1. Matt M.
“I can’t recommend Matt enough! This was the first time I’ve ever left my 15 year old pup with someone outside of family and Matt made the experience 100% stress free. He provided regular updates and made sure my pup had plenty of cuddles and attention. It was clear from the start my pup was in good hands and I felt at ease the entire time. I will definitely be using Matt again for future stays!”

9. Jeffrey H.
“Jeffrey was fantastic with my dog! He sent me lots of updates and pictures while I was away, so I was always confident that Malcolm was being well taken care of.

“Christina was great - she sent picture of our dog, gave updates, and was super responsive by text to set up pick up/drop off times. Apollo was comfortable with her and she treated him well - would book again!”
15. Tiffany B.
“Tiffany is amazing! This was the first time I boarded my Simba. I was so nervous. However, Simba was very well taken care of. Tiffany kept me updated with texts and pictures. She was professional and caring toward not only Simba but me as well. Simba truly enjoyed his stay. I don’t think he wanted to come home! I will definitely use Tiffany’s services again. If you want a reliable, patient, caring, and professional person to care for your pet, Tiffany is your person!!!”
16. Amy M.
“We could not be happier with Amy and her family for the care they gave Daisy while we were on vacation. I could tell how happy Daisy was too. I would highly recommend Amy.”
17. Alexandra O.
“Alexandra boarded our 14 year old super senior pug and she did really well. She used to go to a large boarding facility and when she came home she was very out of sorts and unsettled. Diamond came right back home and settled right back in so it seems that she was happy while we were gone. Alexandra was super responsive and sent daily updates. Overall it was a great experience for us and apparently for her as well :)”
18. Sarah F.
“Sarah was so kind and patient with my sweet boy! She took great care of him and gave him so much one on one attention. He came home so tired and happy! I’ll definitely use her next time I go out of town, and might even book for days where I know I’ll be working late! Everything was so easy and she was truly the most kind and accommodating person.”
19. Amber H.
“Amber was amazing! She took such great care of our old man and treated him like her own! She was quick to respond to all messages, and sent us updates without using asking. I can not recommend her enough; we had such a peace of mind leaving our dog with her!”
20. Hilary R.
“Hilary was an amazing sitter for my girl, she took her for runs, played extensively and even made time to always keep me informed. I would trust her again and again and really appreciate the peace of mind she offered while I was away. ❤️”
