February 17, 2018 - "Absolutely the BEST "home away from home" for my boys, Bueller and Rufus! They absolutely love staying with Russ, (start to get excited about 5 blocks away before drop off). Russ truly takes the time to know the dogs' personalities, what they like and what they don't. It is so much "peace of mind" for me to know the boys are in great care with Russ while I am traveling."

W e have a very sensitive dog, Sage a Bernese Mountain dog , who doesn't like strangers, but for her Russ is family. We always hate leaving but have the absolute confidence in Russ and the care he gives. Actually, when we drop her off she takes off with him and doesn't even turn around. To us that is the best recommendation that can be given. We have referred many people to him without hesitation. If you are lucky enough to have your dog stay with Russ you will not be sorry."

She didn't even want to leave on day two!! There's a great big yard for the dogs for playtime and she was totally worn out at the end of the day. Russ was great with communication, as well. I hope I find myself back in this cute town and I'll definitely be taking Meiko back to the HH when I do! Thank you!"
