“Maegan and Her Family Were Great With Our Dog Luke …They Made Him Feel at Home while he was There…I Will Be Using Her Again Soon for My Next Vacation…”


“Brigid was perfect for my older dog Scout. She is very loving and attentive. Scout seemed very content with Brigid, who kept me updated with photos and videos. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for Scout.”


“Chrissy was amazing with our puggle, Dash! She kept us updated and we received pics everyday which we all loved, especially my daughter- she looked forward to them. Dashie doesn’t stay away from home often so he gets a little anxious and she handled it like a pro. He came home happy and tired after a fun few days.”


“Cheryle is a great dog-sitter. Her house is well set-up for a little dog, with low couches, ramps and lots of cozy spots. Her dachsund was a great companion for my dog, Roscoe. Roscoe came home calm and happy after 5 days at Cherlye's. He was on a variety of meds for a sore back and she managed all those well and took great care of him.”


“Larry took excellent care of our dog while we were away for the weekend. He was extremely professional and made sure to ask questions to ensure our dog was as comfortable as possible. We received updates during our time away on how our little guy was doing. We were extremely satisfied with our experience and will definitely keep Larry in mind for our next trip!”


“(I have a BullyMix) Jayla is great! Warm personality can see she is caring and my pup will be in great hands and he was!! This was my first time and my pups first of staying overnight and overall with someone he doesn't know. She shared pictures and updates and accommodated my delay in schedule. He seemed happy and at ease! Thank you will be booking again.”



“Nia was absolutely incredible. She made Jambi comfortable and was super accommodating especially when my flight back to Albany was delayed. Her home is so accommodating for dogs and Jambi was happy with her. She sent video updates frequently and let me know exactly what he was up to. I was so pleasantly surprised. Highly recommend her.”


“Richelle has been amazing. She met with myself and Eevee and she was professional, loving accommodating. She understood what Eevee's needs were and was able to explain them to me. Helped with Eevee trying to socialize with her own dogs. Her home was clean, serene and definitely accepting. I will book her again.”

Catherine, we cannot thank you and your family enough!!! ❤️❤️❤️”


“Amanda was awesome! Clear communicator and super friendly. Amanda is also in a great location right off 787, and has a big house for dogs to explore and have fun. She took my guy hiking in brutally cold weather. Will book again.”


“Jessica is the best. My dog is 14 years old and set in his ways, Jessica was great with him. Sent me pics and kept me updated on all phases of the day. Would recommend her to anyone. Very friendly and responsive. Looking forward to my next vacation and will definitely be requesting her. Jessica, Thank you for taking such good care of Dusty.”

“Emmaly was wonderful with our 6 month old mini goldendoodle. She made us feel at ease weeks before the boarding, answering all of our questions, and allowing us to meet her and her dogs. Emmaly provided us with pictures and messages about Daisy’s day. She also accommodated a last minute request. I will absolutely use Emmaly’s services in the future, and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy in the area.”
