7. Jeannie & Robert W.
“Jeannie and Robert were fantastic caretakers for our dog. They showed us a video of their home, so we could see where he would stay, and answered any and all questions. During our dog’s stay, they sent sweet photos and videos, just enough so we’d know he was doing ok and could enjoy our holiday vacation. They took care of another dog during that time, and they were very careful introducing the two and making sure they got along. Ours was happy to have a four-legged companions as well as his human caretakers to keep him from feeling lonely. They even sent our pup home with holiday gifts. He came home happy, clean and calm. We hope he gets to visit them again and highly recommend their services. Thanks Rover and Jeanie and Robert!”
