Lori was very great with all communication. She had a great setup and our dog loved playing with her dog. She sent photos almost every day and it seemed like our dog didn’t want to leave when we came to pick him up🤣 Would highly recommend

We are so thrilled with Lori! Great updates. She’s so pleasant. And most importantly: we can tell how much Turtle loves her and her home! Our pup is our world and we will absolutely leave him with Lori in the future.

Lori is such an outstanding caregiver! I received daily updates and photos of the fun my dog had during his stay at her lovely home. She was very attentive to his peculiarities. It was so nice to feel comfortable about his well being while away during the holiday season.

We left my dog, Molly with Lori for a week over Christmas. Molly is 16 years old and deaf. We had never boarded Molly in the 13 years we have had her. We met Lori and her dog and visited her spacious back yard and cozy house. Molly did great! In fact, she acted ten years younger when we got her back! Lori did a wonderful job and was very communicative while she had Molly. We were very happy with her and will definitely go back when the need arises! Thank you, Lori!!!

Lori is the best! Our dog Scooby gets so excited every time we arrive at Lori's house. He loves the fenced yard, his walks & all the love he gets from Lori.
