Eleanor was fantastic! She was very responsive in our conversations and the dogs absolutely loved her. Nilla can be a bit shy, but it took no time for her to warm up to Eleanor. She took lots of photos and detailed activities during her check in. I will definitely use Eleanors services again and would easily recommend her to a friend!

Eleanor Denton has been a pet owner for many years. When visiting her home, her pets are always welcoming and well behaved. You can tell they are well loved. Eleanor has taken care of our dogs when we've been gone and they always came home healthy and happy. She works with her older dog in the Crisis Canine program and is bringing up her puppy to do service work, too. When needing pet care, you won't do better than Eleanor!

There is no one that I trust with my dogs more than Eleanor. They love her so much! It's such a relief to have finally found someone that I feel 100% comfortable leaving them with (I am picky). Eleanor is super professional while also being warm and friendly. She has tons of experience working with dogs so they feel calm and attentive around her. She engages with them in a very caring manner, and, when I have asked, she has given me a lot of good tips to help train them. I give her my highest recommendation!

Eleanor is a genuine person. Her work with her two dogs, Bear and Nika has been remarkable. I highly recommend E. As a dog lover!
