10. Jennafer D.
“COULDN’T BE HAPPIER with the service and care Jennafer D. and family gave my two older dogs. Her divided dog runs gave me real peace of mind as both of my dogs have been unprovokedly attacked in the past. Even my “problem child” 8 yr old Maltese had a great time romping with new “friends.”. We got great updates with photos showing my dogs happily playing with other dogs just one day into their 8 night stay. I was worry-free about my dogs for the first time in years. I highly recommend Jennafer D.”

“Caitlyn and Anthony took excellent care of my small dog. She has fun playing with their dachshunds and they made sure she got her twice daily medications as well as handled her special diet well. Minnie is definitely going to stay again!”
15. Luz C.
“Luz was taking care of our two small dogs for 5 days. We were getting multiple daily updates with pictures. The pups were happy and relaxed. They came home and acted like they did not notice any change. We used to left them in vets office where they were caged for the most part, so it was always adjustment to come from there. With Luz they were allowed to be around the house free. Still had their cage for feeling secure. Just like at home. We loved the experience and we would recommend Luz's house for any pet owner. We will be using her service in the future. Thank you.”
16. Lisa S.
“This is the second time we leave our Poker with Lisa, she is a very welcoming person, she sent us updates and pictures everyday. Lisa answers to your messages very quickly, great experience!”
17. Maritza H.
“Maritza, did a great job in caring for Scottie whilst we were on vacation for a month. She continued to send me photos and updates. She lives in a clean, well maintained and homely one storey house, with a very large manicured fenced in garden . The dogs can roam around inside and out. Each dog has plenty of room for their own bed. When we collected Scottie, his bed had been washed and Scottie was regularly groomed with a brush due to him shedding. I have no hesitation to recommend Maritza and would use her again . Scottie is already missing her and his doggie friends.”
18. Sheree B.
“Sheree was great! She sent me updates and let me know how my baby was doing. She was also understanding if I had a change in travel plans. I would totally use it again!!”
19. Laura A.
“Laura and her family made our Annie ( 11 year old yellow Labrador Retriever) feel right at home. Laura was so easy to communicate with and sent us pictures everyday. Annie was able to sleep on her dog bed in their room which I’m sure helped her feel secure. We definitely recommend Laura as an outstanding person to care for your pet when you cannot.”
20. Yarixa R.
“Yarixa was very kind and great with Pommer. The communication was great from the beginning! She sent lots of updates throughout the stay and Pommer had such a great time under her care!”
