This is the 4th or 5th time that Kosmo has stayed with Nicole & David, and she just loves it. She's always so excited when we pull up to their house. Nicole & David are terrific - we are so lucky to have found them!

Deborah was outstanding. We were nervous about leaving our 2 year old dog for the first time, knowing he'd never spent time apart from us and that he is a bit of a handful. Deborah was attentive, loving and patient with him. She sent us regular updates, which really put our mind at ease. It was such a blessing to know that he was safe and tended in her care. We are very grateful to her and would definitely turn to her in the future.

Kristen and her family helped us out over a weekend. Her young girls have a lot of energy but she kept and eye on our Leo to be sure they were good with him. He sleeps a lot and they let him do that. All evidence was that Leo was cared for.

Betsy took great care of my puppy, Bramble! She happily did it knowing that Bramble had sutures from a recent surgery that required extra care. She worked with her on house manners, crate training, and even taught her how to shake! I will definitely be booking with Betsy again.

Excellent care! I was really happy that Jie watched my sweet old bichon, Bear. He has separation anxiety and she did a great job spending so much time with him. I could tell from pictures, videos, and frequent communication that he was happy, calm, and content with Jie and her family. I was able to enjoy my trip more knowing that he was well taken care of and happy. I also felt confident that she would reach out to address any concerns. My dog was very lucky to spend time in their peaceful, dog-safe, happy home.

Kyle took such good care of my baby Reba! Kyle had high communication with me regarding an ear infection that my pup was struggling with and even took her to the vet when she needed to be seen. My pup was at Kyle’s for over a week and had the happiest demeanor when I picked her up. It was clear to me that she was treated well and had a good time. I’ll definitely use Kyle again for Reba’s care.

River is the best! I fancy myself a crazy dog mom, and River is very attentive to my dog’s personality and quirks, took extra special care with my last dog when she got elderly and had some special needs, and always sends videos of my dog having fun when she’s there. My dog(s) have stayed here several times over the years and I always have the peace of mind that they are safe and happy while I’m gone!

We have had a really great experience with Barbara! We left our dog Frankie with her during our 19 day stay in Arizona! We got daily updates on how she was doing and I really felt that she was in good hands! It was very easy and fast to communicate with Barbara as well, before the booking and during her stay. We always received quick replies so that was great. She was very flexible with pick up times since we arrived fairly late at night. So we have already booked our dogs next stay with her for another upcoming trip!

We are so happy to have found Remy and Kevin to watch our dog when traveled out of town!! They are responsive, welcoming, and their genuine love for animals and care really shines. We are more comfortable traveling now that we can leave our Pablo in their loving home.

This was our second time boarding Maya with John and Joanna. We were so lucky to find an opening in their schedule and we didn’t hesitate to have Maya board with them. They are incredibly warm and loving people and you can tell they really care about your dog. They took our pup on walks and gave her lots of outside time and took such good care of her! They send us such great pictures and two videos of them feeding her cucumbers which made our hearts melt. We feel so safe and comfortable having them take care of our dog and know we will be back! :) thank you!!

We needed a last minute dog sitter to watch our pup for several days and reached out to Steven B. He was easy to work with and responsive to Vinny’s needs. We got regular updates and photos. We could see he was settled and enjoying his adventures. It was great to know he was so well taken care of. Would highly recommend and will book again!

Kari and Brian are absolutely the best!!! They cared for Jackson (our high energy husky mix) for 4 nights as though he was truly part of their family. They walked him multiple times per day and sent photos and updates regularly to reassure us while we were away. They also brought Jackson home for us the night of our return. We HIGHLY recommend them for dog care! 🐕

Our dog was SO well taken care of by Brenna. It's obvious that Brenna loves dogs - our dog benefited from plenty of exercise, affection, and fun. Lastly, communication was excellent. We hope that we'll be able to leave our pup with Brenna again the next time we leave town.
