This was my dog’s first time at Lisa’s. I received updates and pictures through this week long stay. Lisa was patient and flexible as I awaited final plans for my trip. Buster will be back! :)

I think Lisa is a awesome cat sitter. Everytime I need someone to watch my cats when I am gone she goes above and beyond. I would recommend her to everyone.
