“I just realized I could write a review. Christine is awesome. She is flexible and a true “dog person”. My shepherd can be a bit protective but he loves it when Christine comes and she does exactly what the dog wants which is very comforting when my dog is at home. Christine is worth every penny and then some. I could not recommend her more!”
“While conducting the meet and greet, Mariah was studious in her note-taking of the usual care of my cat, and seemed to understand cats. This was put into action while we were gone, as I was left detailed rover-cards describing how Freyja was, and the condition of her various resources when Mariah visited. We will definitely look at rebooking for our next trip!”
