“Karen was great from the start! Beginning with our meet and greet last week and then today during my 14 yo Maltese’s first doggy daycare day. I had my own separation anxiety today leaving my dog Bailey for the first time in 12 years! Karen was reassuring, cared about my senior dog’s special needs, and was sincere in her love of dogs. She took pics too! I appreciated her attentiveness and will be using her services again for an upcoming extended family vacation. I feel comfortable leaving Bailey in her care and a bonus was that he got along with her sweet dog Bella! 🐶🦴”
