“Kat was great! I have never felt more confident that someone was around to take care of my boy than when he was with her. She’s a joy to work with and I definitely recommend her to anyone!”
“Justin took great care of Luke and Leo! They were happy and well looked after. We’re very pleased with his service and will definitely use it again. Highly recommend!”
“Thanks again for another great visit! Journey loves staying with Bill, which makes for worry-free vacations. She is well taken care of and makes herself right at home. She gets plenty of walks, which she loves, and we know she gets plenty of snuggles. We are grateful!!”
“I knew from our first meeting that Nathan and Jackie were the right choice to take care of my Sophie for the 2 weeks I would be in Japan. And I was right. They sent daily pictures/videos of: Sophie playing with their dogs Reilly and Bailey; the kids walking, holding, and loving on Sophie; and photos of some well-deserved chill time. We had excellent communication for the duration of Sophie’s stay with them. Nathan contacted me about a week into her stay to report an issue that he felt needed reviewed by her vet. I agreed and Nathan made the appointment, then took her for a vet visit. The vet also agreed with Nathan and gave Sophie 2 prescriptions. Nathan paid for the vet visit and meds himself (since I was not available at the time). For the next week, Nathan and Jackie gave Sophie the meds prescribed and reported back to me how she was doing with her medical issue. I am so thankful for Nathan’s keen observation and proactive stance on Sophie’s health. The vet visit and daily meds were more than they signed up for and they just took care of it all. I will definitely be taking Sophie back for future boardings, and may even have to take her for occasional visits so she can play with the dogs and the kids!”
“Peggy was great! She had to take in my dog to the vet LAST MINUTE ON CHRISTMAS EVE but didn’t complain so much as a minute. She was also able to get my dog into healthier habits and she lost those last couple pounds we were worried about! Absolutely amazing. 10/10 recommend.”
“Rae and David are great to work with. They took care of my dog and provided updates and pictures throughout the time when they watched her. They also inquired about a possible issue they had noticed with her. Communication was top-notch with only one glitch related to drop-off that was resolved quickly. They were able to work with my travel plans, which were up in the air for a time. I think my dog enjoyed her stay and the companionship. I will not hesitate using Rae and David again if they are available. I'm glad they happened to have availability when it was needed.”
“If I could give her 6 stars I would (RECOMMEND) she will love your fur baby like it is her owns her and Luxe are a heavent sent combo so yes BOOK with Julianne my Gabe misses her already ❤️”
“I couldn't be happier with the care Luna received! Chris and Erika were attentive, loving, and kept me updated with photos. Luna came home happy and healthy! Highly recommend!”
“We are very thankful for Diane and her pup Lulu for watching our pup on Christmas Day and evening. The experience was so much better for us and our pup than dealing with a kennel. Diane was pleasant and responsive throughout the entire process and even took a photo of our pup laying on the couch with her daughter. Thank you Diane for being available and taking good care of Peanut.”
“Amy took great care of Walter! Amy and her whole family greeted Walter to make him feel welcomed. She has a large fenced backyard which is perfect for all of Walter’s energy. She was also good at communicating with us. We could tell he had a good time in her home. We will be back!”
“Lyn took great care of our pup while we were on vacation! She sent us videos and pictures every day and our dog really enjoyed playing with Lyn’s dog, Millie! We would definitely use Lyn again!”
“She was great, friendly and very understanding seeing that it was our first time away from trigger. She made us feel very comfortable. Will recommend to use her service to anyone, I sure will be back. Thanks”
About: I have had pets in the house since I was a kid. Dogs, cats, hermit crabs, rats. I’m punctual and able to adhere to your rules/guidelines concerning your pet. I’m currently retired enjoying my time at home. Will work part time in the fall. We have 2 responsible adults and a teenager in our home that can take care of any needs or playtime your pet may need. I have a fenced yard and one high energy doggie that eats twice a day. Potty breaks are always available. I have 2 gentle, loving cats that enjoy being around other people and dogs.
“Keandra went above and beyond to make sure my dog had a good time. She also was very flexible with pickup/drop off times which was helpful since I had a flight early in the morning. She also gave my dog a free shower and made sure he got plenty of exercise and play time with her dogs. 100% would recommend Keandra”
“Emma was so kind and friendly. Piper was very happy to see her. My dog is a nervous one so that is really important for her to be happy to see someone. I got pictures of Piper during her stay and that made me feel good knowing she was being cared for.”
