Luna and Chuck had a great time with Kellie and her furry friends! She sent me pictures of them having fun everyday, sent updates of how things were going, and even worked with my puppy to stop his bad habit of jumping on people. I could tell she was attentive to their needs and their individual quirks. She has a true passion for animals, that’s clear! I will definitely bring my pups back to her!
