“We cannot recommend John and Joanna highly enough! They took wonderful care of our two dachshunds and went above and beyond in every way. Their communication was outstanding, we received regular updates and fun photos that reassured us our pups were happy and in great hands while we were away. John and Joanna’s attentiveness and compassion truly stood out, especially during a thunderstorm. Knowing our pups are afraid of thunder, they took the time to check in on them and offer extra cuddles, which meant the world to us. They also made sure our dog received his daily skin treatments, which we deeply appreciated. John and Joanna set the standard for what pet care should look like. Warm, responsive, and truly dedicated.”


“Chaoran was great. She took good care of Elsa and kept me informed about how she was doing. When I went to pick her up, Elsa seemed a bit conflicted as to whether she would prefer to stay there or come home with me.😂 I took that as a good sign.”


“Priscilla was amazing to my pup, Bishop. She sent videos and photos. Updated me on his day. Even gave me a treat to take home. I love her set up for the dogs they have an area that's big enough and not too cramped. Would recommend her and definitely will be booking again!”


“I'm so glad Aimee agreed to watch our girl dog Maxine this weekend on fairly short notice. Aimee was calm and competent and so gentle towards Maxine. Aimee was so easy to work with and sent lots of pictures and updates. I felt so much better knowing that Maxine was in safe, caring hands. Thank you so much for taking care of our furry family member!”


“This was the 1st time we have boarded our pet, Cricket, the spoiled dog. Ms Rebeca took great care of our Cricket. We fully appriciated the effort she made sure we recieved photos and daily updates on how Cricket was doing. We are quite happy to have found a great home away from home for Cricket during our family vacation. Thank you so very much. The Shanks family”


“Stephen was so great to work with.! He took care of my dog as if she was part of his family. He is very responsive and professional. He had a meet and greet with us first to make sure my dog would be comfortable with them and get her acclimated to the environment. My dog had such a wonderful time getting all the attention and care she needed ! I highly recommend working with Stephen ! Thank you again so much!”

“Darnell and his family are truly lovely people who cared for our dog as if she were their own. We loved the wonderful daily updates with photos. If we could give more than 5 stars, we would!”


“Our 2 Labradoodles, Wilson and Olive, had a blast on their doggie vacation at Heather's. Heather is a great pack leader and both pooches had smiles on their faces in the photos she sent us while we were away for 2 weeks. They didn't just have a place to stay but a place where they were cared for, exercised and loved. They came home tired and with better manners thanks to Heather's training and attention. We will happily leave our pups with Heather again for our next vacation.”

“My pup’s stay with Cindy was absolutely wonderful! Cindy was communicative, flexible, sent frequent updates and pictures, AND provided special care for my special needs girl. She and her husband are kind, friendly people who clearly love dogs. I can’t thank them enough and would recommend to anybody!”



“Caroline and her family took great care of our dog. She provided updates and pictures, letting us know how it went along the way and reassuring us that all was well. This was our first stay and we would have Seneca stay over again.”
