We booked Maddi at the last second and she was great. Very communicative but, more importantly, loving to our old gal! We’re so happy we connected with her.

We contracted her well in advance and explained our expectations on how much time the dogs would be left alone. We were not looking for someone to drop in and out. We have young dogs and one has to be crated because she can be destructive. I didn’t want her left in the crate all the time. I was very clear about that. Maddi did not follow our expectations and when I said something about the dogs being left alone too long, she had her mother come over to watch our dogs on two separate occasions during that long weekend because it was her birthday and she had planned other things to do. Additionally she had her boyfriend over without asking. It was nice of her mother to cover for her but we didn’t hire her mother. If she was too busy to take the job she shouldn’t have taken it. We have Ring cameras so we could see how much time she was there.
