Silver (the owner of Wagz Boutique),
First we would like to start by saying thank you, although I do not know if that is enough to show you how much we appreciate you and the services that you provide for our kids when we have to go out of town.  They love coming to camp!  We got out first dog in October 2007 and we were still pretty new to the area.  In the beginning we traveled everywhere by car so we could take Boomer with us, although it was pretty difficult because both of our family’s live 12 hours from us.  This lasted for almost a year and with the addition of another dog during this time we knew that this was not going to be realistic for all trips, including the upcoming cruise we were going on.  I started looking for a place for them to stay, but after going to and touring between 8-10 places in the surrounding area I was at a complete loss, they all reminded me of mini jail cells, which personally I wasn’t going to leave me dogs in.  I finally found one place that was an hour away from our house, was kennel free and also $50/day for 2 dogs!  Something I would have paid if I hadn’t heard about Wagz Boutique the next week from a co-worker.  I called to ask about details and at first Silver was reluctant to give me information.  She stated that she didn’t want people to dump dogs off on her, that she wanted to keep dogs that were cared about as much as she cared about her dogs.  At that point, as well as talking to her more I realized that we had found our new babysitter.  Silver makes us feel comfortable about leaving our dogs while we go out of town.  We know that they are being well taken care of.  She allows them to play with their friend Cole (another camper) when he is there, allows them to bring all of their toys and bedding so they feel more at home, sends them home with goody bags and updates us as frequently as we would like either by phone, email or pictures.  Our kids love going to camp and spending time with Mrs. Silver and her family.  They all open up their hearts and playful attitudes with our kids.  She cares about them just as much as we do and we can tell, when we pick them up they are just excited about Silver and her family as they are about seeing us.  During the last trip to Wagz to drop our kids off Boomer, our older dog, started whimpering and whining when we turned on to Mrs. Silver’s road, which is the same thing he does when we go to the dog park.  He knew where we were going and was excited about it!  As long as I live in the area and Wagz is open our dogs will not stay anywhere else.  We are so pleased and happy that we have someone who puts as much time, effort and energy into our dogs as we do when we can’t be there.  We would highly recommend Wagz Boutique to anyone and actually have to several of our friends!  Thank you Mrs. Silver for everything you do and for taking such good care of our kids, I’m sure we will see you soon.

Sincerely,

Matt, Michelle, Boomer and Josie
