“Lady loved staying with Connor! I could tell she was happy to see us but could have cuddled with him and his roommates for another several days.

If Connor is free the next time we go out of town I will certainly use him again for dog sitting.”

As.a college Senior, Lily finds that the time she spends with your pets helps to balance out the demands of a rigorous course load, so it's a win/win for everyone.”
