“Jen was great, she was more than willing to take on BOTH of our dogs, even though one of them is a little shy and timid. She was very flexible with drop off and pick up times, and she sent me pictures both days the dogs were with her... When we picked up our pups they were very happy :) This was our first time using DogVacay services and I was very pleased!”

His communication was thorough to assure us that things were going well, along with any questions about his care as needed.

We would definitely recommend James for any dog sitter needs and would rebook him as a dog sitter for future occasions”
