Heatherwood pet parents share their Rover experiences
There aren't enough words in the world to describe how amazing Gizelle is. Trusting your furry family members to someone is a big ask, but Gizelle makes it an easy decision. Our one cat has been medicated for a while now, and another just got medicated. Gizelle has been more than flexible with medications, even when we've reached out to her to change medications. She has kept an eye on their health while making sure they are fed and happy. Our one cat came down with a UTI that we did not see coming, Gizelle immediately recognized it which warranted an ER visit lasting three days. We may have lost an animal had Gizelle not been SO observant and SO on top of everything. From the bottom of our hearts Gizelle, THANK YOU!! Side benefit is that Gizelle takes the best pictures of your furry loved ones. It gives us such peace of mind seeing adorable pictures of our little ones while we're away. Even if they don't want anything to do with us, they LOVE Gizelle. If you're battling between which sitter to pick, we definitely think you should pick Gizelle!
