Gretchen and her family were so wonderful to our dog Zeus! They made it easy to leave him for 5 days and they were accommodating to our travel schedule. Also she updated us with great pics and tid bits. Would definitely recommend and would book again in the future!

Gretchen is absolutely wonderful and has an ideal home for boarding with a lovely family and super sweet pup as well as a large fenced-in yard to sniff around and chase rabbits. She also took our dog Luna out for walks and to the local dog park. Luna was exhausted by the time she got home after our trip, and I could tell she had a great stay.

I'll just need to know if they have any special needs, if they are accustomed to other animals and if they have particular medical issues.
