“We were spending 1 night in Memphis and needed someone to care for our energetic English Springer Spaniel. Adaire was great, very responsive in communications, and had everything set up when we arrived. While there for less than a day, Adaire took her out for multiple adventures in the park along with sending pictures and videos. Violet found a new best friend and didn't want to leave. Highly recommend.”

Mowgli was an anxious boy for his first boarding, but he did have a wonderful time cuddling and sleeping with Abby and playing with her dog Theon, who is the sweetest boy!”


“Pooja is just the best. She takes our pup in as her own and understands what it takes to help our guy adjust when he is away from home! Our dog has separation anxiety and she is very accommodating to his specific needs. She is so loving to our pooch and gives lots of walks, snuggles, and updates for mom and dad while we are away! 10/10 recommend!”
