“My wife had to take an emergency trip and Nikki was super helpful! Didn’t want to have to worry about my dogs while at work and certainly didnt have to! Will definitely request her again in the future!”
“Jade was a life saver. When we were stuck out of town I could breathe easier knowing she was able to take care of my fur baby. I would gladly ask her to take care of Angus in the future.”
“Brittany was a true professional. Our Cane Corso is not socialized intentionally and we asked Brittany if she could come the day before for an introduction. Our Corso definitely was on guard but after a while during the visit it was all good. The important fact is that Brittany knew exactly what to do to help us with the introduction and that show’s experience and professionalism. I would definitely seek her support for all our future needs.”
