Ivy was wonderful and such a life-saver! Our boys were so happy to see her and it was such a relief to know they were well taken care of while we were out for the day. We will absolutely be booking with Ivy again!

I felt very comfortable leaving my pup with Ivy. It was nice knowing my fur baby was being cared for all day in a nice home environment.

Our Hooper was comfortable as soon as she walked in. Ivy took amazing care of her and Hooper had fun playing with another pup and ignoring the cats. Can't thank Ivy enough for cover us last minute...she's the best!!!

Ivy took very good care of our 1.5 year old poodle mix while we were on an 8 day cruise. She answered text messages promptly while we were away.
