Connie and Ron took great care of our senior dog. She was nervous but they put her at ease--not easy. She's a dog who doesn't like to change her routine. Would definitely use again. Thank you!

I could not be more pleased. A fabulous couple and so clearly dog lovers. First of all, a meet and greet with a chance to chat and ask questions. A few things I requested they were pleased to accommodate. Wonderful!

Connie and Ron combine the best traits we looked for in a first-rate team to care for our 7 1/2 year old Westie. Their process built over 13 years, intelligence, and caring nature are unique. We appreciate that they are highly selective, and look forward to a long relationship.

Connie and Ron genuinely care about pet clients and their owners. The biggest struggle for me before our trip is to find the right house for Lulu. Connie and Ron had earned our trust since our meet and greet session. Connie took notes and she asked questions. Connie also sent us daily pictures and videos while we were away. Connie and Ron didn’t take it as transactional business relationship. We are incredibly lucky to find them.

Connie and Ron did a fantastic job caring for Pearl. They sent photos and videos, and responded to texts quickly.
