“My shih tzu Bubba had a great day with Mariah while I visited Cape May. He made friends with another day boarder dog and with Mariah’s shih tzu Nala. The three of them walked together on the beach on leash and played together in the house. Mariah kept me fully informed with photos and was always prompt in responding to my inquiries from the moment I searched for a sitter and located her. Would gladly place Bubba under her care the next time I visit Cape May.”

“Alex took great care of my puppy! He was there all day while I was at work, I got to enjoy pictures and videos she took of him throughout the day. He went on multiple walks which he loves! She was very accommodating to my schedule and quick to reply to any messages! I couldn’t recommend her more! My puppy can’t wait to go spend another day with Alex”

“Dee's second daycare was just as good as the first! Came home happy and tired, more dog friendly and obedient than ever. I highly recommend an occasional day for every high energy dog!”

“Our first meeting was the meet and great and I felt comfortable leaving Franco at Kelly's house for day care. Kelly was caring and friendly to our lab. The property has a large fenced in yard for Franco to run around. He had a room with a door, window and mattress which he napped on. Kelly followed instructions and I felt at ease the time I was away from him. Recommend her highly for dog care, and is located near the shore area for vacationing parents. A+ and four ruffs from Franco.”

“Kenneth was great with Beau! I had to book last minute due to a sudden change in my schedule for 4 days of doggy day care. Kenneth was more than accommodating and is exceptional with communication. Beau was always exercised (evident by his immediate nap when we got home) and excited to see Kenneth in the AM. Highly recommend, this is a no brainer if I ever need doggy day care again.”

“Top tier service! This was my first time using this service and I am so elated I ran into Sterlin. She provided constant communication about the activities she was doing with Bear which made me extremely comfortable and relieved. I also think Bear fell in love as well.

“Sol was so amazing with my dog. I cannot thank her enough for going above and beyond taking care of my dog, Teddy. She kept me updated throughout his entire stay and sent me adorable pictures and videos of him. I really appreciate her keeping me informed. My dog, Teddy, is usually nervous at first, but Sol took the time to make sure Teddy was comfortable with her before I left him with her. She responds very quickly to all messages and requests. I am beyond grateful that I found her on this site. I am overly cautious about who is around my dog, and if they are able to take care of him, Sol proved without a doubt that she is to be trusted with my fur baby. I will be exclusively using her to watch Teddy going forward if she is available. Thank you so much, Sol, and Teddy looks forward to seeing you again!”

“Victoria is a terrific host, very good communicator, got several photos and videos throughout my dogs stay. I was very comfortable leaving my pup with her. Thank you again for your hospitality and hosting Bree.”
