Helen did a great job of looking after my dog and keeping me updated with pictures and all. My dog came back happy and stress free. I'd rebook with her anytime!

Helen was fantastic! So grateful for her taking care of Lucy over the holiday. My sister in law is very allergic to our dog, so this was a huge help!

Helen was so helpful when I was stuck in a challenging situation being out of the country for an extended period of time. She coordinated to pick up my dog from another sitter, sent lots of pics, and gave me tremendous peace of mind!

Helen is fantastic and I couldn't be happier with Shelby's boarding. She was very pleasant to work with and super engaged. I received frequent proactive updates with pictures, and Helen was very responsive to any questions I had. 6 out of 5 star experience!

I have a flexible job and check in a few times a day. I also work from home some days, so there’s always an adult home for TLC and potty breaks.

Safety, trust & environment

I now live in a pet-friendly condo that still offers plenty of comfort and care for your furry friend. While I don’t have a backyard, my dog Onyx and I enjoy daily walks and outdoor time on nearby trails. We look forward to giving your pet lots of love, playtime, and a cozy stay!
