David took good care of Kona and sent us pics. He was also very responsive. Will use him again!

David generously accepted my dog on relatively short notice for an extended stay of more than 2wks. He shared welcomed and reassuring updates throughout her stay. I will absolutely look to him in the future for dog care and would recommend him to others. I have a relatively attention hungry Australian Shepherd who appears to have had a delightful stay. Thanks David!
