Our puppy had a great daycare with Ilana. Played a lot so had a good sleep after the day.

Ilana is a sweetheart. Very good at controlling large dogs like Lola. We had a rough start, on our first introduction day care visit. Ilana had another big guest dog over, we did not get the heads up about that. Ilana's house is very small for 3 large dogs (she has an aussie, which we knew). Even though the dogs first met outside, the two dogs started barking and getting rough. Lola was clearly feeling a bit scared and overwhelmed. She was hiding behind us and making herself small, but wanting to play. Lola is young and big and clumsy, but very calm. Ilana's aussie, Nala, was barking at her and got a bit aggressive at first, but it all seemed to become way calmer after a while. Since then, Lola has spent a long weekend with Ilana and Nala. Ilana has been very attentive to her. She sent us many photos, took her on multiple walks, was concerned with her sleep as she was getting used to their place and Lola seems to have become good friends with Nala now. Ilana was very kind and forgiving when our flight got delayed for picking her up. I recommend her very much. I just suggest, that you make sure you schedule your dog's first visit alone with her and introduce the dogs in a calm manner. Aussie shepherds are energetic and can get territorial.
