Pet care experience

Experienced and fun dog lover

I've had great success over the last 17 years through 3 dogs of our own and training friends' dogs. It is essential to lay out boundaries and discipline, balanced with affection and rewards for dogs. My mentor for training my dogs was Cesar Milan. We include light training through positive rinforcement methods for most dogs in boarding...just a little value-added for the furry friends we love. My wife and 2 girls also shower the dogs with affection and play daily. Look forward to caring for your loved pet!

My dogs loved their stay. They got so much love and attention from the family I think they would have been happy to stay longer. They are looking forward to their next stay there! Communication was stellar and we got lots of pictures.

We really appreciate all the love and care that our little guy received while we were away! Everyday we received updates about how he was doing. We enjoyed our vacation because we were confident that our furry family member who had to stay behind was getting so much love. We could see in the pictures that he was happy and fit right.
