John and his whole family did a great job hosting my cats. Gave constant updates, and even handled one of my cats who was being difficult with a lot of gentleness and consideration. They also gave my cats a little spa day with their steam brush. Drop off and pick up were seamless. Would definitely book again and recommend to anyone who needs to leave their cats with someone while on vacation.

John and his family were absolutely AMAZING!! I couldn’t be more grateful for the amazing care this wonderful family gave to my dog while I was away. From the very start, they were warm, welcoming, and made sure to get all the details about my dog’s routine, likes, and needs. It was clear that they genuinely love animals and took the time to make my dog feel at home. She particularly loved their son!! I received regular updates and photos, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust them again with her and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter:)

John does a great job with our two dogs. He has watched them for a couple years now! They are 10 & 11 years old and he caters to their needs! He even is able to watch them on last minute requests.

My wife works from home on fridays and mondays and we are home on the weekends to all spend time with the boarding animals. We look forward to lending a helping hand.

Safety, trust & environment

We would treat the pets as our own, we are a very pet friendly family. My kids love pets and we also are teaching them responsibilities of raising animals, so they would be helping us out in boarding the animals.

A typical day

Large back yard for running, also low traffic neighborhood for dog walks. Lots of time to play with kids in spacious back yard. We will also have swimming if the dog is into that during summer when pool is open.

I need to know if dogs get along with other dogs, if they get along with cats and also must be good with kids as I have 2 small children, which my kids would never be with the dogs alone in supervised by and adult.
