“Jill and her family took good care of Stella while we were gone for 2 weeks. This is the 2nd time Stella has stayed with Jill and her family. She was so excited to stay and play with the family. Jill sent pictures and told us how Stella was doing. We will use Jill and her loving family again.”


“We would use Donna again, Portia was happy and well taken care of. We were sent picture updates and felt safe leaving her there. Portia also made a few new friends during her visit :)”


“Anja was fantastic with our yellow lab and took such good care of her while we were gone. She communicated daily and sent pictures and videos. She was very easy to communicate with and quick to respond. Absolutely recommend her as a dog sitter!”


“This was our first time leaving our 8 month old puppy. She had a great time at Melissa's. Melissa updated us throughout the week and took great care of our pup. I hope Melissa will watch Polly again!”


“Roger was wonderful! Friendly, flexible and accommodating. His place was set up well for big dogs, with plenty of indoor and outdoor space and new friends to sniff each day. Roger is genuinely really good with doggos and you can tell he actually enjoys their company! Definitely will be back!”


“Sarah and Jason were amazing! We are first timers a little nervous about leaving our little guys, but were quickly put at ease. They sent timely updates and pictures and took great care. Highly recommend!”



“Ann was wonderful! She accepted a somewhat last-minute request to board Lizzy, my senior dog. Although Lizzy is anxious and shy, she eventually felt at home and grew comfortable with Ann. I really appreciate how Ann kept me well informed of my dog’s status and sent several photos. She administered Lizzy’s meds and walked her twice a day. It was a great situation for my dog. I would definitely board Lizzy with Ann again.”


“Natalie was amazing and my two dogs did great!! The communication was fantastic and received daily (or more) updates and pictures of the boys. I will definitely use her again! Highly recommended!!”


“Alexis did an amazing job watching my doggo for me over the weekend while I was out of town! She sent multiple updates daily which included pictures of my dog having a great time:) I never had any doubts as to his safety and wellbeing. If you need your dog boarded I cannot recommend Alexis enough!”



“I felt comfortable leaving my dogs with Katherine. She was extremely flexible so we could have both our dogs stay with her. We need someone who is home nearly 24/7 because out dog is extremely anxious when left alone. We can finally take a family trip without having to worry about finding the perfect sitter.”


“Luke and Kimberly took excellent care of my dog. They sent pictures and even made him homemade dog treats! I would definitely recommend them and I am planning to use them again.”


“Kassi took great care of my two pups! She went above and beyond, spending extra time to help my dogs (and me) feel comfortable with them staying with her. They stayed for two weeks and she kept me updated regularly. I was very pleased with how unstressed they appeared when I picked them up.”


“It was my first time boarding Oliver and was a bit nervous to do so but Amy was great! I met her before hand so Oliver would get introduced to the new environment. I came back from vacation and Oliver was so happy and fluffy tailed so I know he was treated like a prince! I will definitely book with Amy again if she’s available!”


“Thank you Robert & Heidy for taking such good care of my little Girl! I felt very secure and content leaving her with you all and it sounds like she was well loved on and snuggled. That's her favorite thing, so next time she needs to stay home, I will certainly contact you all again! Thank you again, June Rutter”


“Brooke took excellent care of our Kody. She asked questions and made sure we were comfortable with her setup. Brooke kept us updated over the long weekend and shared pics each day. Kody came home happy and tired. We would definitely recommend her to others!!”


“Rhonda provided excellent care for our three dogs while we were out of town. I really appreciate the updates and pictures letting us know how they were doing. We have an anxious dog and it was so good to know he was safe and getting along with everyone. I was so grateful when our pickup time ran late, Rhonda was flexible with our schedule so it worked out great. Will definitely see if Rhonda is available for our next trip!”


“Kelly did an amazing caring for my dog!! She kept me updated everyday with pictures and videos. She cared for her as it was her own fur baby! Definitely will use her again for future! Thank you”
