Pet care experience

In order to create a safe environment for our smaller friends, I only accept dogs under 25lbs. I have been a preschool and kindergarten teacher most of my life. I bring the same love and care to the animals in my home, that I brought to the children in my class. I have had dogs all my life. I know how important they are to you. They are that important to me as well.

This was Daisy’s first time staying with Ron. You can tell he is great with animals and is very loving. His communication was top notch and sent pictures daily which helped put us at ease. Our dog had such a great time with him and his dogs, Lily and Cannoli. We will definitely come back for Ron’s exceptional care.
