Holly is not only very nice but a very caring caretaker for your fur children! Excellent communication and wonderful picture follow up while you are away. Highly recommend Holly and she gives you peace that they are in excellent hands. Our dogs love her yard with plenty of nature to safely explore. Wonderful caretaker. Can’t say enough great things about her!

Michele is a very warm and caring person. She took our dog on several walks and was very attentive during his stay including him as part of the family. She also provided daily updates. I will be using her soon because our dog was well cared for and she is a pleasure to work with.

my dogs must have enjoyed it because they didn’t act any different getting in the car and going home. They barely missed us. I can tell this family enjoyed taking care of my dogs and I was able to enjoy my time away knowing they were in good hands.

Jenna did a wonderful job taking care of my Standard Poodle. After our meet and greet where I met Jenna, her husband and 2 dogs I felt they were an attentive and dog loving and dog centered family. I really appreciated their fenced yard and their flexibility and understanding that my dog was not perfectly trained, she still jumps and does not go for walks calmly. It was clear that Jenna's family was going to provide the same loving attention and lots of activity (playing with their dogs) my dog receives at home. Jenna was responsive when we communicated, she would answer within a few minutes. She sent pictures and updates. I could not have asked for a better sitter for my dog and I will definitely use them again in the future. My dog was happy and well cared for by Jenna!

Matt is one of the best sitters. He ACTUALLY cares for my dog as his own and my dog is so excited to see Matt and his family. It’s enduring! My heart breaks when I have to go out of town for work, but knowing he is safe, well and being treated kindly gives me a great amount of peace. In closing, I’m a REPEAT client and if you are looking for a sitter - stop and send the request - now!

Darcy and Dan took wonderful care of my pup! They asked very thoughtful questions during the meet and greet and are clearly huge dog lovers. I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog in their care. Darcy and Dan provided updates, photos, and a video throughout the stay. I already booked my dog's next stay.

Deana was absolutely amazing! She and her husband, James, took such great care of my dog, Henny, during a last-minute boarding. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such a loving and attentive home. Deana truly treats your pet like her own, and it shows in everything she does. Henny was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for the entire time. Plus, her dog Shaggy is adorable and has such a similar personality to Henny :) It’s also a huge bonus that she lives nearby, making everything so convenient. I’m incredibly grateful for the care she provided and would not hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!

Barbara and Dirk and Zoe were amazing! They welcomed Oliver into their home with love and affection. He was so comfortable and at ease with them. He settled right in and quickly became part of their household. They send me photos and updates while we were gone and I could see he was happy and relaxed with them. We highly recommend them we will definitely leave Olie with them when we need to travel in the future. They are the best!💕

Karen was a wonderful boarder for our 3 year old, high energy “puppy”! We got daily pictures and updates. Her home is clean and dog friendly! Henry had a wonderful time! She even got him to eat during the week which usually doesn’t happen in our absence. We appreciate her care so we could visit family! THANK YOU!

Rebecca was the best sitter we have ever had. She and her family genuinely loved and cared for Baxter. She provided awesome updates on his activities and interactions. We knew Baxter was well cared for and truly enjoyed his time there. I would highly recommend booking Rebecca for your next dog boarding.

Stephanie and her family were absolutely incredible! We had a vacation for 10 days and our pups moved right on in and made themselves at home at Stephanie’s house. We got updates and photos daily and could tell our dogs were very well taken care of and having so much fun! We will absolutely use Stephanie every time we need a dog sitter and would 1000% recommend to anyone looking to leave their animals with a trusted family.
