Helpful, friendly, dependable - I can’t say enough good things. Thank you for ensuring I had a worry free time away from my darling kitty boys.

I dropped my dog off Friday morning they were up and waiting. I receive updates with pictures every day. Which was great because I was missing him. When I picked my dog Cody up he was happy looking. I knew he had been well taking care of!! I would highly recommend them to watch your dog. I will be using them again real soon!!

I absolutely love taking my pup to Lavina & Herbert weekly! Bentley is always well taken care of and she updates me on his entire day! I feel comfortable leaving him there and appreciate how reliable they are! 10/10 ❤️

Information Lavina & Herbert S. would like to know about your pet

I would think it’s very helpful to know if the pet has any special needs, elderly, takes medication, and/or not potty trained. That way I’ll know exactly how to care for the pets properly.

A typical day

Stimulation for the pets are very important, especially if the breed of the pets are known to be very energetic so I make sure to really enjoy nature with them, playing tons of games like catch/frisbee and going for walks.
