Last March my family went to Disney World for a week. We left our two dogs as well as my mom's dog with Alison for the week. Alison was home alone with three dogs for the whole week! She managed all of their quirks perfectly (one doesn't like when other dogs are around while he eats), they don't always share toys very well... There was also a HUGE storm that week with very high winds that caused a lot of damage, there were shingles off the roof, fences were blown down, tree limbs littered our back yard. Alison handled everything beautifully. All the animals were nervous because of the storm and she tended to their individual needs perfectly. Our house was clean when we returned home! She kept in constant contact with us so that we were up to date on what was going on with all the dogs AND the weather. She was responsible, resourceful and best of all she LOVES all of our doggies. It was so nice to be so far from home and know that our home and all of our fur babies were in good hands. Nothing beats that peace of mind. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone looking for a pet/ house sitter!
