“Areana cared for our cat and dog at our home while we were away for a long weekend. Our dog can be challenging as he has high anxiety and leash aggression outside of the home, but Areana handled both our pets with ease. We were able to really enjoy our vacation knowing they were so well taken care of! We received regular updates a few times per day to let us know how they were doing. Highly recommend - we will be using Areana in the future for sure!”
