Bobbi was great with Star! We did a meet and greet, discussed any concerns and routines, went over personalities of other pets that may be there during the same time, and covered any scheduling details. I was sent tons of updates and pictures, which made me and my kids very happy. I will absolutely book with her again!

Jennifer did an amazing job with Silo. It was my first time leaving her overnight with a Rover, and Jennifer methodically acclimated Silo to her space, introduced to her to her own pets and made she had all the information she needed to take good care of her. It was very confidence inspiring, and I got tons of pictures of my pup while I was gone. Overall a great experience, I would definitely leave Si with Jennifer again anytime!

Dana was wonderful. Sophie and Bodhi loved her. Bodhi is a special needs dog, visually impaired. She made a point to make sure that Bodhi was comfortable and was included with the group. Thank you Dana!

Took fantastic care of Mimi! Mimi can be an anxious dog but she warmed up to Kelly real quick🩷. The frequent updates kept us reassured during our trip that she is in great hands.

Amanda did awesome caring for our Boston Terrier, Moses. She sent photo updates regularly and even let him sleep with them in the bed after I let her know how much he loves to snuggle and be close to humans! I feel like she knows what she is doing as she cares for all the dogs needs that are in her care! I recommend her to anyone looking for a place to board their pup and I will definitely be calling again to board, Moses. (probably towards the end of March) :)

Kana and Brian are so great!! I've taken my dogs there 3 times now and I think they are sad when they get home. We don't have a fenced in yard and they have a great one and my dogs love to run and be free. Can't wait to take them back soon!!

Aliesha was very accommodating and welcoming to our sweet guy! We did a meet and greet first to make sure everyone got along and it went well. He stayed 6 days and she took him on several walks, kept me updated on status and sent me pics. He’s on a special diet and gets daily meds and supplements and she was a pro at understanding his needs. I knew he was completely at ease and comfortable in her care when she sent me a picture of him sleeping all sprawled out on his back in his most vulnerable state. I would definitely choose Aliesha to care for him again. ❤️🐶

Great experience boarding my dog w Larissa for 3 nights. Leaving your dog with someone new can be stressful, but she made the whole process so easy and reassuring. Communication was great the entire time & I really appreciated the daily updates/photos while I was away. My dog can be pretty independent & likes doing his own thing & she really seemed to understand his personality & made him feel comfortable. When he was picked up, he was relaxed, happy & clearly well cared for. I would absolutely trust Larissa again in the future & I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter.

Fabulous experience! I was super worried about leaving my pup, as he is a bit submissive and can regress pretty quickly. Elizabeth was amazing with him, he quickly decided he liked her and seemed very comfortable in her house. Elizabeth kept me updated, sent me pictures and treated my guy just the way I do (super spoiled). He came home happy, tired and for the first time, I didn’t worry the whole time I was away. I can’t thank her enough, very positive experience!

Bobbi was so great with our two dogs. This was their first time going to a non-family member for overnight boarding and she made it such a great transition for them. She was patient, caring, and they did really well while there. Bobbi shared updates and pictures throughout which helped us not feel too apart from them. We're so happy that we found her and we're definitely booking with Bobbi again!

Louann was an amazing sitter for our dog! She familiarized herself with our dog’s likes, behaviors and personality. Louann communicated regularly while she watched our dog’s likes and sent plenty of pictures of their activities and adventures. I highly recommend Louann to anyone for dog related services. Louann truly adopted our “fur baby” and loved her like her own. Top notch care and love will be given to your puppy too!

Daina and her family were so nice to our two labradors. I know that they can sometimes be a handful especially when they want to take all your socks out in the backyard. Dana was patient with them and they seemed very happy and healthy when we returned from our week long trip.

This is our second boarding experience with Jennifer and she took good care of Blaze! He fit in really well with her doggy crew, she shared so many pictures and messages which helped us feel at ease being away... she even did a custom, adorable Valentines themed photoshoot with Blaze. Really appreciate you Jennifer!
