Pet care experience

Minnie needs some new friends!

We have been loving pet owners for over 30 years, and we have been taking care of friends pets for many years as well. We also have past experience working with a service dog training program before we retired and relocated to Florida. After the recent loss of Minnie's companion of the last 14 years, we are looking to bring other dogs in to provide her with some playtime.

Our experience with Chris was above and beyond our expectations. We received pictures and videos of Remi and he looked so happy and obviously well cared for. It was a great anxiety eraser for us as we haven’t left Remi since the weekend we brought him home, and he had a rough start to life, so we had lots of anxieties as to how he would be. We’ll definitely book with Chris again!

I had such a wonderful experience leaving my two puppies in their care! They took such great care of them and kept me updated throughout their stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. I especially loved knowing that they let my puppies sleep with them, so they were never alone and felt comfortable and safe. 🐶❤️ I could tell my puppies were very well loved and cared for. I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in such good hands. I highly recommend them and would definitely trust them with my puppies again! Thank you so much for taking such great care of my babies! 🥰🐾

Joann and Chris took such good care our boys while we were out of the country for 2 weeks. We were nervous as we had never had to leave our boys with anyone outside of family before. Joann and Chris made us comfortable with the meet and greet and explained how they did things. Their home is very well set up for dogs of all kinds. We could tell they take it seriously when it comes to their care and watch of our dogs. We got photos and updates everyday. We loved that Joann and Chris treated our puppies as if they were their own it made it more comforting while we were gone to know they were getting the best possible care and love. They were spoiled and received lots of cuddles. Thank you Chris and Joann, we definitely plan to book with them again next time we go out of town😁

They are amazing. Yes......Chris really is the dog whisperer. My dog doesn't even take to men well and loved him. Both he and his wife are so caring. I felt great about leaving my furbaby with them.
