Our dog had a great time. We appreciated having someone who could watch him while we were out of town.

Donna was perfect for our senior dogs. Her house had ramps which helped with our oldest dog who has issues with stairs. She is very experienced with senior dogs, but also dogs in general and how to care best for them. We set up a meet and greet, which I highly recommend. One of our dogs is very anxious and timid but after seeing how he responded to her home I felt very comfortable with leaving him there. We have never boarded our dogs before but I felt very confident leaving them in Donna’s care.

Absolutely outstanding service above and beyond. Was traveling and needed last minute puppy sitter. She graciously agreed to help me out on extremely short notice. She has the sweetest little doggies of her own which kept my puppy company 💕 even though he had to stay in kennel (my requirement) he could still see and interact with them. Can not express enough how accommodating she was. Wonderful Doggy Mom. My puppy loved her immediately. Highly recommend and will Absolutely be using her again if ever needed. Awesome experience 10 stars !!!!!!!
