4.5

This was the 2nd time I left my lab with Briana and her family. They take such good care of him. I would recommend her if you need someone regularly to watch your dog while out of town.

Briana was great! she sent regular pictures of my dog.

Highly recommend, this was a great experience all the way around. Thank you very much !

I had high hopes. The initial meet and greet went well and her little dogs looked very happy. The stay was overnight for two nights, I did receive two updates on Saturday, one on Sunday, nothing on Monday (my pick up day) At about 3:15 pm I let her know I would be picking him up in about 30 minutes. I rang the bell and thought I heard her say (come in) so I opened the door, her little dogs were at the door but I didn’t see my Finn. I wasn’t comfortable going in so I shut the door and waited outside, she brought Finn to the door and I could hear him panting before she opened the door. Finn was very excited to see me and I thought that was all it was but he was panting heavily for the next twenty to thirty minutes. We got home and settled and he finally stopped panting. Once he started moving around again, he was definitely favoring a front paw and limping. I asked her about the limping and time outside and she said she hadn’t noticed and that he was only outside for potty breaks, never longer than 30 minutes. But the strangest thing was later when I realized Finn hadn’t gone outside since we were home. I opened the back door and Finn stood way back and did not want to go outside, at all. I’ve never seen him reluctant to go outside like that before. I did get him outside, he was able to limp out into the yard and he did need to relieve himself, but strangely seemed afraid to go outside. It’s almost like he was left outside for a long time, hurt his paw scratching to get back in, and was reluctant to go outside even back at home, it was so much. The next morning he was still limping but no longer reluctant to go outside. He had a vet appointment anyway so his paw was looked at, it seems a toe is irritated but nothing seems broken. That’s what I know. I will not be rebooking with her.

Great communication and pics

Briana was great! She took care of our mini aussie for a week, while we were on vacation. She displayed great coordination, was friendly and welcoming, has a great setup for pups, and kept us posted on how Harper while we were gone. I definitely recommend her to others.
