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.

Very pleased about the care Joann and Chris gave to our 2 little ones that stayed with them for 2 weeks. The house is very clean. We wanted a family-style environment for them when we were away from town, and I think we found that with them. The most important is our dogs Hanna and Rollie were happy.

I felt sooooo comfortable leaving my 2 babies. This was my first time ever and I got photos and updates everyday. I HIGHLY recommend them and will be using them again.

I was anxious to leave Molly with a "stranger" for the 1st time but I quickly learned she was staying with "family". Photos everyday with comments on how and what she was doing....she looked happy go lucky! I will ask them again to care for my baby girl without hesitation and highly recommend them.

We felt that Chris/Joanne were not listening to us when the dogs were dropped off. We did leave instructions in writing about feeding and medications as well as each dogs' personality. We did so enjoy getting texts with pictures of the dogs each day. We had visited their home earlier and it was definitely set up for dog sitting/boarding, with a fenced in yard, outdoor sitting area and minimal stairs.

Chris and Joanne we’re amazing with my 18-year-old Cupcake! A lot of people shy away from caring for an old girl, but I’m so happy I found Chris and Joanne! I can’t thank them enough for helping me feel at ease from the moment I met them. Their home is truly a pup home and the extras they put in place to ensure Cupcake was safe was over and above any expectations that I had. For this, I am truly grateful. ❤️🥰

It was my first experience with a boarder and it was amazing! Judge got to play with other dogs and was very comfortable with Chris! Chris even sent me photos of all the fun and relaxation Judge enjoyed!! I will definitely ask for Chris again.♥️
