Reviews for K9 Paradise Retreat
  "I could not think of anyone more trust worthy to leave your furbabies with. We've known Dian and her dogs for almost two years now. She prepares homemade food and treats, attends to allergies and grooms Jelly Bean. 
  During our honeymoon, JB stayed at K9 for a week and she almost didn't want to come home! I knew she was safe and loved and I didn't have to worry at all. 5 out 5 stars. I would recommend."

    "We enjoy our spa time in the spacious fenced back yard with the private waterfall and pool. We have lots of fun playing with the other dogs and chasing balls. The squirrels in the trees are a special treat to captivate our interest.
    Mealtime is highly anticipated as Chef Dian serves two gourmet meals a day and makes sure we take our medication on schedule. She also gives us nutritious treats which we love. Exercise walks keep us slim and trim as Coach Dian lets us investigate beyond the ivy-covered fence. Our "Field and Stream" modeling experience is useful as Director Dian takes frequent pictures to send to Mom and Dad so they can see how much we are enjoying our vacation. We return to our parents happy, pampered and bathed to look forward to our next visit to K9 Paradise."

    "Piper LOVES her time with Dian. Dian texts me updates and treats Piper as one of her own. Dian’s home and yard are a paradise for pups. Each time Piper can’t wait to go back. She loves Dian and the care she receives."

"My babies were spoiled rotten."
My two doggies- a golden retriever named Yamaha and a little chihuahua named Apple Pie- had an absolute blast staying with Dian.  She was fabulous at catering to my dogs' needs. My golden has severe anxiety leaving me and she took such great care of him.  She massaged his ears with lavender, played ball with him, played meditation music and kept him comfortable and loved.  She also gave him fresh chicken and rice for stomach aches and nervous diarrhea.  
For my chihuahua, she held her and even provided a thunder vest to help her stay calm during storms.  She also showed me an alternative harness to keep my chihuahua from getting rashes under her arms.  Aside from great care, food walks, exercise; what I loved the most about K9 Paradise was that she kept both of my dogs happy, relaxed and comfortable.  She made sure each of them had their own safe places and that they wouldn't be bombarded from other dogs.  She also sent many pictures and updates to me while I was away, to make sure I knew my dogs were safe and having fun.  Even after we brought our dogs home, Dian continued to message me and make sure they were okay. 
She truly cares about her dogs and that is why I will never take my dogs anywhere else.  Thanks so much Dian!!!

"It was like a home away from home for them."
  Eric and I wanted to say thank you for taking such good care of Gus and Charlie for us.  All the photos and videos were greatly appreciated!  It was like a home away from home for them and that's all I could have asked for.  I know they have a great time with all the new toys and treats from their Christmas Stockings.  Keep doing what you're doing. We will certainly be back!

"Whiskey loves going on vacation with her."
  We would like to highly recommend K9 Paradise.  Ms. Joy provides such a special love and care with tons of attention in her home for our baby with paws. Whiskey loves going on vacation with her.  Thank you so much.
