Alan took such great care of my dog Luna! We were on a family trip in Spain and left Luna with a different sitter, but halfway through our trip, they could no longer take care of Luna. I needed a new dog sitter immediately and I was stressed because we were so far from home. Thankfully Alan responded quickly and had availability and he took in Luna the same day. Luna gets separation anxiety and I wasn't sure how she would react to being in a different home. Alan gave Luna the space she needed to explore his home and get comfortable, and he even put Luna's bed in his bedroom so she could feel safe. Luna loves being outside so it is a big plus that they have an outdoor space, and they go on walks often. The biggest relief was that Alan and his family have been taking care of dogs for over a decade and there is always someone home, which means Luna was never by herself and that really helped with her separation anxiety. I was really scared and I felt a little helpless since I was overseas while Luna needed a new dog sitter, so I'm really glad Alan and his family took Luna on such a last minute notice and they treated her so well. They are very attentive and gave multiple updates per day on how she was doing, and if anything seemed out of the ordinary, they would let me know immediately. They gave her lots of water, food, treats, and play time every day, and Luna got along well with the other dogs. Sometimes Luna gets nervous around other dogs and felt overstimulated when I took her to doggy day car centers in the past, but she had no problem with any of the dogs staying with Alan. I thank Alan and his family so much for being my life-saver while I was overseas and I would definitely book with them again!!

Alan and Emily are great! Carina was well cared for and we got regular photos each day. She’s stayed with them before and when we dropped her off, she went right in happily - thrilled to be back in a caring environment.

Alan & Emily and their family treated my Bentley like family. I was on a cruise and I loved all of the pictures and videos that they sent. When Bentley got home, he was happy and playful, which confirmed to me that he was really well cared for. Alan kept me up-to-date with any issues that arose and I felt so good that Bentley was in good hands. I look forward to working with them again.

Always happy with the care given to my Bichon gets when he stays here! We’ve left him with Allan and family a bunch of times, for boarding and for daycare, and we’re just glad to know that he’s in good hands while he’s there. Thanks so much!

We are so happy with the care our Bichon received while he stayed with Alan and Emily for a week while we were away on vacation. They provided us with daily video and photos, and the made sure to learn as much as they could about our dog before his stay with them. I definitely recommend them and will use them again when the time comes!

This is Champs firsts time with Alan. Champ is usually a hard to manage dog but with Alan he was such a good boy. When we got home Champ was super happy. I highly recommend Alan.

Alan was a life saver! Our sitter canceled 30 mins before we had to leave for a flight and Alan was so professional and responsive we felt more than comfortable leaving our young dog with him. He was on top of communication and Kai was sad to leave! Alan was awesome. Couldn’t have asked for better! If you want me to peace of mind and acceptional service ask Alan.

We’ve never had to leave our baby for more than a few days before, so I was so nervous when looking for where to board Charlie for almost a whole week. From the first messages between Alan and us to when we picked Charlie up, I felt so comfortable with having Charlie stay with Alan and his family. I got multiple pictures a day (which was super important to me) and tons of updates. Charlie got to play nonstop with tons of friends and came home clean and exhausted. We’ve definitely found who we’ll be leaving Charlie with any time we need to!

What can I say Alan and his family are just absolutely amazing with rio. I felt safe leaving him there while I’m away a few days. It was great to hear my dog was finally using the bathroom outside!

Alan is the only sitter I will have for my beautiful girl. Mercy has been going to his home for years. She always has plenty of doggy friends and plenty of room to catch a ball and run and play. Pictures are sent to me everyday. They are the best, hands down!! If you are looking, stop searching!!! Alan is the best!

We've used Alan for both daycare and boarding, and we'll most definitely use him again. Our pup came home happy and well loved. Alan sent updates daily with pictures and videos. He always responds quickly and is a great communicator. While boarding there was a big storm, and he reached out in advance letting us know how they would manage the weather and keep our pup safe.

Alan and Emily are great. They provide the kind of service I was looking forward to. They sent us daily updates and pictures of our pup, which made us feel comfortable and allowed us to enjoy our vacation knowing that Bella was well taken care of. We would definitely book with Alan and Emily again. Thanks very much!
