Reviews

Thank you for taking good care of our Bagel!

I am working out of town and Caterina has been a god send for letting me take my puppy with me during the week. She is tucked away in the country with lots of walks and interactions with other doggy friends, which my girl loves. Highly recommend!

Caterina was so accommodating when I had to leave town last minute for a trip. She took great care of my boy and sent lots of pictures and updates. Can’t recommend enough!
Caterina took the most amazing care of our beagle. She handled an emergency situation quickly and competently. I am so grateful to her for providing loving home-like care for Teddy.
