“Terry and Kristal took great care of my 2 dogs (1- 14 yrs, 1- 2 yrs) while I traveled for +3 weeks for business. I received regular photos and videos and the dogs were happy and in good health when I picked them up. I recommend them for anyone looking for a home boarding/kennel experience!”


“Andrew and his family were amazing watching our Saint Bernard pup. Buddy is very energetic and kind of high maintenance so I was worried about leaving him (we never have before). Buddy had a great time and was well taken care for. I highly recommend Andrew to take good care of your dog!”


“Ann and Thomas were fantastic. They sent lots of pictures and videos so I know my pup was well taken care of. She played a ton and came home all tuckered out. Highly recommend.”


“Hannah was awesome! She was proactive in letting me know how my boy was doing, and was very responsive when I had questions. I appreciated that she wanted to get to know my dog ahead of time to make sure they would both be comfortable. Unfortunately my dog was sick when he stayed with Hannah, but she frequently let me know how he was doing (even sent videos of him coughing and sneezing so I could gauge condition from afar) and administered his medicine. I will definitely be rebooking!”

Pamela's home was very clean and welcoming. Her communication was great and her detailed daily updates and pictures really put us at ease and made us feel confident that he was adjusting well. Henry looked so relaxed and easy going in the pictures. I am so happy to have found Pamela and if we need a sitter in the future I would definitely book with her again!”
