I'm sorry to say I don't trust Richard and don't recommend leaving your dog with him. When I picked up my dog, she insisted on peeing on his neighbor's lawn immediately though he told me she shouldn't pee there -- he still had her leash -- as if she hadn't been let out for 8 hours. She pooped as soon as she got in my backyard and she avoids that if at all possible. It looked as if she hadn't been let out to poop for 8 hours too. She drank 4 big bowls of water when she got home. Most people send pictures of my dog playing. When asked, Richard sent one picture of her sitting. He said he was taking her on adventures all day so I couldn't pick her up earlier than 5 though the plan was 3 and when I asked what they did, he said they went to Brooks and Tractor Supply. I could have left her at home and had a dog walker come and walk her 3 times and had a better experience and paid less.

Richard was amazing with our girls! All three were super excited to meet him, and they loved their adventure with him last weekend- he even took them to see the LL Bean boot! Highly recommend :)

Lila is an old dog who is too anxious in kennels now but she was very happy spending 4 days with Richard. He is very good with dogs and a kind person. .

We had such a wonderful experience! From the very beginning, they were kind, professional, communicative, and clearly passionate about caring for dogs. I felt completely comfortable knowing my dog was in such great hands. They kept me updated throughout the stay and treated my dog like their own. It was such a relief knowing my pup was happy, safe, and well cared for. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pets. We will definitely be booking with them again! 🐾❤️
