Kim provides the best care! Loved seeing pictures and videos to keep us updated. Abby seemed so happy there...I was worried she might not want to leave! Happy to give a 5 star rating.

Kim did a great job taking care of my pet. I highly recommend her. I didn’t need to worry for one second that my pet was being well cared for.

Kim was great and so caring for my two boys. She always kept me posted with pictures and things they did throughout the day. I would definitely go back to her if and when we’re out of town!
