HOME AWAY FROM HOME

I grew up with dogs, cats, goats and a pony. I cannot imagine my life without involving myself with animals. My mother ran a grooming business and as a child I was her helper. She taught me how to love and be patient with animals.

Joyce was wonderful from the first time we met until the end of the dog sitting. She sent me a reminder a few days before. She sent emails and pics almost every day of the sitting. She accommodated me with 2 extra days not originally booked. She responds almost immediately to text or emails. She is just an overall delightful person that loved and cared for my dog as her own. My dog got along well with her and by the end of her stay she (my dog) had to think about coming back home, LOL. I totally recommend Joyce and will use her again in the future.
