“Michele is wonderful and really took marvelous care of both our dogs. We loved getting pictures of what they were doing. It was obvious she spent time with them and they were comfortable in her home.”
“Marcia was wonderful; they made my pup feel like a member of the family! I got lots of updates so I didn't have to worry while I was away for work. Cane was having so much fun that I wasn't sure he'd want to come home!”
“Lauren and Kelly are ahhh-mazing! They are so kind, accommodating and treat your pet like a part of their own family. They sent me photos throughout my time away. My dog came home so happy and I swear he was smiling when I picked him up! So trustworthy and loving to your furry family member. Can not thank them enough or say enough to express the feeling that you feel, knowing that your pet is safe and loved while you are away!!! 💗💕💗”
“Karissa was very responsive during the entire process! She was professional, friendly and greeted Lilly in a very gentle manner. She also sent me daily photos/videos. I would definitely use her again!”
“Julie was awesome with Walden! She’s had labs herself for many years so she welcomed him with open arms. He had a great time and would love to have her watch him again in the future. Thanks, Julie!”
“I’m so happy we found Karen, she takes such amazing care of our Goldie and sends us lots of updates. It definitely calms our anxiety (which is high!!) when we have to leave her! It’s also such a relief that Goldie has Juni to hang out with, such a sweet girl.”
“Andrea and Bob were wonderful and took great care of Josie while we were away. Kept in touch, sent photos every day - I could tell she was having a very good time with them. Thank you so much Andrea and Bob!!”
“Harriet and her “family” provided such a warm, safe and fun stay for our Chloe. She sent regular photos and videos so we were at ease during our vacation. Chloe is looking forward to her next stay. Would highly recommend!”
“Caitlin is great! She helped me when I was a pinch and watched my dog for me with just 3 hours notice on a holiday weekend. Extremely responsive, caring and I’ll definitely be using her again!!”
“Stephen took extra sweet care of my bulldog Stella. Fantastic and frequent communicator, I truly appreciate the updates and pictures of Stella throughout her stay. 100% would recommend Stephen and consider for future Cape boarding needs!”
“This was our second time leaving our pup with Alyne. Even though it had been about a year our dog remembered her and was thrilled to spend the weekend in her care! We will certainly book with Alyne again in the future and can’t recommend her enough!”
“Caitlin was incredibly responsive when scheduling with us. She was flexible when we had to adjust times and quick to reply. Super grateful we found her and she was able to take care of our pup for 2 nights. Would recommend and use again!”
“Madaket watched our dog Cooper for a week, and was wonderful! She sent us photos each day showing the days activities which included going for walks, playing with her dog Bermuda, and just relaxing. When Cooper came home to us, he was relaxed and happy (unlike when he had been boarded elsewhere). Not only can we highly recommend Madaket to watch your pet, but we have already booked Cooper to be with her again for a couple more stays.”
“I give Chelsea 5+++ stars. I contacted her just a few hours before I had to leave town unexpectedly and she was very accommodating. Chelsea was in touch me the entire time I was away and sent photos so that my time away wasn't filled with worry over whether my dog was taken care of. Thanks, Chelsea! #firstpick”
“Cindi sent great pics and regular updates. Clover got a lot of exercise, and adjusted well, and quickly to her first visit with Cindi. Was a great experience for all of us. We felt confident leaving her with Cindi.”
“Desiree & Josiah were great, highly recommend! They were flexible with drop-off and pick-up (we needed just an overnight sitter -- no daytime care -- because we were unable to find a place to stay with our dog Max) and gave Max lots of love and great walks. We will definitely board Max with them again!”
“I am so happy to have found Alexa to care for my senior dog while I went away. She was able to book on short notice, had great communication, and was very accommodating to my schedule. Most importantly, she provided excellent care and is very trustworthy. I look forward to booking with Alexa again!”
“Jorie was amazing taking care of my pug Cruze! She was very communicative and sent me photos of Cruze enjoying her place. It was clear upon pick up that Cruze had a great time and I would definitely book Jorie again!”
