Michael watched our doggie at our house while we were out of the country. She was calm and content when we got back. He clearly walked her and played with her as we requested. I felt very confident in his care and would use him again.

Let me know if your dog requires any special needs or assistance and I’ll be eager to meet those needs. I have experience with special needs and elderly dogs.
