Poppy seemed to have a lovely stay with Flavia. She sent me updates through the day of Poppy relaxing and hanging out with her doggy's. Poppy is normally shy, but she was happy there. She was giving Flavia lots of affection before leaving her home. Always a positive sign! ✨️

We are so so thankful to Laurie and her lovely daughter Alice for taking such good care of Cooper for the weekend. Laurie took cooper on a very last minute request after we were let down by another boarding service. Cooper warmed to Laurie and her daughter instantly and we cannot thank them enough for taking such good care of him after a particularly stressful event. Laurie sent alot of updates to reassure us Cooper was getting on well. Cooper came home very happy yesterday which is a sign he had a great time!! We will never be able to thank them enough. We would highly recommend Laurie and her lovely daughter to other dog owners ⭐️
