We couldn’t have asked for a better experience for Salvato’s first longer stay away from us. He’s a big, sensitive boy with a very specific routine, a raw diet and supplements, and he can be reactive on walks - so leaving him for five nights is not something we take lightly. Diane was incredibly thoughtful about following all of his care instructions while also making him feel completely at home. The photo updates honestly made us laugh because he looked so thoroughly spoiled and happy - lounging comfortably, getting lots of cuddles and attention, enjoying the yard and clearly feeling like part of the family. She even managed some challenging distractions with him on walks! By the end of the stay, he looked like he had settled into his own little vacation routine. When we came to pick him up, he seemed almost surprised to see us! What meant the most to me was the peace of mind. I’m usually someone who worries when I’m away, and this was one of the very few vacations where I genuinely felt at ease knowing he was safe, understood, loved and being so well cared for. Being able to relax without constantly worrying about him was an enormous gift. We are incredibly grateful to have found a family we can trust with him and, even more importantly, a place where Salvato himself seems genuinely happy and comfortable. Thank you Diane & Sunny for treating our boy like one of your own. ❤️🐾

This was Salvato’s very first overnight boarding experience, and I couldn’t have asked for a more welcoming, dog-loving family. Diane & Sunny have a lot of experience with dogs - they took the time to understand his routines and followed his care instructions carefully, including feeding his raw diet and being mindful of his barrier & leash reactivity. Diane sent thoughtful photo updates, communicated well throughout his stay, and it was clear they all genuinely cared about making him feel comfortable and treated him like a member of their family. He came home healthy, relaxed, and settled, which was exactly what we had hoped for. Salvato can be a bit more work than the average dog, so finding people we trust is incredibly important. We feel so lucky to have found such a warm, kind, and welcoming family who clearly cared for him as if he were one of their own. We’re very grateful for the attentive care Diane & Sunny provided - Salvato’s first boarding experience couldn’t have gone better and we have complete peace of mind for his longer stay with them next month. Highly recommended!

Lucan enjoyed his stay with Diane very much. Diane helped Lucan feel welcome in her home and ensured he got fed and went for regular walks. Diane forwarded many photos capturing Lucan in adorable situations such as when he was scratching his back. Lol! I am definitely bringing Lucan back when I need a dog sitter again.

Diane and her family were so warm and welcoming to our Pom mix, Remy, while we were out of town for the weekend. Remy can be a bit shy with new people, however he was instantly at home with Diane. Diane kept us updated with photos while we were away and Remy had a great time enjoying her backyard for fetch. Diane was also very patient and understanding with the some of Remy’s quirks (he’s a rescue so can be timid/ nervous). Her experience with and love of dogs of all types really shows and we’re so thankful we chose to puppy-sit with her. We would highly recommend booking with Diane when your fur baby needs a home away from home.

Anything thing that will help make your dog comfortable and as close to their usual routine would be helpful. Key words or phrases, games they like, do they need their space or like to cuddle would be great to know.
