Stella had so much fun at this stay! Diana and Mike were lovely. Diana helped our doggie with her ears and Mike took her to the park and played fetch daily, and the sent some cute pictures too. Stella was so relaxed when she came home; it was obvious she was well cared for and had a great time.

I highly recommend Ivan's services - while just a short 1 day stay, he took great care of our pup. He came back to us 24 hours later well-fed and having taken multiple long walks. Ivan kept us updated throughout the stay w/ quick snippets and several pictures. We will definitely request Ivan's help again!

Devin and Mai were absolutely amazing with Jax. This is the second time he was going to stay with them and as soon as we got to their door he got so excited. It is the best feeling dropping him off and not having him cry or get upset because he knows he is going to get to hangout with Devin and Mai. I highly highly recommend them and we will continue to use them in the future.

Andy was an excellent boarder for Tomo - we got lots of pics, videos, and updates, and knew Tomo was having a fun time and was safe and well-taken care of. Andy asked many questions to make sure all of Tomo's being needs were met, and she came home happy and very tuckered out! Milo is also a great canine companion and sets a good example for other dogs. We would definitely recommend Andy!

Mario was fantastic! He was flexible with drop off and pick up times and kept me posted with pics and texts throughout my week long trip. This was my first time leaving Tilly for a trip and I couldn't have been luckier in finding such a great trainer and dog lover for her to stay with.

Cheng and Andree are the best dog sitters I’ve come across. They really treated my golden retriever, Benny, like he was one of their own and went above and beyond in giving him healthy treats, brushing him, and playing with him. Benny also loved the company of their goldendoodle, Kuli, who helps keep him active and social. They also provided many pictures and updates which was very much appreciated. I will certainly be continuing with their extremely high quality services!

We loved meeting Kathleen and her family before our dog Penny actually stayed at their home. For us, their location was convenient and what was even better is the family had a kind and warm spirit. Penny came back well rested and in good spirits. Kathleen and her family made sure that Penny was well taken care of. Penny is an equal part of our family, so finding good care for her is very important to us. We’re very pleased with Kathleen and appreciated all the photo updates on Penny’s stay.

Connie was absolutely amazing with my cat Sona. Sona's never boarded before, but Connie and her cat Juju made Sona feel so welcome! I was away overseas, and had to unexpectedly extend my booking - Connie was super understanding and flexible, and sent me the cutest daily pictures of Sona. We both had an amazing experience and would definitely rebook a stay with Connie!

Lauren's a sweet mom of two boys, a wheaten terrier, and a kitty so I can trust that she's going to be responsible in taking care of my Lucy (a goldendoodle). It's always play time over there!
