“Nicole took such wonderful care of Dobby! She's a busy girl and Nicole was wonderfully communicative and kept me updated. It made the boarding process for me so much easier and less stressful!”


“We have sent our dog to board at Michael's several times now. This was a 3-week stay and our dog was well cared for and loved. Michael always responds quickly to our messages. The care is professional. There's lots of space outdoor for them to play and explore. This is a repeated booking, and we'll send our dog here again. Highly recommend!”

“Sandra was wonderful to work with! She was easy to communicate with, and I knew Otis was in great hands. He came home happy and relaxed after his stay. ✨”


“John did a great job with our Enzo dog. He is obviously a dog person! You can tell by the way he talks with and connects with dogs. Since this was the first time our dog boarded with someone, we wondered how he would do, but he was totally comfortable with John. By the way, John sent pictures to put us at ease, but also showed that our dog was happy and comfortable.”


“When we dropped her off for this stay, Mabel ran right into the house when we arrived and didn't even look back. She was so excited to see her friends. That a pretty great review 😊”


“Karl and his dogs are very welcoming. Karl’s yard is well suited for the dogs with a large space and a fence. Karl communicates timely and goes out of his way to ensure all goes well. All the dogs got along well and our dogs adjusted well on both sends of their stay.”


“Heidi was awesome! We chose her to give my little westie the most homelike environment while we traveled. At home he is allowed on furniture and to sleep in the bed so we loved that Heidi allowed the same. He’s also an old guy so we loved that she takes only 1 dog at a time. She was super communicative/responsive and sent lots of photo updates. Thanks for loving on our fur baby, Heidi!!”


“Forough and Amir were awesome! Baloo got a playmate in Ruby and he lioked so happy. We got daily updates and that helped know he is doing fine. We will definitely work with Forough and Amir again! Definitely recommend!”


“Monica was excellent! Truley went above and beyond to keep us informed of how our pup was doing and make sure he had as good a stay as possible with her and her family. Thanks so much for taking such good care of Maui while we were away!”


“Ali provided our dog, Arthur, excellent care. His love of dogs is very apparent the moment he stooped to greet Arthur. His dog, Hasti, is a sweet friendly dog and also welcomed our dog. We feel very fortunate to have found Ali and highly recommend him.”



“10/10 recommend boarding your pups with Julia. She is quick to respond and will send you updates/pics of your dog so you don't have to worry. I will definitely be using her service in the future!”
