1. Benjamin N.
“Jonathan & his helpers were wonderful. They were able to accommodate my fur babies when I needed help for a last minute work trip. Overall attentive, sweet to my shy little guy, and gentle to my old lady. Would trust them with my fur babies again!”
2. April W.
“Beyond GRATEFUL to have found April! From the first moment I reached out, April has provided excellent communication, prompt response time and exceptional friendliness. We were able to schedule a time to have a meet and greet with my two dogs before our boarding reservation. My two usually skittish little guys warmed right up to her. April’s home was a perfect fit for my two fur babies. April’s home is cozy, very dog friendly and conveniently located near my house. She touched base prior to our stay to update and needs or concerns we had. We have already booked our next stay!! April is phenomenal!!!”

“Veronica is AMAZING!! Was very worried leaving my 6 month old Basenji, Braxton, as it was our first time leaving him and he’s a very energetic puppy. He LOVED it!! He made lots of new friends and enjoyed every second of it. Will definitely continue to use Veronica in the future.”

6. Cindy M.
“I'm a repeat client of hers and still very satisfied with how their family takes care of my dog. Cindy even offered to give Mishka some chicken to mix with her kibble because she wasn't eating her food. Such a nice gesture! Thanks for going above and beyond :)”

16. Guojin Q.
“Having our Frenchie stay with Guojin and his wife was fantastic! We had a week long trip abroad and me being the helicopter mom that I am, really loved receiving sooo many pictures and updates throughout the day of our sweet girl. Our pup looked very happy and seems to even miss her new found friends! If we ever need a sitter we really hope to be able to book Guojin and his wife again!! (:”
17. JR C.
“Boarded Buddy for five days while we went on a trip. JR runs a tight ship with his pups as they come and go, providing pack leadership and behavioral guidelines so that the pups stay safe and happy! Buddy loved it and came home happy and tired. Will definitely board with JR again!”
18. Susan C.
“On very short notice, Susan agreed to take our two dogs for the weekend. From the time we first met her to drop off the dogs to the time we picked them up, it was clear they were in very good hands. They had a wonderful time and we definitely be using her again soon!”

“It was my first time leaving my dog with someone I didn’t know. Mae certainly helped me overcome the fear. From the beginning to the end, she was professional and kind; the best part was her communication. She sent me many updates with pictures throughout the entire service period. My dog seemed comfortable in the pictures as well. I will be her returned customer.”
