“Our dog has never stayed with anyone other than family or friends before and I was quite nervous about leaving him with someone I didn’t know. That is until I met Nancy. From the very start of our meet and greet, I knew that she and her husband would treat Duffy as their very own. They are genuine dog people! She sent us many pictures of him every day and it was obvious that he enjoyed his time with them and their dogs. I was able to enjoy my time away without a single worry!”
“Karisa was fantastic! Our dog is older (15) and can get a little nervous, so a caring, home environment is what we were looking for. There was such peace of mind leaving our pet with Karisa. She even sent pictures so we could see how cozy Tilly was in their home and she was sent home with a “goodie bag” of homemade doggie treats! We highly recommend!!!”
