“As always Linda took excellent care of my Dolly. Both Linda and her husband are genuinely caring animal lovers and it shows in how much my g German Shepherd loves them! GSD's are very protective and close with their owners and it is a comfort knowing she is in good hands and content in their care. I love all the photos Linda sends me of Dolly's stay with her, especially the ones where she's giving them kisses! Thank you Linda for everything! You are the best!”
“Sarah was welcoming, communicative, and a great photographer 😂. Took some high quality photos of my dog, which was nice. This was the longest time my dog and me spent apart. She made the experience a whole lot less worrisome. I'll definitely recommend her services and will definitely her services again.”

Thank you again Katie .I know who I will be calling the next time I need help with Lexi again .”

About: I've had pets in my life since I was young. I've taken care of dogs, cats, wolves,snakes and horses. Dogs and cats from youth to end of life care. Animals seem to like and trust me, so much so that my wife calls me the animal whisperer. :) I'm retired and am available every day of the week unless I'm out of town visiting relatives in North Carolina. I do go to the gym several times per week but I'm not gone over an hour each time. I have plenty of places to take pets for walks and there are dog parks close by as well. If your pet requires being crated at night etc that's no problem.
“Will most definitely be using her again ! She was amazing and she genuinely cares and spoiles your dog ! She sent pictures to keep you updated during the stay. My dog had a really nice vacation visiting Paola.”
“We are retired so we travel a lot. We have never boarded our dogs with a more competent dog sitter. Our dogs actually leep out of the car to get to her when we drive in the driveway. Our dogs are English Bulldog Champions and one is intact, but Peggy manages his care profesionally--even on Thanksgiving day. As a vet technician she was also able to administer medication to our older dog. She lives on a farm so there is a lot of area for dogs to run off leash. They don't sleep in a kennel building, they sleep in her house! She is a lovely person with a good heart.”
