As a dog owner herself, she understands that these dogs are a part of our family so she treats them like they’re a part of her family. She sent us lots of updates and pictures throughout the stay and she always responded immediately to any messages I sent her. Our dogs loved playing in her large fenced-in yard and they were returned happy (and tired!).”
13. Samantha M.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a little girl. I currently have dogs that are living in my parent’s home that I take care of frequently as well as my friends’ fur babies! :) I am currently a college student and I dedicate most of my school time on Mondays & Wednesdays meaning I am available any other day of the week! :) I have a fenced secluded yard. I also have dogs located in my parent’s home. So, if your fur baby needs company I can bring my fur babies around. If your fur baby prefers no company, there is no problem.
