“I can't recommend Elisabeth highly enough! She took such wonderful care of our dog, Ollie, and it was clear from the start how much love and attention she gave him. Every day, she sent multiple high-quality photos and detailed updates that showed just how happy and comfortable he was in her care. She went above and beyond by dressing the dogs in warm outfits and taking them on engaging walks, keeping Ollie active and entertained. Not only did she keep him well-exercised, but she also worked on teaching him commands! It is obvious how much she cares about providing a safe, loving, and enriching environment for the dogs. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and I’m so grateful for the peace of mind she gave us while we were away for the holidays. Thank you for watching Ollie!”

“I recommend Jake. He was friendly and attentive to my instructions for Jazzy. He sent me pictures of her regularly and she was happy and in good shape when I picked her up. I would leave Jazzy with Jake again!”

“This is my second time booking with Anne and just like the first time it was great. My dog was very well cared for and did not want to leave! Anne sent over steady updates and was very communicative with us before, and during. I will definitely be booking with her again!”


“Trish was amazing. We had a last minute trip that came together in a day. Trish was able to not only met Riley early in the afternoon but made herself available to drop him off later that day. There was never a worry during the trip as she sent us pictures of Riley and Scout becoming best friends. By the time I was picking Riley up when I returned, I figured I would ask about her schedule for a few more up coming trips we have planned.”
“Neil and Abby were great. Good communication and our dog was very happy there - lots of good play time with their dog Molly. Would definitely have Delta board with them again in the future!”

“Carmen did an amazing job with Jerry’s overnight stay. She sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the day. She also ensured that he had a potty break right before pick up! I am super grateful for her help with Jerry and helping my shy pup feel comfortable being away from home. I know Jerry is safe in her care. Thank you again!”

“Never having left Roo, Matzoh and Tony with anyone, we were a bit nervous. But we were sent pictures daily with updates and upon picking them up, it was obvious that they were well taken care of and very happy!”

“I will definitely reach out to Christina for any care for my pup. Her communication and attention to my dog was unmatched and I’m sure my dog will be excited to see her again!”

“Amazing family with great kids who love animals! We are well updated with photos for our dog. Cassidy gave great assurance on the 2D1N boarding. Already arranged for the next boarding period!”

“Kyle & Kaleigh are our go to when we need leave our dog Ryder over night. Ryder gets excited when we pull in the driveway and cannot wait to get inside to see them & their two dogs!! Ryder gets lots of cuddles and play time in with them.”

“Kseniia was amazing with our dog. It was his first time being away from us for an extended period of time and she went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable. He was def on high alter in a new place, but she was so patient with him! I also really appreciated the daily pics and videos and her patience with us as our flights got changed and cancelled multiple times.”

“Another fabulous visit with Viva! Nova always comes home so happy and tired, and we appreciate Viva’s flexibility and knowledge! She always goes above and beyond - we appreciate you!”

“Christine was a lovely host for Bode’s week of summer camp. She was quick to reply, lovely to speak with, but most importantly seemed to really care about Bode’s wellbeing and happiness. She has a huge fenced in yard that he had free reign to, and a lovely in ground pool. We will absolutely book with her again!”


“Katherine did an amazing job with Boone. He was well rested and not anxious at all when I picked him up. She was very flexible and communicative during his stay. I was very happy!”

As a dog mom, best thing is bringing our girl to drop off and having her wag her tail like she’s seeing a family member! Maizy is so excited to see Rachael every time💗. Maizy enjoys lots of walks, pets and love. We couldn’t ask for more. Thank you, Rachel!! And thank you so much for the beautiful holiday card full of Maizy pictures. Sweetest card ever!
Anne was very accommodating to last minute adjustments in my schedule when I needed to drop off and pick up my dog, Bee. She was prompt in updating me on how Bee was settling in and getting along with her dog. Anne provided a comfortable place for Bee to spend a couple of days - I’d definitely rebook with her in the future!
