“Victoria was absolutely wonderful to work with. She sent pictures and videos of our dog and my son's cat every day during our vacation. Both were happy to see us when we picked them up and it was obvious they were well cared for. VIctoria was immensely patient with our Irish Setter puppy who has lots of energy and my son's cat who is a recluse. 100% will be using her again for out of town trips!”

“Tia loved my Dash like he was her own. Dash was very well taken care of and loved. I received daily updates with pictures and videos. Tia is also very accommodating. Would highly reccomend to everyone!”

“Breanna was absolutely lovely! Zinnia had gotten sick on the way to their home and Breanna was still okay with watching over her! She kept me updated the entire time I was gone, sent lots of pictures, and followed my instructions to a tee (including the extra ones I added last minute to help Zinnia feel better)! Zinnia got used to her very quick and had a wonderful time playing, lounging, and going for walks together!”

“Our older cat is afraid of her shadow and keeps her distance from people she doesn’t know. Audrey was patient and gentle with her. She sent me pictures and notes every day. I like that she works from home so your pet is not left alone very often. And her adorable and very friendly kitten is happy to be a playmate or can be kept separate if needed. Give Audrey a try. You won’t be disappointed.”

“Athena was very happy when I picked her up, It was like she was on vacation while I was gone. I will definitely be having Adrienne watch Athena again.”

“Our schedule was erratic and included my mistake in scheduling. Sima and her family were gracious hosts and worked with our schedule. I received updates on how our doggo was doing everyday. It has been a pleasure working with them, I would definitely consider them next time we are in town.”

“The communication before and during the stay was excellent. It was the first time Nelia kept my pet and I received an update on the first night that Princess was adapting well: it was comforting to know it was going well. Upon pickup Nelia shared some specifics about my pet's stay and all of my pets things were together and orderly. Both the drop off and pickup was smooth. Thanks Nelia and I will definitely use your services again!”

“Adam did a great job caring for my dog. He provided them with a lot of exercise, followed special instructions exactly, and also sent frequent updates and photos.”


“Courtney is wonderful with my dogs. I can always go away and feel comfortable leaving them with. I appreciate every thing she does for them and I know they will be safe and well taken care of.”

“Tamara was an excellent sitter for my little dog! I will definitely book her in the future! I'm not sure my dog even wanted to come home. She was comfortable there from the get go! Tamara also went above and beyond when my dog grabbed a chicken bone thrown in the grass.”

“Justin was just fabulous with my corgi terrier mix Monty! He is communicative and conscientious and just a super nice person. He sent wonderful pics and informative and helpful updates. I felt completely comfortable leaving Monty with Justin and cannot recommend him highly enough. Five stars!”

“Raeann is truly the best. She cares for Bronn as if he were her own. She always sends lots of updates and pictures (which as anxious dog mom I appreciate immensely). I could not recommend her enough and Bronn is looking forward his next visit!”

“Great experience boarding my dog for a long weekend, and would definitely book again! Appreciated the photo updates and flexibility with pickup/dropoff. I know my dog was well cared for and had a great time.”


“Ali was fantastic. Great communication and photos which confirmed that Rosie was very happy! It was clear she really enjoyed having Rosie which made me even more comfortable. We will definitely use Ali again.”

“Lindsay and her family were wonderful and accommodating. They were also very flexible with my pickup time. They and their dog Murphy took great care of Sadie. I will certainly use Lindsay again to take care of Sadie next time I’m in the area. I highly recommend.”

“Ava was wonderful to work with - would highly recommend!! She boarded my two rescue girlies for a week and made sure they had everything they needed to settle in quickly. She gave me consistent picture updates, always answered quickly when I checked in about something specific, and was very flexible about the reservation. She administered medicine twice a day for one of my girls and followed their daily schedule. Most importantly, I know they were loved and treated like if they were her own pets 💗 Will definitely be rebooking!”

“Amanda and Jack were absolutely amazing! My girl, Onyx, had an issue with her elbow, and they handled the situation with incredible care, compassion, and professionalism. They kept me updated with photos throughout her stay, which gave me tremendous peace of mind, and they even took her on a nature hike so she could enjoy some time outdoors. It's clear they genuinely care about the animals they look after. I highly recommend Amanda's services and wouldn't hesitate to trust them with Onyx again!”

Damara was amazing, and I can’t recommend her enough! I am always anxious to leave my pup behind, but I didn’t worry about her at all while we were gone for 10 days. Damara set up a time for Lola to visit before the trip to make sure she was comfortable when we left. She also provided the perfect amount of updates and photos. I wouldn’t be surprised if Lola is annoyed she had to come back home after getting so many walks and playtime and love from Damara and her daughter. Lola has a human sister at home, so having a kid who loves and cares for dogs well was perfect for her! It was obvious that Lola was happy, comfortable, and well cared for by both of them. I can’t say enough about our experience with Damara, and I’m so glad to have found her! We will definitely use her again in the future!

Apoorva was excellent! My older dog was a first time boarder with Apoorva and I felt confident in the booking from our first messages. She and her husband exceeded my expectations in the care they showed. They really provided such an excellent home away from home for my little girl. She was able to maintain her normal schedule and routines and got so comfortable there, played fetch outside and inside too! I got regular photo updates and any symptoms or questions about her needs were brought up to me swiftly. I would definitely recommend and would love to book with Apoorva again as a need arises!

Tia is the best. She is very responsive with questions and updates on your pet. I usually get very anxious about leaving my dog with someone, and I’m usually very selective, but with Tia I can trust my animal is taken care of. My dog stayed with her and I couldn’t be happier with her. Just from pictures I could tell my dog was having a wonderful time and vey happy. I feel Tia goes above and beyond with pets and has a real passion for caring for animals. I will be rebooking with Tia and would recommend her to anyone.

Ava was wonderful to work with - would highly recommend!! She boarded my two rescue girlies for a week and made sure they had everything they needed to settle in quickly. She gave me consistent picture updates, always answered quickly when I checked in about something specific, and was very flexible about the reservation. She administered medicine twice a day for one of my girls and followed their daily schedule. Most importantly, I know they were loved and treated like if they were her own pets 💗 Will definitely be rebooking!
