We did boarding with Mel for the first time this weekend after multiple days of daycare in the past! As expected, everything was great! Reviewed multiple photos of Cannoli throughout the day and he seemed very happy his entire time there! Would highly recommend!

Bryce was great with Alfie! It took Alfie some time to settle in which made me a bit nervous but Bryce ensured me that he had things under control and Alfie would be okay. He was even patient with me because I was worried! Bryce was also very accommodating when I had the dates incorrect due to the time zone. He quickly responded and modified the date. He was great! Thank you Bryce!

I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter for my two dogs. I received regular updates with photos throughout the day, and it was clear they were happy, relaxed, and well cared for. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands.

Pretzel really seemed to enjoy her stay with Danielle and Jones, (Danielle's golden retriever). Danielle was very prompt in her communications and flexible when we asked about possible changes to our pick up and drop off times. She sent pictures of Pretzel each day and kept us updated on how her behavior was throughout the stay. We will definitely be boarding with Danielle again soon!

My 1 year old Cocker Spaniel, Enzo loved staying with Yulia. She took great care of him for 1 week. It’s great that she also does doggy day care and Enzo had the chance to safely socialize with other dogs his size. I will definitely be booking her again in the future. Highly recommended. Very communicative and attentive. Thank you!

Mary was WONDERFUL. I left my dog with her for 12 days, the longest I have ever been away from my dog. I had nothing to be nervous about as Mary kept me in the loop the whole time I was away. She was great at providing physical activity with my dog which is a huge part of her well being! They have a lot of yard space outside which is great for running around and made me feel comfortable! She was professional and timely with answering any of my questions about my dog. Was receptive to any special requests I had made for my dog as well which was great! I would 100% book with her again if I am going away! Also she sends photo updates which I LOVED!

About: Dog and cat CPR certified. My experience ranges from puppies to seniors dogs. Each dog has their own personality and needs, so I will match my sessions with them accordingly. Currently in school. I have plenty of time during the day to spend with your fur babies. Your time is valuable, so I will be punctual to each walking session. I will not be taking care of any pets at my home at this time. However, I do have 2 beautiful fur babies (pictures above).

Absolutely marvellous! Electra and Crescent were an absolute delight to meet, and they treated our peewees with such care. Our original plans were for just boarding our little dog (which they did armirably!), but we couldn’t find anyone to care for our cats, or to provide medication to one with diabetes. Wellsiree, they went above and beyond, and kept us up to date with daily updates in photo and video. Our little dog adored staying with them, she got lots of cuddles and lots of exercise! And our cats were so well looked after they were spoiled rotten. We can’t say enough great things about this wonderful couple. They’re our first choice for excellent care and attention of our peewees.

Peanellopy is so professional and sweet! She is also extremely communicative and responsive. My dog is older (16, 5 years old) and kind of set in his ways. He doesn't feel comfortable with everyone, and also has some sight and hearing loss. He absolutely LOVED Peanellopy and came back home HAPPY! She was very attentive to him, and kept me informed with texts and photos, which kept me at ease knowing he's safe and comfortable and also not causing her any inconvenience. I would definitely be asking Peanellopy to take care of Jugsy again!!

Rebecca and Christopher took such wonderful care of my dog, Parker, while I was away! From the moment I met them, it was clear that they were both kind & down to earth people. Rebecca kept me updated and sent plenty of pictures of Parker playing and having a great time with Panda! Seeing Parker happy and comfortable made all the difference while I was away. I’m incredibly grateful for the love and attention they gave Parker, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again. Highly recommend!!

Christin was amazing! I was a little worried because my puppy (Kiwi) is still very timid and suspicious of strangers, but Christin was very understanding and confident, that it was clear she's worked with difficult dogs before. She kept us informed of all the progress and we know Kiwi ended up relaxing and having a great time. Totally recommended and would totally rebook. Thank you!

There are truly no words for how perfect my experience having Kathy watch my 8 year old 60lb golden doodle. He has separation anxiety and actually pulled us to her house after our initial meet and greet because he loved her dogs and house so much. Kathy was extremely communicative and proactively sent pics and videos of my dog living his best life. I am extremely skeptical of all dog sitters and Kathy has shown us that good people exist and can give you the peace of mind you need to leave your fur baby. Additionally Kathy dropped off and picked up Boe from our wedding ceremony which is above and beyond what you’d expect from a sitter. 20/10 stars we will always remember how amazing Kathy and her boyfriend are

Melanie took wonderful care of Roo for five days. Despite some bladder issues that started at the beginning of his stay and a late-in-the-game stomach issue, Melanie's sweet nature and compassionate care helped reassure me that he was always in good hands. Pippa, her 10-year old pup, is such a sweetie, and excellent company for Roo. Thank you, Melanie and Pippa, from Roo and me!
