Our dog Cupcake seemed very happy and really seemed to enjoy her time with Vivian. Would not hesitate to use her boarding service again. Thanks!

Vivian and her son were great with our anxious dog. I was worried about sending Maple as it was the first time she stayed with someone we didn’t know. We would highly recommend them and plan to use them again. They sent picture updates, allowed us to meet them before, and were great about accommodating her special diet.

Vivian was on schedule and responsive. She provided updates and pictures. She and her family were welcoming and loving with Lilly. Thank you to Vivian for sharing her beautiful home and yard with our Lilly.

It was my first time boarding my dog, Sneakers with any sitter, but I'm so happy that my initial choice was with Vivian and her son, Jonah! Sneakers absolutely loved his stay with them to the point that he thought he found his newfound home. They treated him like family and made him feel so comfortable. During my travels from across state lines and running into traffic here and there, Vivian was exceptional with accommodating pick-up times. She and her son are sweet and kind people who truly love dogs! She sent me updated photos of Sneakers within every hour or so. She made me feel reassurance knowing that Sneakers was actively enjoying himself. Vivian and Jonah are two people you can trust to take care of your furry loved ones. Thank you again!

We’ve been leaving our babies with Vivian and her family for the last couple of months when we go away on weekend or week long trips. I feel that they are well taken care of and am happy I’ve found a little second home for my puppies

Schedule

Jonah is going to college so I am only taking return customers. Our schedule varies but pups will be alone during most days of the work week. My husband and I will give them lots of love other than that. Weekends are preferable during the school year. During the summer, we are flexible and home during the day.

Safety, trust & environment

I have medium sized fenced in yard. I take morning and evening walks. There is a nice open field right by my house if a dog requires more exercise.

A typical day

I will go on walks in the neighborhood. If your dog is able, they can run along side while I ride my bike. I will play fetch or any other activity your dog likes.
