Alison is a trusted neighbor, who we met just after her family moved to our neighborhood. We were out shoveling snow from our driveway with a friend when she walked by and offered to pitch in and help. The three of us were so grateful to this kind young woman who introduced herself as our new neighbor!! That is the genuine, kind young woman who I asked to help care for our young pup several years later. Our new dog was not used to staying home alone for many hours. We trusted Alison with our key, and she came at the appointed time and took our pup out back for a potty break and play time. She stayed and snuggled her inside with the treats we had provided and sent us pictures and a video of our pup. She understands our precious pup, and she understands us. She knows how much it means to us to get a report when we are away. She is a fine choice for a caregiver for your four-footed family members.
