“Margarida and her family are true dog-lovers!! They welcomed my dog, Rio with great warmth and understanding. It was Margarida who suggested a ‘meet and greet’ before our first doggy-care session to ensure that her dog Eliot and Rio will get along well. This meeting was a great success and put us both at ease. During the doggy-care session, I not only received updates, pictures and videos; but also got a report card for Rio at the end of the day. Very impressive!! Already re-booked Rio for boarding.”

“Nikki was great! My pup Snoopy was upset I was dropping him off and Nicki reassured me that he settled down and was having fun and playing. She made sure he ate his food and took beautiful pictures as well. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!”

“Karly has been great and easy to work with. It was Hobey’s birthday and she made sure to take extra time to make sure he had a special day and I was very appreciative of that. The whole family was very pleasant to interact with and their home is warm and comfortable feeling. They have a nice backyard that I imagine Hobey likes to run around in. I used Karly a second time already and I can tell you Hobey was excited as we pulled up to her house so I know he is having a good experience. I hope to continue using Karly’s services in the future.”
