Pet care experience

Dog lover with time to care

I have rescued many dogs in my life, retraining them to live safer and more confident lives. I enjoy spending time outdoors exploring with my four legged family. I also know the struggle of finding good boarding that ensures more time being active than crate time.

Cocoa got lots of walks in, which I know she loves. Didn't get too much information about the week, but Cocoa came back happy and tired which is perfect.

Michael did a fantastic job of taking care of our dog Roxy. He was attentive and provided daily photos of the dog walks.
