“I love how Virginia pays attention to detail. She wanted to make sure that she knew my puppy from his treats and his routine. I never worried a minute while my pets are in her care because she has everything under control. It was such a comfort knowing that my fur baby didn’t have to go stay somewhere else, but could stay in his own routine at home. I would HIGHLY recommend Virginia and her pet sitting services to ALL my friends with furry people. Don’t even worry about stressing or planning for a trip to the kennel, just let Virginia come over and take care of your little family at home. AND, she will update you as often as you’d like regarding your pets and their behavior. Call her today!!”
