We love you and wanted to share our thoughts about K9 Nirvana with you!

Since adopting Ed and Mary Ann a few years back we’ve been looking for the perfect pet sitter service, friendly, warm, caring people who understand our different needs and can accommodate our desires daily and during times of special requirements! We’ve found that with you at K9 Nirvana!

As you know, I am over 13 years old this year, and things don’t work in my dog’s body like they used to…some days when it is hot, my black coat absorbs lots of sun and I get hot easily which tires me and makes me walk slower than Schooner; other days, my arthritis acts up and I have trouble navigating the stairs, also forcing you and Schooner to go slower while I scale the steps indoors or outside, and I know that’s inconvenient for Schooner, but your walks always accept my limits or constraints on those “slow” days to make the walks fun and smooth!

Schooner offered that he loves our walks each day in Centreville with you in general! He appreciates that you let him “attack” you with his favorite toy each day on arrival at our house, accepting his offer to play, even though you’re there for a purpose! He especially likes that you let him be “almost-Alpha” and lead the mini-pack in walks, letting him strut out front leading the way…and visiting with our neighborhood 4-legged friends on occasion! Getting a cookie-snack at the end of each walk is a highlight of each day for Schooner and me when we get home, rain or shine!

When Mom and Dad had to be away one evening for an emergency, Dad called and you agreed to walk us and feed us on no-notice! That was super, and put me and Schooner at-ease knowing you were there for us! We try (sometimes in vain) to train Ed and Mary Ann but know if they don’t do as we like, we can always count on you Rosemary to be there for us in time of need, only a phone-call or text message-away! Rain or shine, even in the winter blizzards, you come to our home where we let Ed & Mary Ann stay, and ensure our daily social walks and feeding when required! You always ensure our home is secure on departure, and that we have fresh water if required…everything is perfect with you and we’re glad you are our professional pet sitter!

We love you K9 Nirvana!
