“Milo had the best time with Kiara and her dog Chase. Kiara was so loving with Milo and sent pics to keep me updated on Milo’s day. Definitely recommend and can’t wait to have Milo stay again.”
“We were in town while traveling and needed someone to watch our dog while we visited New York City. Ruby loved visiting with Marisol and her family! She took excellent care of her! We knew Ruby had fun because she was so excited to go back the second day! If we are ever in the area again, I would definitely call Marisol!”
“This was the first time we used Rover so we were nervous to leave Smoke with a stranger. We were blown away by how well the day care went and will definitely be returning to June in the future. She set up a meet and greet which calmed our nerves and sent a nice compilation of photos and videos throughout the day. Smoke was playing and running and having a blast in every single one. She has a nice fenced in back yard for them to burn some energy and he slept the entire night when we got home. I would 10/10 recommend June to watch your fur babies! Not to mention, she is also extremely responsive and accommodating. Thank you so much!”
“Sebastian did a wonderful job with Cadence on her first visit. She can be a bit of a Velcro dog with my husband and I, and during her stay there she didn’t cry when I left. She settled in, got along great with his doodle Leo and even ate her lunch and treats. Sebastian is very professional and attentive, and kept us up to date with many pictures and videos. I will definitely book again and would highly recommend to anyone who’s looking for someone that will take great care and attention with their doggo. Thank you!”
