I’m so happy to have found a safe, loving place for my pup to stay!

Alex and his wife were wonderful carers, I would definitely recommend them in looking after your dog(s) - my dog had experienced a lavish vacation while being in Alex & his family's care.

Alex and his wife were the absolute best! Took excellent care of Annie, making her feel right at home, while giving her plenty of opportunities to get her energy out between long walks, outdoor play, and playtime with their adorable golden Leo. Annie can be very anxious at times, so the fact she was able to warm up so quickly to their home and have such a blast speaks volumes to the quality of care they provide. Also sent me regular updates with great photos/videos, couldn’t recommend them more!

Tiger had the best stay. We got constant updates and he came home happy and tired from all the playing. We will definitely be using Alex again!

Alex was wonderful! He sent many photos during my dog's stay, and treated her like his own. Millie came home tired and happy!
