“Brooklyn was great. Sent plenty of pictures. Ammo was a little timid at first. Brooklyn sent me picture and kept me updated on his comfortability progression and it didn't take long. Work recommend her for sure!”
“Our third stay with Christine and as always, a pleasure. The pups got the attention and care they needed. They had adequate play time and enjoyed their time away from home!”
“She is a wonderful sitter. We left our kittens for around 2weeks and she often sent us pictures which really made us happy. They appear to enjoy their stay with her. Thank you so much!”
“Wow. This was our first experience with Rover and Rodney and we are so thankful to have found such a loving & FUN home for our dog when we are gone! Henry had a fantastic time playing with other dogs and being accepted for the puppy he is! To be honest, we were happy he wanted to come home with us! Lol! He was living his best life! Freedom outdoors in a fenced yard and so many dog friends to play with. He ate great which is a sign of happiness. I would give 10 ✨if I could. Rodney is a wonderful person! Thank you!”
“I felt so comfortable leaving Pearl with Jennifer! You can tell that she really cares and loves dogs. Pearl got frequent walks and lots of play time. She came home happy and wore out! I will definitely book again with Jennifer.”
“Great experience!!! Nicole was amazing and I was very comfortable leaving my dog with her. Open communication and she sent me several pictures. Will definitely use Nicole again if I need a dog sitter.”
“Jason and Kristen’s family always take such good care of our dog. They are great with communication with daily pics and updates!! They give him lots of care and attention.”
“Alice is an amazing sitter. She took such great care of my dog while I was away. My dog has a lot of allergies and skin issues and ended up needing to see the vet and have a minor surgery. Alice made sure she was well taken care of and got her to all her appointments and gave her the appropriate after care. She is the best pet sitter I've ever used and I would use her again.”
“Maci was absolutely the best, we are so glad that we found her! She clearly as a heart for animals, and her home is situated in the country where our farm dog felt right at home and was able to run and play just like he does at home. Her dog Bodhi is such a sweet pup, I think our pup had even more fun because he had a buddy. Can't recommend her highly enough!”
“Love Fay, what a wonderful dog sitter, I’d trust Fay with my kids if I had any small children anymore. Fay was very caring, sent me photos around the clock of my dog’s activities which included long walks, napping, making friends with Fay’s dog. It was nice my dog Bao had a friend for a while in her care. I’d rebook with Fay in a heartbeat. Wonderful person.”
“Sarah was phenomenal!!! She is very pet savvy and knows her stuff! She was quick to respond to messages. Hunter had a good time and to say the least wore out by the end of his stay. Hunter had plenty of room to stretch his legs and utilize his sniffer. We will be using Sarah in the future.”
“My pup stayed with Julia and working with her was great! She was easy to work with and gave consistent updates with pictures every day. I would definitely recommend Julia for anyone needing dog boarding.”
“Chance had the best time yet again!!! Brooke has been so kind and attentive to Chance. Love dropping her off knowing she’s in good hands. We appreciate you, Brooke and buddy!”
“Victoria and Rishi are incredible! Leon took a liking to them immediately and felt like staying with them was his second home away! Leon was always happy when I picked him up and actually didn’t want to leave 😂. I know that Leon is safe and happy in their hands. If you are type of person that likes to be communicated with frequently about your pup, you can text them and they will give you an update.”
“Kasey was an excellent choice for watching our puppy, Rocky. She provided regular updates throughout our trip, which gave us peace of mind. When we returned, Rock was happy and well cared for. We highly recommend Kasey for pet sitting!”
“Paige gets a 10 out of 5 stars from us! We were nervous about leaving our spunky puppy with anyone during our trip, and Paige was extraordinary. She and Decky were loving and took such great care of Maisy. Her care gave us the peace of mind we needed to enjoy our travels. She sent us so many photos and went above and beyond what we asked carewise. THANK YOU!!”
“Great thanks to the wonderful job Christina and Jennifer did taking in our Moose during the Thanksgiving holiday period. They showed him excellent care, provided frequent pictures, allowed him to socialize (as best he could) with other dogs, and their rural farm property provided unending new interesting things for him to sniff both in their large back yard and on their "pack walks". Would definitely consider boarding Moose with them again!”
