“Vassu and her family took great care of our dog Cera! She sent me pictures and videos each day along with texts letting me know how she was doing. I felt very reassured that Cera was with a family who would take great care of her!”


“Lindsey was great! She was so sweet and responsive. She provided me with updates and super cute pictures of my baby! The house has a nice, spacious, fenced backyard which is great since my dog is fairly big. Definitely recommend.”


“I am so grateful we found Kristin :) Second visit for our golden, Sunny. While we were away Kristin sent pictures so we could see Sunny was so happy -- hiking, playing, and just snuggling...that just put us so much at ease. Sunny also comes home cleaner than when we left her which is no easy task! :) I think we have to leave Sunny with Kristin and Kaia more often because she clearly misses them when she comes home! Thank you for everything, Kristin (and Kaia!)”


“Saktah did a great job taking care of my elderly and rather unfriendly kitty, Koshka, for two weeks while I was vacationing. She was very professional, organized, and caring, kept me updated on how my kitty was adjusting, and showed genuine affection and concern for her. She's driven to get things right and wants your pet to be as comfortable as they can be while you're gone. So if you (like me) have a pet that needs extra love and care, and you'd like to relax during your vacation knowing they're in good hands, go with Saktah. She's got you covered.”



“Karen was great! She sent a lot of pictures where you could see Teddy was having a good time playing with other little dogs and napping on sofas. Given how cold it gets in the winter, it was also great that he could use the fenced yard area right outside the door to quickly do his business. Very convenient. All in all great experience for Teddy and piece of mind for me!”


“Hannah was great! Walter had the best time playing with Wolf and even got to go on a trip to play with other dogs! The big fences in back yard was amazing and I loved getting pics of him throughout.”


“Jake had fun! He came home to us exhausted which is good. Alyssa would send us photo updates and we had no issues with her, would recommend! 😁”


“Our dog has never stayed with anyone besides family when we had Adam watch him for an overnight. Apollo was happy and excited to see him, and wasn’t anxious like we expected him to be. We got updates and pictures which were appreciated. Apollo takes a number of medications and Adam handled that easily. We were thankful for Adam watching Apollo and taking care of his needs while we were away.”


“Lady ( Kim ) was wonderful with our son Tommy’s gave updates every day. And she worked on commands with our pup. Thanks Again Kim . Much appreciated. Al & Michelle”


“A safe, loving place to leave our pup! They take such good care of our dog, and Sophie seems right at home with them and their own two pups. We love having this wonderful option so close to home.”

“Brittany took great care of our 11 year old husky. She was responsive and sent pictures. We could tell Niko was well cared for and happy. We will be booking her services again in the future.”


“We left Rocky with Anna and Jack while we went away to France for the holidays for 19 days. From the get go we had a really good feeling as Rocky was very comfortable with them and the house. We could tell that they are both dog lovers the way they naturally acted with him. By looking at the videos and pictures from his stay with them we can tell how happy and loved he was. They took such good care of him! We are really glad that he was able to have a « home » away from home. Rocky is looking forward to his next stay with them!”


“Taylor was absolutely amazing!!! From wanting to meet up before my boarding booking to make sure our dogs got along (they did :) ) to sending pictures and checking in while I was away - he is a great sitter and boarding option! He was also really accommodating when my plans changed literally last minute and even updated the booking to save the extra day charge, which he certainly didn't have to do since the change was on my side. I could just tell he was a pet person, and my dogs came home very happy and loved while I was away. Thank you Taylor - and for anyone else, he is VERY highly recommended :)”


“We are new to using Patti, but couldn't be happier with her care of our Josie. Patti was very good about letting me know how Josie was getting on and sending photos of the two of them together. I have already scheduled our next visit with Patti!”


“I would book with Olivia again , she updates me with pictures of cash to show me that she was in good hands. She communicates with me fast and responsive and the booking was on short notice, so I really appreciate her and most importantly cash love it there and she had alot of fun”


“Gloria was very great sitter …She was very attentive & responsive each time I checked in with her…she also sent photos of my dog Yuko to reassure me that she was ok… I will definitely use her service again …”


“Once again Katherine took wonderful care of my Minnie. My dog was having a few health problems and Katherine took good care of her, administering her medication and feeding her a special diet. Minnie loves spending time with Katherine, we’ll see her again!”


“Elliott took excellent care of my golden retriever. He responded promptly to all communications, sent me regular updates and photos, and even let her sleep on his bed! He was kind and understanding when I had to shorten my dogs’ stay due to a family emergency.”


“Our pup had a great time with Lisette. She was very helpful and communicative with setting up the booking. We felt good having met her beforehand for a brief meet-and-greet. Would definitely recommend!”


“Holly was a joy to work with and took excellent care of my dog. She was easy to schedule and gave regular updates. My Lulu had a wonderful time and we’d be happy to have Holly watch her again.”
