It was my first time doing pet boarding, and to be honest was quite nervous about how it would go. Although the location was quite far from her place, if i have to choose someone to take care of my pet again i definitely will still go to her😅 here’s why:
Raine was super prompt in her replies (thank goodness as i really needed to find one urgently). Thank you 😭
It’s such a blessing to have her take care of my pet, as she sends pictures, videos of my puppy very frequently which makes me feel at ease as well 🥹
Also, when my puppy has a few accidents (peeing at the wrong places 😆, she still is very patient with him & me as well, which i am really grateful for.
Thanks to her, my puppy got to socialise with a few other dogs under her care as well, which i am really glad! Her place is really clean and huge as well, so they were able to run around! 😆
Lastly, you can really tell that she really loves and cares for pets just by meeting and chatting with her.
I usually don’t give reviews, but for this I think she really exceeded my expectations so…if you want to go on holiday but yet feel at ease that your dog not only is taken care of but happy as well, book her! :)
Thank you so much for taking care of Baby and I’ll surely see you again!

My Lucas, who is a senior dog, recently stayed with Sandra, and the experience was nothing short of amazing.
From the moment we met Sandra, it was clear how much she genuinely cares for animals. She took the time to understand Lucas's needs, his routine, and any special requirements due to his age. Her home is warm, welcoming, and perfectly set up for dogs of all ages, with plenty of cozy spots for older pups to relax.
What truly sets Sandra apart is her dedication to keeping pet parents updated. Throughout Lucas's stay, she sent daily photos and videos. It was such a relief to see him so well cared for. I also appreciated how Sandra took the time to update me on his eating habits, energy levels, and any little moments of joy he had during his stay
If you're looking for a dog boarder who treats your furry family member like their own, Sandra is the one. She’s not just a dog sitter; she’s a true dog lover who goes the extra mile. Thank you, Sandra, for taking such wonderful care of Lucas.
