“Amy was great! We made a request somewhat late. She did not hesitate to accept. She watched our 2 boys while we did an excursion for the day. She greeted us and right away was super friendly with the boys. She made us feel very comfortable leaving our babies for the day. She checked in to let us know how they were doing. The boys were worn out when we picked them up.😀 We even discussed booking her next year when we come back! Highly recommend her!”


“Rosie & James have a dream yard for dogs to play in. We are so thankful they were able to board our fur babies at a last minutes notice on a Sunday. Cooper & Cody we’re very happy when we left them and appeared very happy & comfortable in the picture updates we received while they were taken care of at this loving families home. Would definitely book through them again should we be in the area. Thanks again Rosie & James. Take care and hope to see you all soon in the near future ?❤️?”


“James took great care of our boy for the day! This was my first time using River for doggy daycare, and it went very smoothly. We received pictures and updates throughout the day which was wonderful to come back to once we got service returning from our hike. Would recommend whether you live here or are visiting the area!”

“Autumn is awesome! She kept me updated throughout the day, tons of walks and fun! I can tell Reis had a great time with her and I will definitely be a repeat customer”


“Emily was AMAZING!! Very friendly and accomodating, and frequently kept me updated. Athena was even immediately comfortable with Emily's husband, which *never* happens because she is wary of men. We used the same sitter in Asheville for almost two years, and Athena rarely acknowledged her husband. Emily and her husband made a great team watching after Athena, making sure she was well-exercised and cared for, and even sweet Kitana got involved :) I can't say enough positive things about this family and our experience. We used them for an entire week and will book again soon!”

Carrie was an awesome sitter for my pup Benny! She was very communicative & she kept me updated on his day along with pictures. My pup seemed to really enjoy his stay! I would definitely book again!

Her and her husband took great care of Bruno!! He left happy and seems very comfortable. Bruno gets really nervous around small kids under 6, but he did just fine with her two year old daughter. She followed the instructions that I needed for his care and everything worked out well!!
