My family and I have known Ali for roughly five years now and he has taken care of our Labrador Cocoa for the past two. In the time that he has cared for Cocoa, Ali has always been dependable and has never missed or been late to any visits or feedings. He is quite vocal and understands all of Cocoa's commands so well that she treats him as if he was a part of our family. All around Ali is a driven and passionate individual, even more so when he is around animals. One of the main concerns that my family had when looking for a dog sitter was the administration of her medicine, as no family would want their dog to miss something as important as a heart worm pill. Cocoa has become so comfortable with Ali that she will take medicine from Ali, which is rare to see from our lab. Every time Ali has cared for Cocoa he provides our family with detailed messages about her well-being, which gives us all peace of mind. Ali's disposition and the security he provides is exactly why we depend on him so often to look after our dog.
