Drop-In Visits • Sep 03, 2026

Dennis sent us pictures from each visit. Our dogs absolutely loved him. Even our small dog got in his lap and snuggled up to him and she never does that with anyone but my wife! And he's a great guy.

Sadie had a great evening with Dennis and Adriana. Dennis does everything possible to make sure Sadie feels safe and comfortable. Sadie enjoys interacting with the other dogs there. I feel fortunate to find someone that Sadie is comfortable with since she is an older dog and sometimes needs extra attention and reassurance.

Doggy Day Care • Jul 28, 2026

Sadie had a wonderful time with Dennis, Adriana and the other dogs. She seems very comfortable with Dennis and Adriana. They have the calm atmosphere that Sadie needs since she is an older dog. We look forward to using Dennis for our dog sitting needs.

We booked last minute due to unexpected travel. Dennis was incredibly accommodating - he was on a cruise and responded to our request! His home is beautiful and clean. He took excellent care of Coco - she was safe and happy. She tends to be a bit anxious but showed no signs of anxiety when we picked her up. We are sure his calm manner helped make her feel comfortable. He sent numerous pictures which helped us feel at ease having to leave her. We would definitely book with Dennis again!!!
