Our dog is very well taken care of-medications and separate play time required because shes not terribly easy going- and they understand and accommodate her. I feel great leaving our dog in their care.

After our home sitter canceled on us a week before our Florida trip, I called Currey's to look into boarding our sensitive, dog reactive pit mix who's never been kenneled. After accommodating the last-minute dates we needed, Jenny went out of her way for a meet and greet and put us at ease that he would be well cared for. Thus, we went ahead and kenneled Fletcher there for 10 days. We also met Pat when we dropped him off, and, again, he assured us that Fletcher would be well cared for. Well, within a couple of days, Fletcher was out in the yard socializing with the pack! In addition, Fletcher has been much less reactive to other dogs since! We have another visit coming up soon and have total trust that Fletcher will be well cared for again. Thank you Pat and Jenny at Currey's for a great first experience and look forward to many more! Bob and Stephanie Kleffman

Our pleasure and look forward to helping you in the future. Don't forget that Jennifer can help you this summer if you want to work on the issue in the real world.
