My family planned a vacation in the area and we needed a pet sitter for our dog to allow us to visit some places. Joyce maintained good communication and she made sure to give Nina many cuddles and love to make her feel safe while we were away. If you’re in the area or live in the area and you want your pet to be safe and taken care of I recommend you Joyce. Thank you again!

Couldn’t be happier. Bailey was so happy to see them as this was our second time to board with them. Makes my heart happy.

Joyce and her husband watched our Bailey for three weeks. We were nervous leaving her for that long. With the pictures and communication they sent we were soon at ease. We know she was well kept and happy during her stay. She was happy to see us sure but we could tell she loves them too. We will definitely use their services again. If we could give them more than five stars we would.

Tina and her husband were wonderful caretakers for our sweet terrier Lilly. They were so welcoming when we got there. Their setup was perfect. They had a fenced back yard. They also took her on walks, brushed her, doted on her, let her sleep with them and made her feel so at home that when we came to pick her up she wanted us to come in instead of running out to the car as usual. She wanted all her peeps to be together. That is true testimony to the wonderful experience she had. Tina also kept us updated every couple of days with photos and gave us a full report when we came to pick up. Our girl had no problems so no more reporting was required. We were delighted with their services!
