“Although this review comes late I cannot say enough about the care my dog Bodhi received from Sharon. He's a small dog with a big attitude and obviously anxious about a lot of new people and big dogs. Sharon took the time to be one-on-one with him and they went for walks and she was so good to him. I can't say enough about the care my dog received. Ali”
