“Alex and Adam took great care of our 2 year old Poodle Mix named Cuddles. He is a home, lap dog, and Alex took utmost care, and kept Cuddles at ease and made him feel homely.

9. Lily U.
“Lily has been taking care of our fur baby for almost 10 years. She goes above and beyond. She makes my pup feel right at home by taking him as her own. She carefully studies his needs and quickly alerts you of any concerns she notices in your pup. She will often times send you pictures and videos of your pup playing or simply posing for the camera. Lily is very nurturing and only wants the best for your pup. She is full of knowledge regarding what the best training treats are (and why), what the best nutrition is and even knows about a homeopathic approach to your pup’s overall wellbeing. She is always willing to bathe him when asked, trim his nails and she does so without hesitation. I often worry that my pup may not want to come home after a visit to ‘Lily’s House’ because she makes my pup feel like he’s having a spa day! She has fully earned our trust with our fur baby and we would’t know what to do without her since we do need her services very often. My pup really looks forward to staying with her and we feel complete peace with him being looked out for by her. We HIGHLY recommend her.”
