“Cooper did not do well in a kennel. We were told Not to come back at two different kennels as Cooper barked all night. Aron stays in the room with the dogs and so Cooper, who needs a human, did great. He also got to play with many other dogs which he loved! We are already booked twice more with Aron.”
“Paloma had a great time at Marsha’s house with her new friend Coco! Marsha was very thoughtful. She sent us some great pictures along the way of Paloma and Coco relaxing on the couch, and of Paloma resting on the outside porch swing.”
“Robin and her husband Eric were great. They took our dog Izzy on a hike and treated her as their own. Robin had incredibly strong communication from beginning to end always responding within minutes. They even let her snuggle in bed with them. We will definitely use them in the future.”
“Grant is the only one who I trust now to look after my dog. He understands dogs better than anyone else I have ever met. Grant "reads" them, he bonds with them, he sees stuff that I do not (and I have had dogs for decades). His property is ideal for dogs; it is not so much dog "boarding" as it is *dog summer camp*!!! Grant is trustworthy and careful. He is in contact regularly, sending wonderful photos and videos of the dogs playing, sleeping and just being dogs. After I saw what my dog was up to, I booked again. Grant is the best!”
“We have had a wonderful experience using Emily and Court for our doggy needs! Our dear gal Ruah has stayed overnight with them over two major holidays and we have also started bringing her to their epic doggy day camp. Ruah is a high-energy and sensitive dog and she thrives going to Emily and Court’s house where she gets loads of exercise, interaction, and love. She gets very excited when we pull up and is content when we leave. Emily and Court have a lovely home and property and treat the dogs like family. They take the dogs on hikes, have interactive activities, use high-quality treats, send nice updates, work on things like recall, and give a good debrief. They know dogs and I know Ruah is in great hands over there, I am so happy I found them!”
“Rawley loves to go to Linda’s!!! He has plenty of furry friends to play with, and the pond to swim in! Linda is so kind to the dogs at her house. She sends lots of pictures daily.”
“This is Gracie's 3rd stay. She was so excited arriving at the house, she doesn't care that I'm leaving without her. It's great to leave her where the home, humans and dogs are familiar. Traveling is so much easier when I don't need to worry about Gracie. I know that her eye drops are being administered and she's in a happy and loving environment.”
“Nicole and Jerrod were great! Our 75 lb Golden loved playing with their Lab, Charlie. Nicole sent regular updates with pics. But more importantly we felt they genuinely cared for our fur baby, Rafa.”
“First overnight for our puppy with Ruby and her family! As with the last time Cusco spent time at Ruby’s home, he got so much love, attention, and playtime. I received many photos and videos while we were away, always making us feel comfortable and giving updates! I know Cusco is already looking forward to going back :) thank you, Ruby!”
“Kandra did really good with my dog. She had her for a month or so. My dog was very happy and grew up with lots of love. Thanks again for all your help!”
“Kara was extremely nice and understanding! Our dog loved her family. We would definitely bring our dog to her again!!”
“Kelsey and Alexis made my pups feel like family. They came home happy and tired. They went above and beyond my expectations and our family is so glad that we found them! It is obvious that they love dogs and enjoy caring for them.”
“Bella went above and beyond for our dog Daisy. She provided constant updates and photos. I felt very comfortable leaving our pup with her. Her dog Frankie was great company and became instant friends with Daisy. Next time I need a dog sitter she will be my first choice!”
“If you want the best dog care ever give Justin and Nicole a try. They are absolutely the most wonderful people you’ll ever meet. Rizzie had a great time and I felt totally relaxed leaving my precious baby with them. If I could give 10 stars I would. Communication is excellent. Overall the best experience ever for dog sitters.”
“Leslie and her husband treated our Sherman as one of their own! He had a great time playing with their pup and enjoyed getting all the special attention! With the numerous pics taken I can tell he was on his very own vacation! Definitely recommend Leslie!”
“My dog Sunny and I both think Rachel and her dogs and cats are the best. Sunny was instantly right at home and I was comforted to know that he was being taken care of by Rachel who was so friendly, responsible, and caring. She was responsive to messages and easy to communicate with and she went the extra mile for my sweet little dog. I highly recommend her service!”
“Jane was awesome! She took care of our fur baby as if she was her own! Sent us updates and pictures. She even gave Bailey (our dog) her own baby! Very sweet of her! Will definitely be calling Jane next time we need a dog sitter! Thanks Jane!”
“I felt really comfortable leaving Mack with Elle. And coming from me, that says a lot! I rarely leave his side. He thrives in calm energy environment, and this is exactly that. I will definitely be requesting another sitting in the future.”
“Whiskey had a wonderful time staying with Pamilla. He was definitely well taken care of and got all the individual attention he wanted. Pamilla sent us lots of pictures and updates on the daily basis. She has a beautiful backyard that looks like a mini park where Whiskey was able to run around and chase squirrels. He took naps on the patio whenever he felt like it. The magnetic patio door was perfect for pets going in and out any time they want. Whiskey was a happy boy, full of energy and very alert when we picked him up. We could tell he had a good time staying with Pamilla. We know Whiskey will always be in good hands. Thank you Pamilla!!!”
“We were gone for 2 weeks. George and Malia took great care of our girl while we were gone. They sporadically sent sweet photos and videos of our pup so we didn’t miss her too much. Highly recommend.”
