Doggy Day Care in Acuff

“It was my first experience with Jenny and it was amazing. Ellie (my dog) had a great company and attention provided. She was fed according to instructions, I received photos and videos of how she was doing every 1-2 hours which is perfect. Jenny has a big home with gated backyard which is a great playground for dogs. I 100% recommend the dogsitter and will be happy to use the service again. Thank you!”

“Emily was able to help us out a few times when we moved to town and we didn’t want to leave our pup alone in a new house. She took him on several walks and even to the dog park, both which Farley loves to do. We really appreciate her taking him into her home and taking such good care of him.”
