Alissa, was easy to coordinate with. Bailey seemed comfortable immediately with her. Her own pups seemed to play well with Bailey in the fenced in backyard.

Our pups were treated just like family. So grateful to found a wonderful place for our Great Danes. Knowing she knows the bread was a great peace of mind.

Alissa is a true dog lover! Stella had a great time and came home with a new scarf and a big smile!

I have had Alissa watch my dog twice and would definitely use her again! My dog is shy with new people and he took to her right away. Great review from my dog too!! I feel my dog is well cared for and loved. Alissa responds quickly with booking and any questions or concerns.

We had to pick up our pups earlier than expected due to a snow storm coming through, but for the time that Alissa had them they loved it! Alissa was great with communication and very quick to respond. If we ever come through the area again we will definitely rebook!

Please let us know about any special needs, medications, or any other concerns you may have. I also offer pick up for pups that tend to be more anxious about mom or dad leaving them. The less stress on your pup makes for a much better experience and stay!
