9. Patti & William B.


“Patti was wonderful with our 2 dogs! Her communication with us during our trip was so appreciated. She sent daily updates, photos and videos, which went a long way to ensure us that our pets were cared for with as much attention to detail as we would give ourselves. This made our trip so much more enjoyable and stress-free. I would most definitely recommend her for pet boarding. She’s absolutely wonderful!”


10. Sharon F.

12. Virginia W.


“Virginia and Jerry are amazing hosts to your pups vacation. We have never left our baby with a stranger and from the moment we met them they, we immediately felt comfortable having them take care of her. We found out last minute that we needed help for a night and they were able to accommodate our last minute request for a meet-and-greet and then drop off the next morning. We have used them since the first time and will continue to take our pup to Virginia's place. I would also recommend them to all of my family and friends who are looking for dog care.”




13. Wendy R.

“Wendy is amazing! We have been looking for someone in the area and will definitely use her again! She was responsive, kind, and such a home away from home and second parent for our boy. We came back to a very happy pup which makes me a very happy dog mom! Use her!”

15. Viji R.

“Viji was incredibly communicative and provided frequent updates with pictures, which I really appreciated. When we picked up our dog, he seemed a bit sad, which tells me he truly enjoyed his stay and the companionship of the sitter's little kid. It’s comforting to know he had such a good time! Highly recommend Viji!”


16. Varsha M.

17. Cynthia G.

“10 stars out of 5. Wait, 11!! Cindy provides absolutely exceptional care. Our special pup spent over two weeks with her--she even accomdated when we were delayed a day getting home. She kept in contact as often as I asked and provided routine updates. She also kept his feeding and medication routine perfectly to a T. Most importantly, she cares just as much-if not more!-about the precious pups she looks after as you do. Her enormous fenced yard is a plethora of new adventure while remaining completely safe. I simply cannot thank her enough!”

“Tyler and Christopher were so great with Oslo!! Sent us a lot of great pictures and we knew he was loved and cared for. We’ll definitely use again!”

“This was the first time that I have left my 13 year old dog with someone outside of my immediate family. I was very nervous but Cassey did a great job taking care of my baby. Cassey kept Tuna on her regular schedule, played with her, and loved her like her own. I will def. be rebooking with Cassey in the future. Thank you for taking care of my baby!”
