Ernie has been our dog sitter for over a year now. We have 2 dogs Macie 1 1/2 yrs and Madi 14 yrs. When we first got our dog Macie a year or so ago , the hardest thing was figuring out how we were going to take care of her while we were at work and out of town. Madi is much easier because she is older and set in her ways. Ernie told me he loved dogs and would love to watch our sweet loveable pooches. We have been beyond happy with our relationship ever since. Every time we leave Macie and Madi, whether it be day or night, we know that they are receiving the best love and care possible. All special instructions are followed to a tee. Our dogs are so happy when we get home, sometimes I think they'd even prefer to be with Ernie over their own family.
