I usually take my little Tuffy with me when I travel. However, I couldn't on this trip. I called a friend and she recommended Amy. At first I was hesitant--I had never left my baby with a pet sitter before. But, I figured at least he was not going to be kept in a cage at a kennel all week...and maybe walked once a day, and I hated the thought of him being left alone all night in a cage in the dark. So, I gave Amy a try. I met Amy and her fur baby, Oliver. I seriously believe Tuffy and Oliver became bffs at first sight. They were instant friends. Amy was very kind spoken and Oliver was very well trained. I felt very comfortable leaving my baby with her, when I left on my trip. I could tell she was legit about her feelings about animals. I brought his little bed with him, his food (he is on a special diet), water bowl, and leash. I probably didn't even have to bring all that, but I did. Amy kept a journal for me---when Tuffy ate, when they went to bed for the night, where he slept, etc. ---she walked him several times each day. In addition, he had play time outside in her back yard, each day. I liked that she documented his stay for me. She also sent me a picture via text of my baby. I now know that I can leave Tuffy when I am out of town---with someone who can be his other mom, when I'm not there. I would highly recommend using Amy. Also, make sure you meet Oliver!!!
