Our two pups had a great time at Small Paws Pet Care over the Thanksgiving holiday. During the week, Gina sent us texts with pictures and videos of the dogs playing. Her large fenced-in backyard is a perfect place for dogs to sniff, meander, and run and play with each other. During our initial meet-and-greet, Gina asked thoughtful questions, e.g., are your dogs scared by anything, are they on any medications, may they have a bite of turkey on Thanksgiving? At that point, I knew the pups were in good hands. The next time we leave town or need pet daycare, we will call on Small Paws. Thank you, Gina!

We have used Small Paws for a few years now. Gina is so loving to the dogs, and takes care of each pet to the owner’s specifications. There is a large fenced in back yard for the dogs to play. I have loved this service. I would recommend it to anyone!

I could not have asked for nicer place or a more wonderful person than Georgina and Small Paws Pet Care to board and take care of my 11 year old rescue Chihuahua, Taco Bella. Her whole life and spirit goes into the love of dogs and especially talking with me about all the little details and peculiarities, habits, likes, dislikes, needs, feeding, treats for Taco Bella, of which she took copious and detail notes for by the way. Her whole home as well as fenced in yard has been set up to accommodate being a full time caregiver and keeper of small dogs - she doesn't take on too many. She even has a 'Zen Room' for the dogs to separate them when needed.

Taco Bella was able to sleep with her and her husband in their bed as told her she would want to! And it goes on and on from there the praises I could heap on her and her good care. At the last minute (almost) I asked if i could bring Taco Bella the evening before when I realized the getting myself together and the dog to her before going to the airport was going to be too much for me, she said sure no problem. When I decided to stay and an extra day on my vacation that was fine too. Taco Bella was well taken care of. I got regular pictures and detailed updates - and Georgina always responded to my messages or questions right away.

This was the first time I had been away since I recused Taco Bella a little more than a year earlier. Taco Bella came out happy and healthy and fine! I was so glad that I chose Georgina and Small Paws Pet Care - I lucked out but when I need to board Taco Bella again it is here she will be going. Georgina really bends over backwards to make things just right for your dog. And her own dog, Kit? He is real heart breaker too, really great dog!

We’ve been using Small Paws for our pups since 2022 and have always had great experiences with Gina. She is very accommodating, and it’s very easy to tell that she is the biggest dog lover! She has a fully fenced half acre, which is wonderful, and our dogs get such great socialization since there are almost always a handful of other pups at Small Paws whenever we drop off/pick up.

Small Paws is wonderful! I am always happy to drop my pup Rudy with Georgina when I have a big event or vacation planned. She provides a wonderful open space for the pets to explore and always sends me pictures or videos of my dog throughout his stay. She is compassionate and flexible. I can't recommend Small Paws enough!

This past week, my family and I went on a week long vacation and put all our trust in Gina at Small Paws Pet Care LLC to take care of our 2.5 year old pup Reggie. We wanted to avoid boarding Reggie at an overcrowded dog daycare because honestly we felt like he would not be given individualized attention (which he craves).

Gina went above and beyond with Reggie, including dealing with his difficult eating habits, comforting him when we first left him, and even making sure he felt right at home allowing him to follow her all around the house / allow cuddle sessions whenever he needed.

Small Paws Pet Care is a hidden gem, and we will be returning customers from here on out. You can book Gina with confidence knowing your dog(s) will be in excellent hands. I also feel the need to add that Gina sends daily updates and a daily picture, which as a dog parent, gave me so much comfort

Small Paws Pet Care and owner Gina are my go-to for pet boarding and day care! Gina provides a safe place for my dog to stay with so much love! She is a great communicator and is flexible with pick up and drop off timing. My dog is on medication and she keeps record of when the dosages have been given. She sends me sweet photos from Ollie the entire time he is with her! She truly loves animals and gives them the very best care. She has years of experience and many strong references in our community. Book with Small Paws, it's a great experience!
