Retired couple who truly love dogs.

Pet care experience

I have loved dogs since childhood however as many children was not allowed to have a dog. As soon as I was gainfully employed I adopted my first fur baby, a miniature poodle who passed at age 14. While my children were growing up, we had a Chocolate Labrador Retriever and toy and miniature poodles who have since passed. Currently, my fur baby, is a toy poodle. My husband and I are now retired and want to do what we love, that is, care for pups.

Thelma is personable and provided excellent care for our senior citizen Shit Tzu. We are comfortable leaving Miles with her. She knows dogs and gave our pet personal attention. Thelma was interested in getting to know Miles whether he visited her home for the day or for an extended time. She gave our dog a home away from home while we enjoyed a worry-free vacation.

Thelma was responsive, responsible, kind and caring for our 2 little dogs. We had to cut our trip short due to bad weather and Thelma had them all ready for pick-up on very short notice. She also refunded the days we did not use which was unexpected and kind of her.
