“Can’t say enough about how awesome Jodie was. This was our first time getting a pet sitter, and we were very concerned because one of our dogs is very skittish and barks at every new person. Jodie took the time to meet our dogs beforehand so that they would feel comfortable. Jodie was so very patient and made sure that our “problem child” was well taken care of. Would definitely use Jodie again - she was just fantastic!!!!”
