“Brian's been great with our pups. I love how quickly he responds to requests, and the notes he leaves about the visit! I can feel confident that my dogs are well taken care of in Brian's care. Thanks for another great visit!”


2. Amy P.

“Amy is truly a dog whisperer! My very barky and unsure husky mix warmed up to her within a few minutes and has been great for all the visits. Our other dog, a little beagle, has been a cuddle machine with her. I would recommend Amy with 10 stars if I could. We are definitely having her back!”

“Elle was great! Super responsive and send me photos each time they checked in on our pups. I would absolutely use Elle again! Highly recommended.”




11. Jackson A.

“Jackson is a lifesaver with our dogs! We have a 10 mo. aus-shepherd mix with aggression and fear issues (wont allow strangers to come near us, or into the house or backyard). After a few visits with Jackson our dog is now so happy to see him each time! Jackson is one of the very few people our dog allows into our home, as well as to hang out and play with him and leash him for walks (if anyone has dealt with an aggressive dog they know the struggles, so to find someone we can count on for our pup is priceless). I would wholeheartedly recommend Jackson!”


12. Jara H.
