“Top tier stay! This was our first time EVER having to drop our Kenzie off and Megan made us feel so comfortable! I checked in constantly and she never made me feel like a bother! She loved on our fur baby just how she is loved on here at home! Megan will definitely be our forever go to person whenever we are in need! We appreciate you so much!”

“Tara was the best possible sitter Nala could have ? She knows dogs very well, and how to handle 1-2 yr old puppy energy. Tara watched Nala for almost 2 weeks as I was traveling to get married, she sent several pictures and updates along the way which made me feel good knowing Nala was well loved and cared for. Will be using Tara again.”

“Dee's house of pets is a HAPPY house for our fur babies. My little luv bug Tuker (dog) had a great time playing with the other dogs she was sitting for. She sent us pictures that confirmed Tuker playing with them all. Tukers favorite playmate was a standard poodle. Tuker is a Havanese (18lbs :-). I will definitely use her again in the future. Tuker was just as happy when I picked him up as when I dropped him off. The only sad part was Tukers first day back with us, Tuker was looking all over the house for his new playmates. Thanks Dee.”

“Cristina loved on our baby girl as if she was her own. I’m so grateful that our 10 year old pup enjoyed her stay! She is normally anxious, but took well to Cristina and her family. I was also grateful for the daily updates ❤️”

“Britney and her family took such great care of Homer. They loved him like their own. Britney is very communicative and flexible. Homer enjoyed playing with their dogs and sweet children. I will definitely board with Britney again.”

“Julie and her family are a perfect fit for my cat. He immediately went to exploring his area. Julie was always in contact and sent the best pictures. It shows she truly loves fur babies. Scar was so happy there. He loved his stay. I will absolutely use Julie again.”

“My babies absolutely loved her! My Maxx requires a complex medicine routine to include insulin shots, treatment for glaucoma, blindness and vestibular disease and a strict feeding routine. She handled it like a champ in addition to caring for my Lady Poo too. My go to person from now on!”

“Madi and her family were so welcoming and loving to my girls. They provided peace of mind and were accommodating to our extra needs due to being stuck out of town longer than anticipated. She sent multiple daily updates with photos showing me they were in the best of care. My girls experienced so many cuddles, walks, and a lot of playtime…they may have even been reluctant to leave Madi’s home! The communication was beyond excellent and I for sure trust her with my dogs again! 🐾🩷💕”


“Garrett and his wife, Rachel, were wonderful with our older dog, Buster! Rachel welcomed Buster when he selected her as his “surrogate owner” for the weekend and followed her everywhere she went. 😀 Buster not only got fabulous care from both Garrett and Rachel, but their dog, Dax, was a sweetheart and provided Buster with both socialization and exercise while they played in their fenced in back yard. Although this was the first time using Garrett as a care provider, we will definitely be back and highly recommend,….”

“Jen was phenomenal! Honestly the best sitter I’ve ever used. She was quick to respond, send updates, and never made me feel like a burden for asking. My dog had the best time and has been pouting since I picked her up. I will always book Jen if she’s available. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch my dog. She’s incredible!”

“I can see why Jessica has amazing reviews. We boarded our lil precious pup for a work trip and we got updates and pictures twice daily. Maple her golden doodle and her daughter were amazing with our lil Pup. The sweetest moment was when we picked her up her daughter was standing there with a lil card and toy for her new friend. I have the precious card on my refrigerator. It’s so nice to find good people to leave your pup with. We moved to area recently and we got lucky with finding Jessica and her family. We 100% recommend Jessica and her family to board your furry family member. Thank you:)”


“Our dog Tulla had a great time at Ben's house and playing with his dog. They have a nice backyard for outside play. Ben was very responsive to our questions and sent us pictures and updates. Ben was very accommodating and flexible with the drop off and pick up times, which made our time away stress free.”

“Katie was great with all three pups! They loved getting to run and play with Koda in the HUGE fenced yard. Katie sent plenty of pictures too! We will definitely look forward to booking with Katie again!”
“Andre and her family did a fantastic job caring for our mini bernedoodle! Andre was prompt with all communication and scheduling was easy. Her home is welcoming and Biscotti really enjoyed playing with their sweet lab and snuggling her kids. We could tell Biscotti was well-cared for when we brought her back home- she was calm and happy and jumped right back into our family routines- like she had a great vacation too! Thanks, Andre and fam! We’ll definitely book with Andre again.”

“Jessie had the BEST time at Carrie and Kurt’s, I got updates and videos of all the dogs playing together throughout the day!! We will definitely use them again!!!”


“Mary and her husband are amazing with dogs. They genuinely love dogs. My dog was actually very excited to come back to her home. She's my first choice for boarding.”

Emerson watched our Hally for us after her spay surgery, it was a last minute booking but she was more than happy to help. She was very personable, friendly and communicative and sent lots of adorable pictures of our sweet girl. It was clear that Hally had a great time with her when we came to pick her up. We had absolutely zero concerns while Hally was in her care and we would love to book with her again!
