“James (Ray) and his wife Juli were excellent sitters. They don't have pets of their own, but our Lilly enjoyed having total attention I'm sure,, even though she does like other dogs a lot too. They took her on walks at a beach by where they live and we totally appreciated it ! Fed her the many snacks we dropped off with her so she felt more at home.”

Sierra is our go to sitter for sure!”

Our dog was happy to see us but without that “get me outta here” panic look!. Plus she is super responsive, smart, thorough, responsible, thoughtful and just all around sweet. We hope she continues providing boarding for dogs for a long while! Thanks, Lauren!”

It was great to see them playing with Winnie right away and I’m sure they had a blast in the back yard. We will definitely be back and maybe asking for a puppy play date in the future :)”
