“Absolutely the best. I was nervous about leaving my dog with anyone but family...but his energy is too much for my elderly parents. I lined up a couple of kennels, but was really looking for that loving family type atmosphere. We found it with Lori! She was patient with my indecisiveness and even allowed a play date in advance of his overnight boarding. He loves her, her dogs, her family, and has made great friends with the other dogs in her care. Photos and videos were sent to us throughout his stay making me feel even more at ease and happy with our decision. Can't recommend and thank her enough!!”
“Josh was amazing! We could not have left Hank in better hands. Hank is an older dog and Josh was so patient and caring with him making sure that he had a place to spend time alone when he was done playing with the other dogs. Josh sent us updates and pictures which helped ease our mind since this was Hank's first stay with Josh, but it won't be the last.”
“Elizabeth and Philip provided the best possible care for my senior dog. I highly recommend them and would have no hesitation in trusting them with my fur baby again.”
“Ebony was great at communicating and updating us about our dog! She was very understanding of his puppy energy, and had a great yard and fellow dog for him to play with. We would love to book again!”
“Grace took great care of our pups! The dogs loved playing around in her yard. She also took extra care of my dog that had an irritated spot on his nose. Highly recommend!”
“Leah did a fabulous job taking care of our dog. She sent many fabulous photos and I could tell everything was going great. We will definitely be booking with Leah again!”
“Shelby was incredibly flexible and responded quickly when we needed someone to watch our pups for a last minute funeral. We will definitely use her again.”
“Maggie loves staying with Heather and Remi! She gets to play and run and have such a fun time. Heather is so friendly and communicative. We will definitely book with Heather again in the future!”
“Christina is professional, gracious, and a true dog lover. When I made last minute changes on dropoff/pickup details Christina was accommodating and understanding. My dog came home tired and happy from what I think was a great summer vacation for her!”
“Beth was an amazing sitter for our pup. She was easy to coordinate with on the front and back end and gave frequent updates with pictures and details keeping us up to date on everything our pup. Will definitely be back with Beth for our next getaway!”
“Amazing!!! They took such good care of my baby boy! Took him on walks and snuggled with him. Treated my pup like he was apart of their family! 10/10 they are awesome”
“I’m a first time dog owner and this was the first time I had to leave him behind for a trip. Stephanie put all of my worries at ease and provided exceptional care for my pup, Oscar. Our meet and greet went great and Oscar was so excited when we pulled into her driveway for the actual drop-off. Stephanie was very understanding of typical puppy things, sent plenty of photos and videos, which was greatly appreciated, and Oscar was happy and healthy when I collected him. I will absolutely reach out to Stephanie when I need services again.”
“She take a very good care of my dog, always send pictures to keep me updated and ask questions about the dog to make they’re as comfortable as they can. She even gives my dog a shower before he leave. She also pay attention to how my dog eat and notice that he’s only eat if you mix his food. I would definitely recommend her and be back next time.”
About: I work from home so your little ones won’t be by themselves, at least for not very long. I grew up on a farm with every animal possible around me so I’m used to it all. I work from home. I take my dog on a long morning walk in Cherokee park to start her day, throw balls in the fenced in dog park to use some energy, and take her out every 3 hrs or so to make sure she’s comfortable. My dog is like one of us. Well, sort of. We don’t feed her human food. Aside from that, we allow her on our furniture and she can move about freely as she wants. Your little one will have the same treatment.
