“I recently had the pleasure of using Rover and found Virginia (last minute) during a quick Trip to Durango. I couldn't be more pleased. Throughout the entire time I was away, Virginia kept me updated with photos and messages, providing great peace of mind. It was evident that Chapa was happy, well-exercised, and receiving plenty of attention and affection. Virginia is responsible, trustworthy, and I returned to a happy, healthy dog and a home that was just as I left it. I highly recommend Virginia to anyone in need of a reliable and caring dog sitter. Thank you, Virginia, for taking such wonderful care of Chapa!”
