Kerri was fantastic and our dogs fit right in from the start under her care. We knew they were in good hands and could enjoy vacation worry free. Regular updates/pics were sent which made things even better! Great experience!

Kerri took amazing care of my puppy. This was the first time leaving her so I was a little nervous. She put me right at ease and sent videos and photos keeping me updated with how she was doing.

I work from home, so I am home most of the day. The dogs will spend the day playing inside and outside, taking naps, sunbathing, playing with toys, and chewing on bones.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard, two other personal dogs, usually 1 foster dog, two cats, and two kids. For everyone's safety, all dogs are usually crated when I'm not home but if they would prefer to stay out of crate, that is fine too.

Pets

A typical day

Our cherished visitors will play outside and inside with our playful dogs, throughout the day, if that's their thing. If they aren't very playful, they can explore the yard, sunbathe chew on bones, get lots of love!
