Add to that, lots of photos sent to us to put our minds more at ease while we were away. Her dog Moose got along really well with Samson too. I'd recommend her to anyone who wants TLC for their pup.”

She was great in terms of communication and following up with questions, and was thoughtful enough to provide grooming advice for him.

We really appreciated her feedback on how he held up during his stay with her and would definitely book again!”
