“When we picked him up, Amelia showed me photos and videos of him playing and having fun with some of the other dogs. I can tell he had really enjoyed it. He wasn’t even bothered that I’d come to get him - I think he wanted to stay!”
“Our dogs have been many times for boarding and daycare and each time they leap out of the car and don't look back - and that is a recommendation in itself!”
“My dog loves it here! He has been coming since a puppy and gets excited every time he arrives! All staff are so friendly and welcoming and I feel so happy leaving my boy in their safe hands.”
“The field has clean water, a barn for shelter, private parking and a variety of different agility equipment. The owners are always incredibly polite and helpful and always happy to answer any questions or help me out.”
