“Rosie always has fun at Kendyl’s house! Thanks again for your kind and gentle way with Rosie. It’s always a relief to know that Rosie is in good hands when we need a sitter!!”


“I vacation at Massanutten and dropped my dog off with these lovely folks for the week, and it was the most professional and welcoming boarding experience I’ve had. Plenty of space for the dogs to exercise and play, with the warmth of a family atmosphere. My boy Mac had as fun of a week here as I did on my vacation, and he’s still tired from all the activity. I can’t say enough about how lovely these folks are, and the peace of mind of having my buddy nearby while I’m on vacation is amazing.”


“This is the first time I've left Gunner overnight with anyone and Scott and Sarah are phenomenal. I would leave my dog with them 100x over they are wonderful. They let gunner sleep in bed with them even though he's 95 pounds (sorry haha) and they really accepted him like he's their own family. I highly recommend them!”


“Amanda was great with our puppy, Pampa. We got lots of updates on how she was doing and was very easy to communicate with. Her dog Theo was great with Pampa too, you could tell they had a lot of fun together over her stay. Would definitely recommend Amanda for anyone looking for a dog sitter! We’ll be sure to use her in the future as well.”


“This was my first time leaving my 8 month old puppy since I got him. He is a pretty anxious dog, which made me an anxious mother. Clayton and Brittany were great; they were unfazed by his quirks, and allowed him space to adjust. Apparently he adjusted just fine; climbing into laps. They have a large fenced yard and two lively dogs; such a fun, busy weekend for my pup! I highly recommend them…”


“Hank came home exhausted which means he had a blast. Cynthia did a great job in every Dept from communication to updates throughout the weekend. We were extremely pleased with her work.”


“First time leaving any of my dogs with a petsitter that I hadn't known beforehand! Jessica was wonderful and accommodating for my nervousness and my pups timid nature. I regularly got photos and videos of Razz having an absolute BLAST with Jessica and her dogs. I wouldn't hesitate to book her again, and I know my pup had a wonderful experience.”


“Thank you for providing such kindness and attentiveness to my Ellie girl! I can tell she felt very comfortable being with your family, and I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing she was in such good hands. Would definitely board with you again the future!”


“This is my second time using Beth as a dog sitter because my 5 year old Golden Doodle loves her! When I dropped off my dog for the weekend, she was so excited to see Beth that she ran into her house and made herself right at home again. I am positive they has a great weekend and I would highly recommend Beth to watch your dogs.”


“Mairany was kind, thoughtful, attentive, and so very loving to our fur babies! She sent regular updates and photos. We are so grateful for Mairany-she truly is an animal lover and made sure not only our fur babies were comfortable and cared for, but we were reassured as well. Highly recommend Mairany! She is absolutely amazing 🤩”


“My dear pet stayed the weekend with Joanna and Travis. They took excellent care of her, sent photos and updates. They provide a safe and happy place for dog boarding. I highly recommend them. They are great people.”


“Rebekah was wonderful with our older dog and puppy. Both seemed to be relaxed and enjoy their time with her. Rebekah sent lots of pics throughout the visit. I'll definitely book again.”

“Whitney is amazing! She was so sweet to our high energy dog, took her on lots of walks, spent lots of time outside with her, and even ran with her! We would use her again without hesitation!! Seeing fun pics of our puppy everyday while we were away was so reassuring that she was in great hands!! Thanks Whitney!!”


“Reuben took excellent care of my dog, Maverick. He genuinely cared about the well-being of animals and wants to make sure your pet is comfortable. I had no worries about Maverick or his care while I was out of town. Thank you!”


“Katelyn was amazing. Very attentive. Reached out to us everyday with pictures and videos. Great communication throughout the whole visit. Our dogs loved her. Very easy to work with. We did an initial visit then she agreed to watch on the spot. April, her dog, is amazing as well. We will definitely go with her again!”


“Danielle was amazing with our cat, Kinako! This was her first time being away from home, but it was very obvious from the pictures and updates that she was in great hands. It was also her first time being around so many other pets, but they were very sweet with her and she seemed surprisingly at ease :) We're excited to book with Danielle again whenever we're out of town!”


“Brandy is amazing! Valley always enjoys herself when she’s over there. Brandy updates constantly and sends photos to you with the updates. She was also very helpful with letting me pick my dog up later than I expected to be in town!”
