“Vanessa took great care of our dog. She kept us updated and shared photos so we knew everything was ok. And our dog came home happy and well adjusted. Definitely recommend using Vanessa for boarding!”
2. Gail D.
“Gail did a great job with Raven. We usually are worried about whether Raven will adjust to a new sitter, but Gail quickly sent us pictures and a note letting us know how quickly she bonded with Raven and how calm she had become.”
3. Lana N.
“I could not be happier with the care Lana provided for my dog Winnie while my family and I were on vacation. She sent videos daily of their many walks and belly rubs and I felt content that my dog was really being loved and cared for while we were away. She went out of her way to set up her home to maximize the pets comfort and safety and I appreciated that. Most importantly, Winnie seemed to really enjoy her time there. The entire process was seemless. I will definitely be using Lana again!”

“Mimi was well taken care of and clean when we picked her up (which is not an easy feat). Glad we had peace of mind while we were on vacation.”
12. Shaun S.
“It was our dog's first night away from us and we feel so fortunate to have found Shaun S. Shaun and his family treated Betty with such love and took so much time to understand our dog, Betty's, routine and personality prior to her visit. It was so nice to receive so many pictures and even videos during her stay... he kept us posted the whole time. When I arrived to pick her up, Betty's tail was wagging as she "introduced" me to Shaun - along with his son and wife. What a lovely family and the perfect home to leave Betty. We already booked 2 more stays!”

I highly recommend using her for anyone that needs to board their dog.”
