Reviews
Excellent as always!
My dog is extremely picky and she loves Alice. Alice is a great walker overall and really caters to Khloe's specific needs.
Great care, as always!
First off, I want to say that Alice was a very sweet girl and I think she’d be perfect for an older, lower-energy dog. I left my 1-year-old, 60-lb, German Shepherd/Husky mix with her for a day. I told her that he is accustomed to lots of walks and time at the park. She said she wasn’t comfortable taking him to the park on the first stay, and I said that was fine, but also made it clear that she’d need to tire him out. I found out after the fact that an hour or two in, without telling me, she gave him one of his emergency sedatives. She told me he was nipping and jumping, which is probably 100% true considering that he’s a 1-year-old puppy who does those things when he hasn’t had enough exercise, but I warned her in advance about that. I was going to leave a better review because I felt bad and thought my dog might be at fault here, until I saw the maps of their walks together- the longest walk that she took him on was TWO BLOCKS. I would totally trust her with the sort of dog who just needs to be taken out and fed for a day, but not with a dog like mine.
