We just left our newly adopted, very clingy and skittish, dog with Jessica for a 6 night stay. We picked Spa de Paw (even though it was a bit out of the way) because of the wonderful reviews and the informative website; as a bonus, her rates are quite reasonable for the service she provides. This was our first time leaving her with anyone and we were quite anxious about the experience. Jessica put us at ease with her obvious love & knowledge of dogs & her well-planned daycare schedule, that ensured a busy & tiring day. A few hours after we dropped her off, Jessica called with an update & she continued to update us almost daily. She screens the dogs carefully to prevent out any bullies or dangerous dogs, but there is still a good variety of temperments--so your dog learns to socialize. She continues basic training & will accomodate your requests for feeding schedules, etc... so your dog will not forget your house rules while away. When we picked her back up she was almost reluctant to leave, but then quickly got back into her routine---that was the biggest endorsement for us! We plan to use Spa de Paw for all of our upcoming trips!
