“Azure was just amazing with our puppy. We had planned an out of town trip and needed a place for our puppy with short notice. Azure had great reviews and after a successful meet and greet, we dropped off my pup (Asta). Azure sent videos and photos daily. Asta looked so happy which made our family feel happy about picking the right person. Asta was well cared for and found a life long friend with Azure and her family. Thank you so much! We will be back :)”

Thank you, Agnatha!!”

“I'm so glad we found Karisa and her family. We were looking for someone to take care of our dog, Trooper, while we were out of town. We boarded him with Karisa and everything was great. We received messages all week long with pictures, and we could tell Trooper had a great time. We will definitely plan on boarding Trooper with Karisa in the future.”

“This was our first time using Rover and I'm so glad we chose Jennifer to watch our Golden Retriever. Our dog stayed 8 nights, and we were sent photos and daily updates. Not once did I feel worried about her well-being. I can tell our dog enjoyed her stay, and I'm not convinced she's glad to be back home! We will most definitely use Jennifer again in the future, and will recommend her to others.”

“So incredibly blessed to have found Kristen to care for my fur baby while away. She kept me updated with beautiful pictures, which kept my mind at easy being the first time being away from him.

Our flights were unexpectedly canceled last night, and we weren’t able to fly out until Thursday. Alexandra stepped in without hesitation and took such great care of our pets during a very stressful situation. She was incredibly kind, flexible, and reassuring, and we were so relieved knowing our pets were in good hands. We were extremely happy with the way she helped us out and took care of everything. Truly grateful for her support and would absolutely recommend her to anyone.

Mikendra was nothing short of amazing! she was definitely a life saver. she came to our rescue when we were in a last minute desperate hunt for a sitter and she definitely delivered . Our fur baby was in good hands and well taken care of. And I like the fact that she keeps you updated with pics throughout the stay of your pet. I would definitely recommend her.

Brian immediately connected with Narius and had a very calm and steady presence that helped put my dog at ease. He updated me regularly with photos and comments about how Narius was doing, and took him to the dog park,let him run around, get some energy out and have fun. Brian is intelligent and communicative and I will definitely rebook him.

Malik and Kolby were so great to my Dexter. They were very communicative with me and sent me pictures everyday. Drop off and pick up was easy and stress free. This was my first time leaving my Dex with anyone other than family but they both made me feel at ease as I was able to meet them and have them meet Dexter a few days before we left on our trip. I would 100% recommend Malik and Kolby to everyone I know that needs to board their dog.
