1. Victoria Z.

“Victoria was fantastic! Very dependable, punctual and easy to communicate with. She sent me photos during cooper’s stay with her. Very nice set up at her home with the fenced yard and dog beds, you can tell she cares for her clients. Cooper was calm and happy when I picked him up. I will definitely use her services again if in that area.”


2. Heidi S.


“Heidi took amazing care of my boy. He is a big snuggler and he was able to sleep in bed with her like he does at home. She also sent lots of pictures so I knew he was having fun. I will definitely send my boy back!”


3. Kelly D.

“We are so grateful to have found Kelly! She took such wonderful care of our dog while we were away, treating him like part of her own family. Communication was excellent — we received regular updates with photos that put us completely at ease. It was clear from the moment we met Kelly that she genuinely loves animals and has a real gift for connecting with them. Our dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust Kelly again for future stays!”


4. Janice A.


“Wowza!!!! Janice is amazing! Not only did she provide tender loving care for our dog, Pasquale, but she was sooooo accommodating when our flights were changed last minute. We could not have found a better match for our needs. We love Janice….XO😘”


5. Austin & Francis C.
“We have already re-booked our lab mix with Austin and Francis & family for our next trip out of town! Roxy had the best time, we got regular text and photo updates, and we are so happy they enjoyed our dog as much as we do. They love animals, had a very clean home, and are excellent communicators. Would highly recommend! Their location was great for us as we were traveling south from Portland and just needed a quick detour of the highway to a small town we'd never visited.”


6. Tomislav & Hillary J.

“Tomislav and Hillary were so wonderful to Goose! They treated him like their own, sent frequent updates, and overall were super easy to work with (and flexible since I booked a day in advance!). Would definitely recommend.”


7. Amanda A.

“Amanda was great, just like family. Her 3 little kids kept my old pup Sophie busy playing and getting smothered with attention. She has a big yard and a big house so Sophie could have her own space if she wanted. She was also available for a last minute booking which was really good for us.”


8. Wyatt B.

“Wyatt was amazing! Izzy was so well cared for and I enjoyed my vacation exponentially more with lots of updates ensuring she was having fun including an adorable video of them playing together outside! izzy can’t wait to come back!”


9. Jeanne Y.


“This review is a little late but Cinta had the best time at Jeanne's! Lots of outdoor time and Jeanne is a great communicator. Thank you for taking such good care of her!”


10. Diana C.

“Diana was the best!! She kept my dog twice for a week at a time and worked exceptionally well with Bear. Will definitely book her again in the future.”


11. Heidi A.

“Heidi is awesome! She’s made her home the perfect place for dogs to be! She is very experienced and has been wonderful all 3 times we’ve had our pups stay with her!”




12. Briana H.

“I always feel at ease when Briana takes care of my dog! He’s on the smaller side and doesn’t play with other dogs often so I was a little nervous at first, but he has a great time with her pups and is tired out from all his fun when he gets home. I love getting those pictures throughout the weekend so I can see how he’s doing. I would 100% recommend her for dog sitting/boarding.”


13. Michelle S.

“Michelle was so kind and her communication with us was great! She sent us updates throughout the day about Bear and sent us lots of pictures! I would definitely trust her with our pup again :)”


14. Emily C.

“Emily was awesome! She took amazing care of Stormy and made us feel so comfortable while we were away with daily photo updates and great communication! We would 100% leave Stormy with her again!”


15. Elisabeth K.

“Elisabeth makes Louise feel so welcome and at home. Louise is so excited to get out of the car there and I am so at ease knowing she is so well cared for. Highly highly recommend Elisabeth!”




16. Trisha G.


“Trisha and her husband were outstanding! They kept us in the loop at all times, and sent frequent photos to show us what our golden retriever was up to. Their dog Stout was a great companion for our golden as well. I highly recommend them as dog sitters!”


17. Carmen H.

“Carmen was kind and understanding with our dog. And overall just seems like a very nice person. She worked with us on dropoff and pickup and was pretty flexible. Figo seemed to have a lot of fun with her. She has a nice house and overall it seemed she lived in a dog friendly neighborhood so definitely recommend boarding with her.”


18. Julia P.

“Julia took care of our dog for a week while we were traveling. It was great to get photos and updates, and our dog was clearly very comfortable and happy to be there!”


19. Christina R.

“Christina was amazing with our granddogger, Roxie. Roxie is elderly and has special needs and Christina handled all of her needs with care and compassion. It's nice to know that we can go away and leave Roxie in good hands. I highly recommend Christina.”


20. Danielle A.

“Dani was great with our 10 year old mixed breed Georgia. Georgia was there for 7 nights while we were away and we didn’t worry once. We even got updates and Dani was easy to work with. Georgia is used to playing alone so she was pooped when we picked her up. We’ll definitely use Dani again.”
