Patsy has cared for 2 of my dogs - one was a senior that required extra care and the other a young puppy. This was at two different times that she took care of Chika and Buddy. She did fabulous with both dogs - goes the extra mile to make sure she knows exactly what she is to do - asks if the animal needed a vet care - what she should do and who to see. She checked with me on every aspect of does the dog go out? Where is the leash and where is the food - when does the dog get fed and what does it eat? My dogs absolutely love her - and I want to add I have known Patsy for many years and she is very sweet, kind and attentive to detail. Buddy still goes to the door and waits to see if she is coming when I mention the name Patsy! No one could find a better caretaker for their dog.
