2. Kristi & Jason L.

“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter. Kristi and her family took amazing care of our pup while we were out of town. They were very accommodating and communicative. We received updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our dog came home happy, well exercised, and clearly well loved. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter! We will definitely be using them again.”


3. Margaret W.


“Margaret and family have been taking good care of my senior dog while I travel for work. Very appreciative of their willingness to care for my senior girl with her reduced mobility, potential accidents and medication needs. They keep her healthy and happy while I’m away. Thanks!”


4. Holly H.

“Just picked up our Sammy spaniel and Luna doodle after they spent 5 nights at Holly's, and indeed we could see the dogs loved her and the family who are all very kind and loving. Holly is VERY dog-intuitive, a caregiving person, who also has a lovely home in a country setting. Highly recommend!!”




5. JoAnn S.


“Oliver stayed with JoAnn for 3 days. He had a great time! He loved playing with the Lab, Holly. He cuddled with both JoAnn and her husband and seemed at home and quite comfortable with them. When I went to pick him up, he seemed to want to stay and play. I would definitely leave him there in the future. JoAnn sent regular updates and photos. I could see how comfortable Oliver was and I could relax about him being away from us.”


6. Katie T.


“Katie kept us up to date on how Pumpkin was doing. Dog was relaxed and happy upon her return home and in all the pictures sent. Communication was great. We have another booking later this summer.”


7. Marcin S.

“Marcin took amazing care of our dog, Arlo, for 9 days. He communicated with us every day, sending pictures of each walk they went on, and even added healthy treats to Arlo’s meals. We loved seeing pictures of Arlo cuddling with him on the bed, and it was clear that Arlo trusted and felt comfortable with Marcin. We are so grateful for the love and attention he gave Arlo, and we will definitely be using him again soon. Highly recommend!”

12. Amie E.

“I cannot express thank you enough for how wonderfully Amie took care of my dog, Luna. She constantly sent pictures and videos, and provided updates, so I know Luna was in good hands and having a blast at her house while I was away. Luna was also happily running around in Amie’s fenced backyard with her cute two dogs. We are very fortunate to have met her and sincerely appreciate all the love she and her family gave to Luna 🧡 Thank you!”


13. Laura & Manuel P.

“Laura & Manuel were great! We were out of the country for 10 days and they were sure to send pictures every few days to let us know our Moose was settled in and going great at his "vacation family" home. They had us do a meet and greet prior to his stay and ensured he would be a good fit in their home. If we ever need somewhere to send Moose for a night away or another vacation, they will be our number one pick!”


14. Linda & Steven W.

“Could not of been happier with the care my furbaby received. Linda and Steven are fantastic, they took daily pictures and updated me on how my little girl was doing. I felt like she went to a spa resort, they even brushed her daily :) . My husband and I were so pleased and happy that we found a wonderful couple to care our dog Bella. Would recommend to anyone! Thank you Linda and Steven!!!!”

“Another wonderful stay for Henry! So good we were worried he wouldn’t want to come home! 😂. Karen is living, spoils him, and sends us at least a picture a day! We are so lucky to have found her! Thank you Karen!”


17. Katie & Kristen S.

“Katie and Kristen were great! They sent photos of my dog Indi regularly and were quick to respond to any messages. Indi seemed really comfortable when I picked him up, and it looked like their dog Jasper and Indi got along well! I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again.”


18. Deana H.


“Our Toby has boarded with Deana multiple times. We couldn’t be happier with how she lovingly cares for our senior pup and can’t recommend her enough for your furries! She clearly loves dogs, and her little dog Shaggy is very friendly and open to sharing his mom, dad, and home with visiting dogs. Our dog has become somewhat anxious in his advancing years and is on multiple oral meds. When I pick him up at the end of his stay with Deana, he seems relaxed and happy… not at all anxious, which is a very welcome surprise! I would highly recommend Deana as a trustworthy and loving carer for your dog when you have to be away.”


19. Tanu J.

“Tanu was fantastic with our dog Daisy! She sent updates every day and kept Daisy comfortable and happy throughout her stay. Tanu took Daisy on walks every day and let us know how she was doing with food and water and the weather. We were so impressed and happy that Tanu was able to put our minds at ease and care for our pup in the same way we would. Great experience, we would love to work with Tanu again!”


20. Andrew H.

“Andrew is a fantastic person. He is very well versed with the dogs. We left our PWD for a day with him and could not have been more happy. Andrew put us at ease by letting us visit his place beforehand and also sending us information throughout our dogs stay along with photos. I would highly recommend Andrew any day.”
