Taylor was FANTASTIC. We had never left our dog with anyone besides family before so this was a big leap of faith. Our dog is super anxious and Taylor worked to make her comfortable. She was incredibly responsive and sent lots of updates. Definitely spoiled our girl.

Isabel and her husband were amazing. They were extremely flexible with the meet and greet and drop off/pick up times. You can tell that they genuinely love dogs and treated Duncan like their own while he was there. He looked so comfy and loved! I would absolutely book with them again and hope we get the chance to! Thank you both!🤗

Kelly was awesome! This was my first time boarding my dog Finn with her. We had just recently moved to the area but still needed to take care of a lot of things out of town. Kelly was able to do a meet and greet with us beforehand and it went great. She has a huge fenced in yard for all the dogs to roam around in and play, and Finn fit in well with her and her dogs. During Finn's actual stay, he got comfortable in her home and made new friends with both the resident and visiting dogs. Kelly made sure to send me pictures and videos throughout his stay too, which I very much appreciated. It was obvious to me that Finn was well taken care of and that Kelly genuinely loves all the dogs in her care. She was also very accommodating with the drop off and pick up times. I will definitely bring Finn back to stay with her the next time there is a need. Thanks again Kelly! Finn will miss you, Miska, Ruby, and all the other dogs who came to play! :)

Xiaoyu was incredibly caring and loving with my kitties. One of them is very shy and skittish and only lets me touch her — not even my husband can. To my surprise, Foxy ended up letting Xiaoyu pet her and even slept in their bed . That says everything. Xiaoyu was very responsive, kept me updated the whole time, and sent pictures regularly, which gave me so much peace of mind. She followed all instructions carefully and treated my cats like her own. I am very grateful ♥️

She followed all our directions and kept him comfortable and safe. We definitely recommend her for any of your dog sitting needs! Thank you Lori!

This was the first time I’ve ever left Zara with anyone outside of my home. But, let me tell you….Zara and I feel extremely lucky to have found and been able to use Lesley for Zara’s stay. Lesley and her family were absolutely amazing and took such good care of Zara. It was clear that Lesley loves animals and takes this “job” seriously. Lesley and her family truly welcomed and treated Zara as their own. It took Zara a while to warm up being in a new environment and all. But, once she did, you could tell she was enjoying herself. Lesley cared for Zara in the same way(s) I do; following our usual eating, sleeping, and playing routines. Lesley maintained great communication with me and provided me with updates and several pictures and a video. All of which eased my anxiety a ton! I can’t praise Lesley and her family enough! I will be booking with Lesley again in the future. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!

About: I’m a dog mom so I have plenty of experience caring for a dog. He’s my buddy and we’ve gone on more hikes and walks than I can count. I trained him when he was a little pup and I cared for him post surgery when he needed a little extra love and support (he gets a lot🥰). I’ve helped my family and friends by caring for their dogs when they go away or get stuck at work. I also volunteer at the animal shelter where most of my time is spent dog walking. Dogs hold a special place in my heart and my dog is my baby so I can promise that I will take the very best care of your pup!💛 I’m flexible with timeframes and requests as long as I have enough notice. I’m happy to help and I can’t wait to meet your pup!😊 Being a dog mom, dog-sitting, and volunteering at the animal shelter have all helped me develop the necessary skills to take the very best care of your pup!

Our pup had the best time! Communication was great - we received photos and update daily. It was fun to see how much fun our dog was having while we were gone. He came home happy and tired from all the playing. We will definitely be using Martine and Ronald again next time when we need care. I couldn't have asked for a better, more caring home for our dog while we were gone.

If I could, I would give more than 5 stars. Ariana and her pups were great. I have a high energy husky mix and she had a blast with Ariana and her goldens. Ariana had my pup for an overnight while I was moving and she sent me several pictures and videos of my dog playing and relaxing. I could not recommend her more and will definitely be using her for anymore bookings I need in the future.

This is the second time Ane has watched our dog, Charlie, and we honestly wouldn’t trust anyone else. Charlie absolutely loves her, and it’s clear that he feels safe and comfortable in her care. We always have peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. Ane also sends regular updates, photos, and videos, which we truly appreciate. It makes being away from Charlie so much easier. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy dog sitter!

This was Billie’s first time staying away from me, and Brianna did a great job keeping me updated and making sure Billie was as comfortable as possible. She sent me pictures and updates throughout her stay, which I really appreciated! Billie had a little trouble adjusting at first, but Brianna was patient with her, and by the end she seemed much more comfortable and settled in. I’m so grateful for the care and communication!

Elizabeth and Joe had Daisy during two of her least favorite days... fireworks AND thunderstorms 😖 they were both very accommodating to our fearful girl and made sure she felt safe. She got to go hiking, play fetch, and play in the water - 3 of her favorite activities! Elizabeth made sure to send updates throughout her stay and kept us in the loop. We would definitely recommend her for your dog sitting needs!

She sent regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind and let us know our pup was happy and well cared for. Her apartment was also clean, tidy, and welcoming, which was another big plus for us. We truly appreciated the care and attention she gave our little one, and we wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!

George took such great care of our dog, Lola, during a 3 week boarding stay. This was the longest we’ve ever been away from her, so we were nervous at first, but George made us feel at ease from day one. He consistently sent thoughtful updates with lots of photos and videos, along with detailed messages that helped us feel connected to Lola while we were away. He was proactive about asking questions instead of making assumptions, which showed how much he genuinely cared about doing things the right way. When an unexpected situation arose, George handled it with incredible calm, responsibility, and professionalism. He was proactive and immediately kept us informed every step of the way, followed our vet’s care instructions carefully, rearranged his evening, stayed up late to make sure Lola was comfortable, and truly went above and beyond to care for her. We couldn’t have asked for someone more attentive or dedicated during a stressful situation. It’s clear that George genuinely loves the dogs he cares for and treats them like his own. We are so grateful for the time, effort, and compassion he showed Lola, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again. We highly recommend George to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, communicative, and truly invested in their pet’s wellbeing.
