“Rover had a great time with his new found friend Butcher. Tara was great at sending daily updates and being accommodating when our flight got delayed. She has a very big fenced backyard for the dogs to play. Rover will be back whenever we are out of town again. Thanks!”
“Min & Matthew were great! My pup has some anxiety problems. They were very patient with her and were able to settle her down without using the medication I sent just in case she needed it. I loved all the pictures and videos. They gave our dog lots of love and snuggles. Will absolutely will be using them again in the future.”
“Barbara took amazing care of my anxious dog. She provided daily updates of how my dog was adjusting. Thankfully, my dog adjusted quickly and had a wonderful time playing with Dobby and the daycare dogs. I was only a little worried my dog wouldn't want to go home because Barbara took such great care of her.”
“Maki was excellent with Bruno. She was very caring and kept us up to date on everything including photos and videos. She took him on walks played with him and in general made him feel very comfortable and loved.”
“Erin and her family were absolutely amazing! Our dog Millie was so well cared for and genuinely loved during her stay. The communication was excellent throughout—we always felt confident that she was in great hands. We will definitely book with Erin again the next time we travel. Huge thanks to Erin and her family for taking such wonderful care of Millie!”
“Laura was so great with Teddy! He loved playing with Gin!!! You can tell she really cares, and we felt totally comfortable leaving him with her. Selfishly, I almost don’t want to tell people how awesome she is 😉 We’d definitely book with her again if she’ll have him!”
“Samantha is truly a gem and cared for my dog like her own. She sent regular pics and videos. My dog felt at ease for 5 days with her. I wholeheartedly recommend her!!”
“Tamara was great! My dogs had a great time at her place and they were very well taken care of. My senior dog needed medication and to take it easy and Tamara had no problem accommodating him, while my younger dog was playfully active and Tamara also took great care of her.”
“Sofia has a very energy that made my dog Gigi feel comfortable right away. She sent photo updates everyday which was great. I think Gigi also benefited from getting to spend some extended time with other dogs, which she rarely gets. So happy to find someone in the area that I can trust with my dog.”
“Kathryn and her family took great care of our Banjo and he loved romping around with their dogs. In fact, I think we now have to get our dog his own dog. 😆 They kept us updated on how Banjo was doing and I could tell he enjoyed having dog buddies, human siblings, and a large fenced yard for zoomies. Thanks again, Kathryn & family!”
“Kristen took really excellent care of our precious Holly! Holly came home happy and relaxed and actually more confident about going places and meeting other dogs — we could see a difference when we took her to the groomer today. Will absolutely use her again!!”
“Renee and her husband were great sitters for our 18-month old, very anxious rescue dog. They were very accommodating - we needed to adjust dates and they were fine with that. Maggie had a great time with them - they gave her time to feel confident and comfortable before introducing her to the other dogs in their household. I received a picture and a happy update each day of Maggie's stay. They were comfortable administering Maggie's daily medicine.”
“We always feel reassured that our pup is taken care of and they’re happy to have her. Daisy is treated like the princess she is. I highly recommend their family to watch your beloved pets.”
“Christina was so easy and affable to work with. She clearly has a true love of all animals and is in tune with the needs of the dogs that she cares for. The environment is perfect for the dogs to run free and get plentiful exercise in play and be well looked after. It was our first time leaving our nearly 2 year old lab for a significant time and he settled in well and seemingly had a great time! We will absolutely be using Christina again and would highly recommend her services.”
“Tatiana was simply wonderful! Our pup truly thrived in her care and seemed so happy with her and her family. She sent us so many delightful pictures, which really gave us peace of mind while we were away. I’m so grateful for her kindness and attentiveness, and I will absolutely reach out to her again to care for our fur baby. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a loving and trustworthy person to look after their pets.ss, and I will absolutely reach out to her again to care for our fur baby.

Emily was awesome! We have a nervous Weimaraner and she had him for a full week with zero concerns. She sent me pictures and updates of all their hiking adventures and asked questions to make sure she cared for him just like we do. So appreciative of her and can’t wait to book with her again!
Connor was great with Teo! It is the second year I have left Teo for my summer vacation with Connor, and I have been able to enjoy my free time without any worry. I received a lot of updates on my baby dog, who was having a great time with his dog friends, playing and bathing in the sun. He also took care of giving Teo his flea medication. I highly recommend Connor!
