3. Griffin & Gloria R.
“We were in town with our pup for a few days and were looking to get out for a day and were able to get a last minute booking with Griffin to dog sit and he was terrific with our Milo. He sent us frequent updates along with photos to put us at ease so we could enjoy our day in the city. Highly recommend!”
4. Linda & Michael L.
“I can’t begin to explain how lucky we feel to have found these folks! Rather than our poor pup sitting alone in his vet’s kennel, they brought him into their home, snuggled with him, kept him happy, and sent us updates and photos! I was so apprehensive about leaving our dog (a one-year-old lab who acts…well, like a one-year-old lab) with someone I hadn’t met before, but they immediately put me at ease. My boy is safe, happy, and home with us. I 100% recommend Linda and Mike!”

“Our shih tzu had a great stay with Elaine. This was his third stay with her, and he feels right at home in her house and fenced backyard. Our pup can be 'strong willed' so we definitely appreciate Elaine's patience and care for him.”

“This latest stay Valen had a blast! He got all the cuddles and naps he could have hoped for! We appreciate how attentive and flexible Beth and Dylan were with our needs for this extended stay and are so grateful for the care they provide Valen when we aren’t here. Thank you so much!”
