Thanks for being so amazing, Naomi!”

Our beloved (and dearly departed) elder dogs, Echo and Momo, used to enjoy travel and play-dates together, and Margrit came to my home and dogsat when I had to leave town without Echo. When we worked together, Margrit always put her dog's needs before whatever after work events might be planned. I would recomment Margrit as a loving caretaker.”
