“Juliana and her family embraced Aiden like one of their own. He was surrounded by love, constant attention, and she went above and beyond to make us feel secure and kept him safe. She kept in constant contact throughout the day with photo updates as well. I will work with Juliana EVERY single time as there is no one better who will value and love your pup as much she does!”

“Alex and her family were very welcoming. I like that they did a meet and greet just to ensure that my dog would be a good fit for them to take care of. My dog was very excited to be with them and they took great care of him. I received updates and pictures during his stay. I am grateful to them to be able to enjoy my vacation and know that my precious Goose was in great hands. I am appreciative and grateful for such wonderful service.”


“Zenith cared for my dog from February 19–22, and I am so grateful for her. From the start, her communication was thoughtful and consistent. She sent sweet updates, photos, and videos that truly put my heart at ease. It was clear she treated him with genuine love and care, just like I would. I never once worried while I was away. I would happily book with her again and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone special to care for their pup.”

“Patty is godsend! She will love (and slightly spoil) your dog like it’s her very own. Patty kept us up-to-date multiple times a day with messages and photos. She cared for our dog the way we would, simply an Angel. Thank you Patty and Vin for opening your home and heart to our Sully!”

“It was such a pleasure leaving our dog overnight with Rachel and her husband. You can tell what dog-lovers they are! Even though it was only for one night, Rachel sent pictures and videos to keep us updated on the goings on of our pup. It set our minds at ease knowing we could enjoy the holiday without worrying. We’ll be sure to use Rachel again!”

“Upon arrival our dog is always happy to see David. We have boarded with him a couple times a year for several years. David loves the animals and we are confident that our dog is age and we'll cared for every time.”

“Donte is awesome! I've never left Theo with anyone before, this is the first time Theo and I have been separated for more than 24 hrs. This time it was from Saturday to Tuesday. I was supposed to pick up Theo on Monday but I ended up catching tge flue and Donte was more than happy to watch Theo and extra day. On picking Theo up I could tell how happy he was with the care Donte provided. Thanks again Donte, you did an awesome job!”

“Carismeldi was awesome! This was my first time leaving my Mason with someone new and she made me feel very comfortable. I loved getting the pictures and updates reassuring me that my baby was in good hands. I will definitely be using her again in the future!”

“Our black lab stayed with Mitchell for 6 days during the holiday. Michell took great care of our dog who is very energetic and sometimes a troublemaker. Michell sent us daily updates, photos, and sometimes videos. We are very happy with the care. Will be back!”

“We were so glad that we booked with Rhea! She sent updates, photos or short videos each day, and she didn't hesitate to write to us with questions. She has a clean apartment, too, and she clearly enjoyed taking care of our dog! In addition, her dog is also a sweet guy. We appreciate that she doesn't take too many dogs at one time. We definitely recommend her!!”

“Kristina does such a great job with Oli, who clearly loves hanging out at her home while we are away. Kristina sends lots of pictures of her long daily walks and playtime at home.”

“My French bulldog just spent 2 nights with Dana and Max-and he had a wonderful time! He also has a polyp which means wiping after popping-which was handled with care. We will be a steady, repeat customers!!”

“Emily and Christine were fantastic. Our dog had a great time and was very well taken care of. Birdie seemed to really like them and their dog, Lilo. We will definitely book them again in the future.”

“Juliana did an awesome job! She was the first sitter for our puppy and we could not be happier with how things went. We will definitely work with her again. She kept us up to date on her activities and kept our little one on schedule and busy. 💕”

“Carly took excellent care of my dog! She was incredibly responsive, provided frequent updates with adorable pictures, and gave him so much love and attention. He got plenty of exercise and came back happy and well cared for. I really appreciated the peace of mind while I was away. Would absolutely use her again!”

“Bryce was fantastic! Teddy loved being there and will still try to go into the house any time we walk past, which I take as a great sign! Will 100% be booking again when needed.”

“A last minute change to a planned trip made us look for a reasonable alternative to boarding which I won’t ever do again. Brian was proactive and professional in helping us solve our problem. He met our dog right away to make sure it was a good fit. Communication was plentiful (with pics) and we felt good knowing our dog was with someone who cared. We will use him again for sure.”

“Chrissy was absolutely wonderful with Rocko! He warmed up to her very quickly, and the photos and videos she sent us were so helpful and reassuring that our pup was in good hands! We intend to have Rocko stay with Chrissy every time we go away.”


“It was my first time away from my dog and I was very worried if he will be in good hands, but Tamika made sure to keep me updated and assure me! I’m definitely rebooking.”

Barbara was such an amazing host to our puppy Astra! She sent over plenty of pictures and a wonderful video of our pup playing with her dogs. Astra had a great time and came home absolutely exhausted which is a rare sight. Looking forward to booking with her again!

Juliana was wonderful with our baby boy! She gave great pre-boarding communications to us and during boarding, she sent us notes and photo updates. She let us know how he was doing, how he was feeling, and what fun happened each day. She took him on walks and he got plenty of love and play each. He loved Juliana's fenced yard and ability to spend time with other dogs and ate well while he was there. By the time we picked him up after 9 days, he was clearly at home with Juliana and her pups. Juliana was a loving and caring host who cared for our boy like he was her own. We truly appreciate all she did for him and us! She really treated him like we hoped someone would while boarding, and we will definitely work with Juliana for future boarding. Thank you!

Jennifer is the best dog sitter, we love bringing my dog Nico with her. I know he is going to be cared for when we drop him off and she provides excellent communication and picture updates. Nico is happy to see her always - she is a gem among dog sitters we are so greatful to have found her!

We couldn't be happier with Rachel! She took amazing care of our dog, Stella, for a weekend stay. We received several updates and adorable photos, which gave us complete peace of mind. Stella tends to have separation anxiety but immediately settled in with Rachel and came home calm, happy, healthy, and tired from all the playtime. We'll definitely book again!

Jessica was absolutely amazing with Louie! She was kind, sweet, patient, and took great care of him throughout his stay. She also allowed us to do a meet and greet beforehand, which made us feel very comfortable leaving Louie in her care. What stood out most was how compassionate and understanding she was when we received unfortunate news during our trip. She truly went above and beyond during a very difficult time, and we appreciated her kindness so much. We would absolutely recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter, and we would gladly book with her again!

I felt very comfortable leaving Bella with Alexandra and her family. They were warm and welcoming to her, and I left their home feeling a sense of relief. When we returned to pick her up, she actually seemed a little sad about leaving them… Lol I highly recommend Alexandra for your boarding needs.
