Wip loves staying with Kristie; I have to bribe him with treats to go back home with me. She helped me out with adjusting pickup and drop of times.

Kristie was fantastic! Great communication, My pup was pampered and spoiled rotten. Will use her again.

Kristie was PHENOMENAL!! She really understood our dogs and loved on them even better than we do at home. Snickers was almost sad to be home after playing with Kristie and her dog. Will DEFINITELY book with her again! She even sent us a video of the dogs playing in the backyard.

Kristie was so great with my Zena. My dog is normally anxious around new people, but Zena warmed up to her quickly which tells me she has a golden soul. Kristie sent me updates with pictures throughout her stay which helped ease my own anxiety. I highly recommend :)
