I was very nervous leaving our dogs in someone else's care, but Jasper took time for a meet and greet beforehand which really helped alleviate anxiety for myself and my dogs.

She followed his daily feeding schedule, took him out when necessary and even took him out to parks and the beach to play, which was unexpected but very necessary for our crazy pup. Upon our return, tucker was excited to see us yet sad to leave his new friend Katie, who took care of him so well in our absence!”
