Penny did a great job with our critters over the long weekend. Everything was clean and pets were happy when we returned home.

Pennie took care of our dog Cali for a week while we were gone on vacation. She was absolutely amazing with our dog and our home. She sent us daily updates to reassure us that Cali was doing well. As long as Pennie is available, I will always rebook with her for our future needs. Thank you again Pennie!

Pennie was very professional at our meet & greet. Sent pictures of both my cats with updates. She also did additional things for me—getting mail & watering tomato plant.
