14. Lori H.
“Lori was amazing and took excellent care of our dog for an overnight stay. We discovered that our dogs had met, walking at Capital Hills and had hit it off right away, so that was an added bonus. But I immediately felt very comfortable and when I dropped Clover off, I truly felt like I was leaving her with a friend. Clover came home clean, happy and exhausted. I can't recommend Lori enough and would absolutely reach out to her again when the need arises. Thank you, Lori!”
15. Juliana & Jesse M.
About: I have always had a love of dogs since I was young. Once out of college, the opportunity for me to adopt my now dog came, and I took it immediately. He was 3 and not really house trained, and didn’t know any tricks. He took to me immediately and I trained him to be what he is today. Since adopting him, family and friends have entrusted me with watching their pups. I have experienced watching dogs of all ages and all dogs are welcomed and loved in this house! My husband has also grown up with multiple dogs at a time in his home and is very experienced in dog sitting. I am currently at home full time, so I have plenty of time to play and care for your pups! I am available to board any day of the week and most weekends, and am very flexible. I have a fully fenced in yard and a small pup who gets along with any dog. Our dog does not get crated, but we can easily crate your dog if needed. We also allow the pups on the furniture and in bed with us at night.
16. Rachel M.
“Thank you Rachel for being so great with Lego! I loved all the pics and videos you sent me! And I could tell you gave him all the love with pets and cuddles!! Thank you for being flexible when I had to extend my stay, TWICE! Thank you so much!”
17. Annette K.
“Annette was amazing with Hercules! He was immediately right at home with her and she was so conscientious about following our instructions. She sent me great input on how he waa doing every day including pictures. She gave him his morning medicine and he looked back for her when we left! Thanks Annette!!”
18. Samantha M.
“We'd never boarded our dog before; the first time was with Samantha. Things went very smoothly. She has a lovely, calm demeanor that put our dog at ease right away. Sam sent just the right number of updates to show that our dog was doing fine. She followed our instructions, and all was well. Thank you Sam!”
19. Jessica G.
“Jessica was great with our dog Momo did not want to leave Jessica house. She sent us pictures and was very informative on what was going on and had lots of knowledge on dogs. we will use her again for sure.”
20. Sarah G.
“Sarah and her family gave such good care to Miles! He got plenty of love and cuddles from her and her family, & I felt really safe leaving him with her. Miles is an emotional support dog to me, as I suffer from PTSD, so it was hard to leave him for 19 days with anyone. After meeting Sarah & her family I knew he would feel loved and safe with them. They went above and beyond in every way! Sending pictures, of Miles and her beautiful children, & giving him an antibiotic he unexpected needed everyday. I had a difficult trip to the UK, to scatter my parents ashes in a place they went on their honeymoon. Sarah made leaving Miles as easy as it could be for me. I highly recommend Sarah!I absolutely can not fault her in anyway! Any pet owner would be privileged to leave their pet in Sarah’s excellent care!”
