Victoria was absolutely amazing. Before boarding, she was open to meeting us, so our pup would know her beforehand. She sent plenty of updates and photos during our pup's stay which made us feel super at ease. Very communicative! Overall, would definitely recommend her to any dog parents! (:

Ryan was so great with my energetic dog and was super flexible with us booking last-minute. Our dog had a great time with Luna and Ryan even showed us some adorable pictures of the two of them together. Definitely would recommend!!

Tien-Tien is great with my small dog Beau! I can tell that she loves animals and always treats Beau like he’s her own. I’ve gone on several trips out of town and left my dog in her care and it’s been fabulous every time!

Colin was a fantastic sitter for our Aussie for a week while we were on vacation. He provided daily updates about our pup's day with plenty of photos and was extremely willing to tailor his care for her around the routine she keeps at home with us. His two dogs are extremely sweet, gentle, and welcoming for new dogs to join their pack; it made me happy to know our pup was so thoughtfully cared for while we were gone!

We got the sense that Phi really balances the line successfully between business and care when it comes to taking care of pets. He provided some great updates, and I never worried about our dog while we were away since I had a lot of confidence that Phi is super responsible and attentive.

Lydia took great care of our puppy over a long weekend! We got frequent updates and pictures of their adventures, and our dog loved her pup as well. We felt confident that our dog was in good hands and would definitely leave her with Lydia again.

My beagle mix Casey had the best time staying with Jo!! I know this because Jo sent me daily photo updates of long walks with Casey, playing in the dog park, playing with toys at home, and cuddling on the couch! It was such a relief to know my dog was having a great time with someone responsible and a huge dog lover! Highly recommend!

Matias was super responsive and took her on many walks. I think she enjoyed her time there, and when I picked her up, she was clearly comfortable in his home and with him. Matias was very flexible with drop off and pick up times, and I appreciated that he offered to have a meet and greet before her stay.

Harry had the best time with Michelle! She sent tons of pictures and kept me up to date on how he was doing (he made himself right at home). He got plenty of walks and was fed and tired when we picked him up.

Sarah was incredible. A total professional with a clear natural way with dogs - Zazu absolutely loved her. I had so much confidence that Zazu was treated like a little prince and so, so well taken care of. Amazing communication over the time I was away too, I'd recommend her to anyone. I'll most certainly be requesting Sarah's services again!

Kayla took absolutely amazing care of our girl Libby. She was constantly updating us with pictures. She also got along great with Kayla’s dog summer. She took them on walks and play time and even let Libby sleep in bed (which is huge for her). We will absolutely be repeat customers!

Dusty had a great time with Julie, and she was terrific. Warm and caring, really great communication throughout Dusty’s stay, which is always much appreciated. Flexible and understanding on a traffic delay I had coming to get her. Would definitely have Dusty stay again and highly recommend to anyone else looking for quality care for your pup!

Kat has been an absolute gem with our Great Dane, Duke. Her dedication and love towards animals shine through in her care. Duke was not just taken care of; he was treated like a member of Kat’s family, always excited to see her and a bit sad to leave. Kat’s ability to make any pet feel at home is remarkable. I wholeheartedly recommend her as a responsible and loving pet caregiver.
