I had an absolutely wonderful experience with Jo! From the very beginning, she was incredibly helpful, patient, and knowledgeable. Every question I had — big or small — she answered right away, and she made the entire process feel smooth and stress-free.
She kept me updated throughout, sent photos and truly cared about preparing my puppy before bringing her home. You can tell she loves what she does and takes great pride in raising healthy, happy pups.
When it was time to pick up my little girl, everything was organized, clear, and comforting. She gave me detailed instructions, tips, and guidance to make the transition easy. Even after pickup, she’s communicated with me and continues to be helpful and supportive.
If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring, I HIGHLY recommend her. My puppy is perfect — healthy, sweet, confident, and so well-socialized — and I’m so grateful for the care and love she received before coming home.
I couldn’t have asked for a better breeder or a better experience. Thank you so much!

Jo was super easy to work with. She was very informative about the puppies and always responded to my messages in a timely manner. I would highly recommend her due to the fact that not only is she a genuine person but because she also truly cares about the puppies and their well being. We have had our puppy for about three days now and he has already filled our hearts with so much love and joy. Thank you for everything, Jo 🐶10/10!!

Jo was responsive, caring and accurate in describing my new fur baby. Pick up was incredibly straightforward and easy, and she even gave space for me and the pup to bond and see if it was a right fit. I would definitely recommend using her services as she is a seasoned breeder, who certainly treats the puppies as if they were her own until they find their forever home.

Very nice working with Jo! She answered all my questions promptly. Two weeks in our puppy is a joy…bright, affectionate and playful! Bonding well with our 7 year old rescue. Can tell he was well cared for by his mom Peppermint Patty and Jo and her family.

We had such an amazing experience with Jo, when bringing home our Cavapoo puppy. From the very beginning, Jo was incredibly knowledgeable and always quick to answer any questions we had. She made the entire process easy, stress-free, and enjoyable, which gave us so much confidence as first-time Cavapoo owners. Her professionalism and care truly showed every step of the way, and it’s clear how much love she puts into her puppies. Thanks to Jo, we now have the sweetest new family member who has already brought so much joy into our lives. We are so grateful!
