We had a great experience leaving our Cavachon with Nicole. She sent updates and responded back quickly. We will definitely use her again!

Nicole was so kind and care to our fur baby Lexi. Lexi had a great time and was ready for bed the night we picked her up.

Ranger is a high energy dog and still a young pup at a year old but I felt comfortable having Nicole and her family watch him . I think he got a lot of attention and exercise Ranger was there for a three day stay.. Nicole communicated well when I contacted her and sent photos . I would rebook with her anytime

Charlie and Murphy had a great time at Nicole's house. Nicole was great to work with. She was quick to respond to messages and kept us updated on how "the boys" were doing. We would highly recommend Nicole!
