“Roy is great! His yard and home are arranged to accommodate dogs safely. He is understanding and easy to contact and Mosby comes back from his stays relaxed and his usual self. We’re so grateful for him! We know we can leave Mosby free of worry.”
2. Natalia B.
“Je recommande vivement Natália pour s’occuper des chiens. Elle a été très attentionnée, m’envoyant des messages et des photos régulièrement, ce qui m’a vraiment rassuré. Elle a pris grand soin de ma chienne et je suis très satisfeito de son travail. La prochaine fois que j’aurai besoin, je lui confierai ma chienne sans hésiter, si elle est disponible.”

“Super belle expérience de gardiennage avec Emma. Nous avions 100% confiance que notre pitou était entre bonnes mains :) L'organisation était simple et facile et Emma a été très attentionnée aux besoins de notre Croquette. Merci encore!”
9. Ana S.
“My daughter has always been passionate about animals, ever since she was a child. Now, I have the responsibility of taking care of her four-legged children here in Brazil, and I can say she prepared me very well for it. All her dogs are extremely well cared for and loved. When she had to go to Canada, she left everything organized, with every detail thought out for their well-being. She calls me often to check how they’re doing, if they’re happy and healthy. Her care and love for these animals is truly admirable.”
