I could tell from Angelina's videos that Phoebe had an awesome boarding experience. She looked so relaxed & was obviously very comfortable during her stay. Thank you, Steve & Angelina for taking such great care of her.

Kimberly was absolutely awesome and I highly recommend her to anybody looking for an all around great sitter who will treat your furry loved one like their own!! She sent multiple pictures and videos as well as updates each day that Puck was with her. She treated Puck like family from the moment I dropped him off until I picked him up and I could enjoy my vacation knowing he was so well taken care of. Puck got along well with her dog Bailey and definitely wasn t ready to leave. I will definitely be using Kimberly again to watch Puck and 100% provide my highest recommendation!

Lyn is amazing. She took awesome care of Fluffy in her home. She truly loves dogs and makes them feel loved. She is the best.

Baldwin could not have been placed in better hands. Blynn was super communicative, with energy to match Baldwin's zest for adventure all while studying for really important exams. We'd definitely trust him again to look after our pup.

Your dog is the luckiest animal when they get taken care of by Lyn. She's a true animal lover and I felt so relieved knowing our little pup was in good hands. Horatio says Lyn is the best!
