My experience with Troy has been wonderful. Troy & his family have been a wonderful host for Archie. I could not have asked for any better arragements. I am listing my experiences of hosting Archie at their house (before the stay, during the stay and after the stay). Here are some of the highlights of Archie's stay: - Troy and his wife, along with 3 kids and their pet (Leo - a Bichon - think ) live in a house with a large private yard, away from traffic. They also take Leo out for walks and around the same time they used to take archie out. - Archie, although a very fussy one around other dogs - it seems like he loved Leo and they got along very well. - Troy and his wife were very detail oriented and went over the entire plan for Archie's stay - right from setting up the meet-n-greet, to feeding schedule, walking schedule, history of any complications, local veterinarian's # (just in case something happens etc) - Troy and his wife were also very strict in terms of boarding only one dog at a time - i got lucky this time. This gives me comfort that Archie is getting a very personal treatment (just like he gets at home) - Troy and his wife were also very accommodating. I had to change my meeting schedule from time to time and they were always understanding and very accommodating. This helped out a lot. - During the stay, i received daily updates, pictures of Archie's stay, walk etc., - so i never had to worry about how my baby was doing. That tells me that Troy and his family are very caring people and they understand the nuances of dog-ownership. I could go on and on about how great Troy and his family were but i guess this paints the picture. If i were to use their services again - i would definitely do it and i am glad i was able to find them.
