Tia and Lea are amazing! They're so nice and welcoming! They took great care of our two dogs, sent lots of pictures and videos. It was a big help for me and my husband while we were away, we knew our dogs were well taken care of. We'll definitely choose Tia if we need to board out dogs again.

Sophie had a great stay with Adam. Adam took her on lots of walks to burn off her puppy energy and sent pictures of their adventures. We had Sophie on a pretty restrictive diet to figure out an allergy and Adam was able to help us keep her on it. Wonderful stay and worry free for me.

Michael and his family did a great job watching Samson for his extended (12 day) stay. Samson was treated like one of their own and well taken care of. We had no concerns and Samson came home exhausted. We appreciate their hospitality and genuine concern for our dog. I would recommend and book with them again in the future.

About: Hi, I'm Angela! I’ve spent my entire life surrounded by dogs, and I truly believe a home isn’t complete without the sound of four paws on the floor. I recently said goodbye to my beloved Pit Bull, Bia. She was my world, and I want to treat your pup with the same devotion, patience, and affection that I gave to her. My fiancée, Lauren, and I have her two dogs 2 weeks out of the month and they are great with other dogs and love to make friends! I work from home during the day and am a dance teacher in the evening. Between the two of us we have flexibility most of the day for house visits, walks, boarding, and daycare! I work from home during the day and my fiancée is home in the evening so we have a flexible schedule to give your furkid lots of love and attention! I have a large backyard on a quiet residential street and 2 sweet dogs part time who love to make friends! I have the ability to crate dogs of all size in my home and will not accept dogs from multiple families at one time so your baby will be spoiled!

Matt is the best! Our dog absolutely loves Matt and his family. They have a beautiful home with a fenced in yard and it is such a wonderful feeling knowing that we can go out of town and our dog is in great hands. After our last dog sitter closed her business we were afraid we would never find a replacement, but Matt is truly excellent and we can not recommend him enough!

Valerie is awesome with our little pup Whiskey. Val is always sharing photos and videos of our lil guys day. We feel so trusted in leaving our pup in the hands of Val as we know he’s in great hands and will get the attention he gets when he’s with us. Love having Whiskey taken care of by Val when mom and dad have to be away.

Steve was amazing with our dog, Winnie. This was our first trip without her, and without Steve, I definitely would’ve been worrying about her and how she was doing. Instead, we got daily updates showing Winnie living her absolute best life and getting completely spoiled. Honestly, our only concern by the end was whether she’d want to come home. Steve is clearly an animal lover and just a cool person. If you want your dog to have an awesome vacation of their own, book with Steve.

Tamara was an excellent sitter for my little dog! I will definitely book her in the future! I'm not sure my dog even wanted to come home. She was comfortable there from the get go! Tamara also went above and beyond when my dog grabbed a chicken bone thrown in the grass.

My dog loves Ellyn and her family. They hang out on the couch, walk, and play. An accomplished photographer, Ellyn sends frame worthy photos. In those, it's clear that my dog's having laugh-out-loud fun. I highly recommend booking with Ellyn. It's stress and guilt free.
