1. Lawrencia C.
“Lawrencia and her husband were awesome! Took great care of our huge Newfie, Chopper, on veryyy short notice. He had a ton of fun with their sweet dog, as well as other dogs they were sitting. No problems at all. Lawrencia was super communicative and sent tons of photos. Super happy with the boarding experience and will definitely be contacting them in the future:)”
2. Jordan R.
“There is not a person I would trust more to take care of my fur babies than Jordan. She loves and cares for them like they are her own children and goes above and beyond to make sure their needs are met. I have had Jordan take care of all of our dogs over the 14+ years I have known her and every single one of them has loved her. We even had one fur baby that knew her as “Auntie Jordan” and would get so excited at the mention of her name. So rest assured that your dog will be in the most caring hands and safe, loving environment if they are lucky enough to hang out with Jordan!”

“Jacob and his wife helped provide a stress free time while I was out of town. Both of them were extremely friendly, helpful, and reassuring. They sent plenty of pictures and updates while I was gone, great communication. Leeroy was in a great mood when I picked him up. I will totally be using Jacob and his wife again in the future.”
9. Hallie S.
“Hallie was awesome with our dog for a long weekend trip. She has a nice clean home with a fenced in yard. We felt really comfortable the whole time and did not worry about Foss at all. He did great with her pups and it’s obvious she cares so much about our dog’s well-being which is exactly what we want when leaving our dog with someone. She was quick to respond to all of our messages, too.”
10. Tess W.
“Tess was fantastic!!!!! We had recently adopted a traumatized stray bully-mix and we were very nervous to leave her and attend a family members wedding. Our dog, Honey, is normally afraid of strangers but was quite comfortable with Tess immediately. Tess was very knowledgeable about behavioral issues and trauma. She put us at ease right away. We fully expected to have to cut the night short and pick our girl up early, but we were able to fully enjoy and celebrate the night away! Tess kept us informed throughout and gave our anxious girl the space and extra care she needed. We will absolutely request Tess again whenever we are in town!!!”
