“Adi is the dictionary definition of a dog lover. She loves all dogs: small or large, shy or friendly, fluffy or athletic, and everything in between. She has cared for our dog Rocco since he was a puppy, always showering him with affection and responsibly keeping up with all his needs (vaccinations, walks, feeding, exercise). Beyond Rocco, she’s never met a dog she didn’t love, and I’m confident your dog will be no different.”

I am very familiar with all types of leashes and harnesses and am a very responsible, clean, and organized person. If I come into your home I will respect your space and leave it exactly the same, if not cleaner, than I found it.
