Brenda & Alvin took great care of Daisy while we were away. They kept us updated with photos throughout the week. I would recommend them if you're in need of a loving home for your pet.

Brenda is an exceptionally compassionate and caring lady. My three dogs had special needs. Two of them needed diapers. Brenda was so understanding. She even ended up hand feeding them when they refused to eat because they missed us. My dogs are rescue dogs and they have fear of abandonment, and Brenda completely understood and let them set the pace, choose their location in the home, and spend a lot of lovely time in the sunny garden. Thank you so much, Brenda!
