2. Valerie C.
“Romeo had such a great time at his sleepover with Valerie’s pups. We felt really assured after our meet & greet that Romeo will be well taken care of. Valerie sent daily photo updates while we were away for Christmas. On top of that, she sent Romeo home with a surprise gift from Santa! Thank you for giving Romeo the best sleepover he’s had with your girls. I am sure he already misses them! We’ll be back for sure if another travel opportunity comes up.”

“Nash enjoyed his stay with Jennifer (Rover) in PCB/Calloway area. He was excited to see her every day. She had clear communication and allowed us to drop off later in the evening and pick up the next day for beach excursions.

Thank you Jennifer and we will see you next year for family weekend at Kaleo! The Reed's and Nashville.”
