Claudia has watched my pup, Brewski, a handful of times now and I have never had any issues! My dog always comes back in one piece! Always appreciative of Claudia’s quick response time as well if I ever want a little update in how things are going! Highly recommend!

I love Claudia!! She does so well with my boys. I have a lab & a pyrnees and they are always very well taken care of. She sends pictures/videos/updates! One of them even got a bit sick while staying with her (anxious caused upset tummy) and she was so so helpful. 10/10 recommend to anyone!!

Claudia has cared for my 5 yo Shih Tzu several times while I traveled for work and holidays. Last year she took care of him for more than a week during Thanksgiving. Each time she sends photos of him playing and snuggling with her children whom he adores. I feel so much more at ease knowing he’s in a warm loving home rather than a cold boarding facility.

Koda absolutely loves spending time at Claudia’s daycare! Claudia and her family treat him like one of their own, and it gives me so much peace of mind knowing he is in such loving hands. He gets plenty of snuggles, playtime, attention, and all the love he could possibly ask for! 🐾❤️ It’s clear that Claudia and her…

My little ol' man received better care than I could possibly have hoped for. Claudia was very responsive and transparent when I inquired during his stay. There is a very gentle family-home atmosphere in which older dogs can thrive while away from their owned humans, which is sorely missing in clinical boarding…

Claudia is dedicated, trustworthy, conscientious and willing to share her extensive canine knowledge. I don't think you could find a better care taker. If you are looking for a dog sitter, you can stop looking right now. Claudia is the Best of the Best!

Claudia is amazing!! Her and her family are great with my little puppies and I’ve been going to her for all my doggy daycare/boarding needs for months now!

Claudia is amazing! We boarded our puppy for the first time with her and we had full confidence that he was in amazing hands! He had such a fun time playing in the backyard. Claudia sent regular updates, pictures, and videos which were great to receive while we were away. Claudia is extremely communicative and…
