Reilly, my Westie, has gone to Patty's for about 3 years now when mom is on vacation. He has a great memory and never hesitates to just walk right in without a look back. That tells me that he is very comfortable there when I am gone. He won't do that unless it is someplace he wants to be. Yes, Patty keeps a strict schedule for appointments, pick-ups and drop-offs but I personally appreciate that. She lives in a nice neighborhood and when she knows someone is coming she will isolated the other dogs to cut down on barking and exciting all the other dogs. I think the care and personal attention the dogs receive is excellent...my dogs attitude tells me that! If Patty was full and could not take Reilly I probably would reschedule a vacation! I just couldn't consider leaving him anywhere else. Reilly is on vacation when I am on vacation!
