“Boarding with Ellen was outstanding. We had a family emergency that made taking our large dog with us impossible. He’s five-years old and had never been away from home - I am sure it was challenging for him. While not aggressive or disobedient, at about 120lbs he can be intimidating. Ellen was clearly very comfortable with him during our meet and greet visit and was very confident he’d be fine with her. He absolute was! She made him very at home on her beautiful farmette with her pack of critters. They all looked clean and loved. I noted her calmness with the dogs and confidence in their interaction under her watchful eye. The dogs have plenty of space to run and socialize. She made sure we gave her his “regular” food and medications, and verified other foods he would be allowed to have. She sent regular updates and photos during his stay. Each action shot was accompanied by a thoughtful narrative of the photo. We really enjoyed pictures of his quiet time, napping with the other dogs in her home was comforting. They all looked content. We needed an extra day of boarding because of the unpredictability of our travel and Ellen made it so easy. Our dog made new friends and we did too.”
“Terri and Chuck are so caring and so thorough with their fur guests. They welcomed our pup Sienna with open arms, and followed all of our instructions for care. Terri genuinely loves animals and it shows in the care she gives them. We loved the many pictures and video updates during our trip. Thank you Terri!”
“Lucy was well taken care of at Renee's. I had peace of mind while I was away and Renee communicated when she needed advice about Lucy. I would recommend Renee for anyone needing a place their dog.”
“Yvi and Christians hospitality was amazing. They were incredibly dependable and made sure my dog felt secure and cared for while I was gone. It was clear they truly enjoy their work, and it gave me such peace of mind knowing my pet was in such capable hands. I'll definitely be booking with them again!"”
“Words cannot express my satisfaction having Annette look after Axel. Learning of her experience with fosters it was a no brainer to book with her. My experience dropping off and picking up, seeing her interact with my boy and hearing how she handled situations with him, solidified she will be my go to sitter. It was wonderful peace of mind to know Axel would be taken care of in a lovely home environment.”
“Our dog Mia had the BEST time with Ruth while we were on vacation. She sent me pictures every day and spoiled her! She had puppy ice cream, walks every day, and came home so happy. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay! We will definitely return!”
“Awesome and lovely dog loving family. Knight had a great time. I appreciate their flexibility and accommodations when I had a delayed travel flight departure, that affected my pick-up time.”
“5/5 Stars – Exceptional Care for Bella! We couldn't have asked for a better sitter for our sweet Bella during our trip. Dorian was great, responsive from the start, and he sent updates as soon as possible when I requested. Bella came home happy and relaxed. We definitely will book with him again in the future. If you're looking for someone who treats your dog like family, Dorian is your person, we highly recommend!”
“Wow! My family and I felt and knew we left our pups in great hands with Michelle. She sent daily updates and photos. One photo looked like my dog was literally smiling. I would book again in a heartbeat with Michelle!”
“Zeke had a great time at Samantha’s. She gave us constant updates. She took special care of Zeke as he has some hip issues. I glad I found her and would definitely use her services in the future.”
“Rene was so wonderful with my senior boy. I was anxious to leave him for the first time ever but, Rene’s sweet and welcoming disposition took away all my fears. We will definitely be seeing her again!”
“Chrissy is amazing! This was my first time using Rover, and I was concerned about boarding my puppy after a procedure. However, she quickly alleviated any worries and followed care instructions impeccably. I also appreciated the frequent updates.”
“Marieliz was wonderful!! we received so many pictures and videos of our pup during our trip, we never had to wonder how she was doing! I’m fairly certain that our dog had the time of her life this week. She even got new enrichment activities! We will definitely be bringing her back next time we travel out of the country, we know it will be a great experience for her! Not just doggy daycare, but a doggy vacation!”
“Jennifer was great with our pets. This was our first time leaving them with her, and we really appreciated the frequent photo updates. Seeing the pictures gave us peace of mind and made the experience enjoyable for both the kids and us. Highly recommend!”
“Olivia took great care of Mocha and kept me updated throughout the stay. She was kind, reliable, and clearly cared about him. I really appreciated the peace of mind and would definitely recommend her.”
“Robin was wonderful with my boxer, Charma! Charma came home happy and sleepy! She was communicative and let me know how charma was doing often! I will definitely have Robin keep Charma again.”
“Min and Matt were a last minute booking, but they worked out so well. I was even able to stay an extra day on my vacation while they kept my pup. They made sure to walk and play with him multiple times a day. He was very well cared for and smiled his time at their house. I would highly recommend using them in the future.”

Robin was very good at sending photos and videos of our dog while we were away, She kept us informed on how he was doing. Puck has never been socialized and Robin worked with him on learning to get along with her dog. Her twin sons were also very helpful in taking care of Puck. Hunter, her one son, especially made sure Puck felt at home immediately after we arrived. Overall Puck received excellent care and I would use Robin again if I go away. Thank you Robin and family for taking such good care of our dog! We were able to relax on our trip knowing he was in good hands.
Cindy did an excellent job caring for Tobias. She is very knowledgeable about dog behaviors and she is so kind. She has a nice fenced-in yard that is great for dogs to run around and play. This is the first time we have ever left him with anyone overnight. Cindy sent updates, pictures and videos throughout his stay and was very responsive. Tobias came home happy. We'll definitely call on Cindy for future stays.
Marieliz did an excellent job of caring for Lucy. She was very intuitive of Lucy’s needs and gave her time and space to warm up. She provided daily summaries of how her day went and generously sent pictures. Lucy did very well with Marieliz and I would highly recommend her. Lucy will be back in the future.
Nancy was very warm and friendly. We had a lovely meet and greet at the park, then scheduled an overnight visit for Lexie. She kept me informed with pics and video so I could see how well Lexie was adjusting to a new environment. Nancy was highly attentive to Lexie during her stay. Would definitely call upon Nancy again! 🙂
Emily took such great care of my two goldens! They went on walks, played at the park, and got lots of love and attention. She sent so many great pictures and videos of them being goofballs- it made me feel less guilty for leaving them when we had to leave town. I HIGHLY recommend her for your dogs, and we will definitely use her again in the future!
Elizabeth was wonderful. She was very caring and very professional while taking care of our dog. Our dog had an episode of vomiting and anxiousness while in Elizabeth’s care and it was handled like a pro. I would highly recommend her to anyone, and I definitely will be calling on her in the future.
