“Our dog had a great stay with Allan and his family. He was flexible, sent daily updates and photos, and our pup came home happy, stress free, and healthy. We would have our dog stay with Allan again anytime.”


“Zurijanne is so amazing just so sweet and loving and that is reflected in her sweet fur babies! My hima has such fun play mates and looked so comfy and happy! She kept me updated and reassured me since it’s my babies first sleepover without me!”

“Janelle is great! Rosie loves to go and spend time running around in the country. Janelle keeps me updated on how Rosie is during her stay. Rosie has open access to a lot of areas on the property.. definitely recommend!”

“Ashley was awesome! Our dogs were very comfortable and she even provided photo/video updates throughout their stay. She treated them like family and we'll definitely use Ashley's services again!”

“I can't recommend Paige enough as a dog watcher! She took exceptional care of my two dogs for a week, and I could tell they were in great hands from the moment I met her. She is incredibly responsible, attentive, and loving, which gave me peace of mind during my time away. She kept me updated with daily photos and texts, showing me how my dogs were doing and even sharing some funny moments. She took the time to learn their routines, ensuring they felt comfortable and at ease. Both dogs were happy and healthy when I returned, and it was clear they had enjoyed their time with her.”

“Mary and Skip are wonderful and caring dog sitters! Jojo loves spending time with them. They give her so much love and attention. We always feel confident that she is well taken care of.”

“Not everyone embraces caring for a German Shepherd but Sandy did. She provided my almost 5 year old boy with a warm embrace and love during his stay with her. He seemed totally at home, happy and content when I picked him up.”


“Cindie is very attentive and detail-oriented, and she made sure we were 100% comfortable about leaving our puppy with her for the weekend. She also was kind enough to send us updates and photos while we were away, which was a really nice touch! I definitely recommend her as a dog-sitter!”

“I recently boarded my dog, Wolfie, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. He was walked every day, and it was clear he had a fantastic time. The picture updates were a wonderful touch; they showed just how happy he was. Jayden and his family who took care of Wolfie was truly wonderful, providing exceptional service and demonstrating a high level of professionalism. The quality of care was excellent, and the price was very affordable for the outstanding service received. Overall, I highly recommend this dog boarding service. Wolfie had a great time, and I appreciate the peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands.”

“Erin was available on very short notice for a holiday weekend for both of our pups. We have to very sweet, happy boys, but they are both big…one being a giant Newfoundland who is full of 1 y/o energy 😉 She was so accommodating and sent us updates and photos so we knew the boys were doing just fine. She was quick to respond and the boys were happy as could be. We would definitely come to Erin for future needs again!”

“Penny was great! She sent many photo updates of our puppies. They had many adventure walks, had time to play in her yard, and they also did some training sessions. We will definitely be back!”

“I can't say enough good about Celene and her puppers! She is super knowledgeable and good with dogs! I can tell that my Charli really liked her! She was well taken care of and I will definitely use her again!”

“Oreo loved Birdie, and I can tell she loved him back! She sent me a lot of pictures and I could tell my Oreo was loving her always cuddling and playing with her. We are definitely coming back to Birdie. It was the first time we ever left Oreo with anyone outside family and he did great.”

“I will always be extremely grateful with Kristal for taking excellent care of Pandita. Kristal is a really sweet and kind lady. She kept me updated all the time! She sended me pictures, videos, feed her, played with her, and took her to walks. Even gave me a little bed for Pandita because she loved it so much. I would totally choose her again and trust her blindly as my dog caregiver. Thank you so much Kristal!”


“My two dogs met Deb at a meet and greet, and when I took them for their stay they were quite happy to march right in to Deb's house. She made them welcome, which reassured me greatly!”
