3. John K.

“John had our Rosie for 5 days over an holiday weekend and she had a great time!! She was well cared for, got her exercise in and made a furry bestie too!! John followed through on all of our feeding and sleeping instructions. I loved that he was in constant contact with me keeping me abreast of how she was eating and sleeping. I received adorable pictures of her draped in a Fourth of July scarf with her new bestie!! We highly recommend John for your pooch!! We promise, you will NOT be disappointed!!!!”


4. Amber O.

“Everything went as planned, pre-trip meet up, pictures with updates each day, my puppy came home happy as can be and now has a few more doggy friends.”


5. Veronique G.

“Veronique and her husband were excellent. They honored our same day request for a meet and greet so that we could feel comfortable booking quickly. During my trip they proactively sent pictures and videos daily and gave daily updates on my dog’s comfort level and activities. They were wonderful to partner with and I’d happily leave my dog in their care again because they made me rest easy on my time away. 10/10 would recommend.”


6. Donna H.

“Donna took care of our American Eskimo puppy over the holidays and we were very pleased with the care he received while there. Donna has a lot of experience with breeding and boarding dogs so our puppy was very happy while there. We knew he was safe and secure while we were away. We definitely will be using her services again!”




7. Kerri H.
“When I know that I am going to have a particularly long day at work I always call Kerri to see if she is available to take my 13 year old mini-schnauzer Henry out for a walk and give him some love :) Kerri is a natural dog lover and Henry just adores her. She always sends me a picture of him enjoying his outings and I know that he is in such great hands! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone!! ”




8. Gabby G.


“This was my first time ever letting someone dog sit my dog and I had the best experience with Gabi. Keira loved her and her stay with Gabi. She took very great care of my dog and I definitely leave Keira with her again.”


9. Jennifer P.

“Jen was great with our dog. She sent tons of pictures and updates. My dog came back healthy and happy. We will for sure use her again for sitting. Thank you Jen for taking such good care of Winston.”


10. Charlotte K.

“Not enough good things to say! Charlotte was amazing. Super responsive, always sending pictures, and giving updates! My dog didn’t want to leave. Would for sure recommend her and use her in the future!”


11. Khadijah M.
“She has had a love for animals since she was a young child. When I first got a dog you would have thought it was her sister rather than my pet. She cared for her as if she was a baby, would always make sure she was groomed properly, feed her, take her out for walks. She even brought her cute little dog outfits. During Covid when the groomers were closed she would come over and bathe her and when it was time lightly trim her hair so it wouldn’t be to long and wild. When my dog passed away Khadijah helped me arrange a funeral and burial for her like she was truly a member of the family. She currently has a cat that I truly believe is her son because that is how she cares for him.”


12. Theresa O.

“Theresa and her family were so good with Baxter that I now think he prefers them to us! She shared plenty of updates and photos and provided a safe and engaging home for Baxter while we were away. We would definitely repeat.”


13. Alejandro F.

“Alejandro & his fiancée were wonderful with my Cody. They gave him plenty of attention & love. I could tell he was very happy staying with them & enjoyed playing with their dog. Sent plenty of pictures & videos. Will definitely be using them again!”




14. Catherine P.


“My boys had a wonderful time with Catherine. She was very good dealing with my one dog when there was a Thunderstorm. My boys were happy to see me but I think they would have stayed with Catherine if they could have. I would absolutely recommend her to others.”


15. Keith B.

“Keith and his wife are the best! He kept me updated on Ziggy & was always very very responsive. Ziggy had such a good time with the other dogs!! Will definitely be using again!”




16. Dannica E.

“Dannica took perfect care of my Louie. Updates everyday, several times a day eased my mind while I was away. I came home to a happy, healthy boy. I can’t wait to use her again. She is the best!”




17. Daniel S.


“Dogs had a great time - came home happy, but not desperate. They were very accommodating with senior dog needs. Updates with texts and pics of the pups is always nice. Will definitely use again.”


18. Marcia G.
“Marcia is wonderful! Any time Beauford gets to go see Marcia to stay all I have to do is say “Beaufie” do you want to go to Marcia’s house- and he jumps up and runs to the door!! I feel so safe when he is at her home.”


19. Julia G.

“Julia and her family took great care of Daisy! We got lots of updates and cute pictures. I’m grateful she took such great care of our old lady :)”
