“Corinne took great care of our Remy. I looked forward to the updates and pictures she sent. It really helped be at ease seeing how much fun our girl was having at her house playing and interacting with the other dogs. I think Remy enjoyed her vacation more than we did ours lol. We will DEFINITELY use Corinne again.”
