“Michele saved my life, I always take my dog everywhere but for obvious reasons I couldn't go to Cedar Point. I contacted her and she quickly said yes. She walked her and took care of her until the afternoon. She sent me photos so I could check her status with my dog. Highly recommended. Thanks Michele.”
“Thank you for always taking good care of Ruby, she absolutely loves her stays and is so happy when she realizes where she has arrived to when we pull in.”
“Christiana was great! Our two dogs seemed to enjoy their time there & especially loved being able to run around in the backyard! She sent us pictures and updates throughout and was very responsive when I checked in with her!”
“This was our 3rd time using David to care for our fur baby, and we can't see ourselves using anyone else. Each time, David and his family went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and informed during Wrigley's visit. He treats Wrigley as if he is a member of the family, which puts our minds at ease each time we leave him. The communication is always WONDERFUL and Wrigley comes home happy and tuckered out. If a million star rating was an option........David would definitely get it from us!”

“I highly recommend Derek to watch your dog while you are away! He took great care of my precious dog Lola! He made sure she ate well, exercised a lot and felt comfortable in his home. Derek provided daily photos and videos to me that calmed my fears of leaving her and being so far away. His dogs are very friendly and welcomed Lola into their environment. I really think she enjoyed her vacation more than me and had such a good time! She has been sleeping the next day away much like I feeling like doing!”

“Steffani took such great care of our puppy, Dusty this past weekend!! We had to find a sitter for him last minute while on vacation because our rental property was not very dog friendly. Steffani was actually watching my sister-in-law’s puppy at the same time so Steffani made a last minute exception for us and agreed to take Dusty the same day!! I’m so grateful for her!! She helped potty train him, gave him lots of loves and play time, and even let dusty sleep with her at night. Her dogs are such wonderful hosts as well and I’m so glad that our puppy had this opportunity to socialize with such friendly dogs. She was extremely communicative, and sent lots of updates, pictures, and videos. She is such a kind and trustworthy human being and we will definitely book a stay with her for Dusty next time we are in town ❤️❤️🙏🙏”
