Telicia came and met Buster prior to him staying with her, asked questions on what we prefer, his routine, etc. She sent us pictures and videos of him throughout our trip which provided an extra level of comfort knowing he was being taken care of given the love that he looks for. When we picked Buster up we can tell he was very happy, clean, and energized. In the future we will gladly go back to Telicia again without any hesitation!”



“Pam was amazing with our 4 year old cavapoo, Leo! He was given individual attention while also getting ample time to socialize safely and play with the other dogs staying over at camp. Leo has been very anxious over the past few months but he immediately took to Pam and we could tell he was very sad to leave when we picked him up. We received so many pictures and updates that we could totally relax while we were away. We appreciate everything Pam did for us!”

“Christina was a great sitter for my energetic dog. She sent photos and videos of my dog every day while I was on vacation. I trusted my dog was in great hands. She always maintained communication. 5/5”
