11. Nicole K.
“Nicole loves dogs more than anyone else in my life. She cares so deeply about her own dog, and I've seen that transfer to every other animal she comes in contact with. She's incredibly knowledgeable about the food she gives her dog, the activities she does with her dog for mental stimulation and physical well-being. Any animal is in incredible good and capable hands with Nicole. I guarantee it”

20. Deirdre O.
About: I have 2 dogs and 3 cats and 7 adults that live with me. I can only take one dog boarding at a time. I walk down at Onondaga Lake Park 2 times a day so your fur baby will have plenty of exercise, and I will send you pictures to illustrate just how much fun we are having throughout our stay! I am currently working part time so will have plenty of time with your dog. I have 2 dogs and 3 cats but my house has plenty of room. I do not have a fenced in yard but your dog will always be on a leash. I walk my dogs twice a day so they get plenty of exercise!
