“Highly recommend - we loved everything about Jackie & Lambert! Their pupdates were awesome, I really felt like I was a part of all the fun they had with my dog. Jackie & Lambert are such warm, friendly and loving people - I was instantly at ease with them and my dog Psyche (named for the Greek Goddess of the Soul) felt at home right away. Psyche (and I!) will look forward to booking with them again for our next trip!”
“We all loved our stag with Melissa and Roy! Our two pumps stayed with them for a longer period of time and I'm pretty sure they didn't want to come home. They received lots of love, attention, and exercise, while we received photos/updates and confirmation that we had made a great choice leaving them in the great hands of Melissa & Roy! Thanks again for a great stay - we will be back!!”

“This was our first experience leaving our 5 and 7 month old puppies so needless to say, we were nervous!!! Pets are family members for us! But the minute I met Tammy, I knew things were going to be ok...she was calm, reassuring, obviously a dog lover! Our girls had a blast at her house... I received pictures almost daily of them and we communicated all the time. She bathed them, provided games/toys and socialization for them and continued care for one of the dogs that had a hotspot we had just started treating. When, we picked them up, they were healthy and happy! I told Tammy now she's part if our family too!!!? this was a great experience and I highly recommend Tammy!”
