“Charlie had a wonderful week with Aimee and her family. I received a daily photo of Charlie and a quick update on what fun he was having. Their dog was a great play mate for Charlie and I am so pleased with their care they gave Charlie. We will definitely book with Aimee again 😊”
“Ashley and her family took such good care of Charlie while we were out of town. She treated him like part of her family and I know he enjoyed his time there. We are so pleased with the care he received that we have already booked our next stay.”
“Nancy was incredibly accommodating! She took my senior dog in for a last minute boarding request and even kept him slightly over my requested pick-up time when I was stuck on the road. Nancy provided the ideal environment for my pup and sent me updates/pictures during his stay. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future.”
“I feel so blessed to have found Carley! My pup Faith has special needs and I never leave her with anyone but Carley.. it's so wonderful to know that she is being taken care of just like she's at home with me, so I'm not worried and I can have fun. Faith loves her time when she gets to stay with Carley and her friends!”
“1000% the best person you could ever ask for if you want your animals, family, loved the same as you love them!!!! I will not leave my babies with anyone else period. I'm very very thankful for being able to find her!!!!”
“Jess was a wonderful host and her property is a perfect dog retreat. Jess sent regular updates and photos showing how happy my dog was. My dog got lots of exercise and attention. He loved hanging with her dog and her family. Jess also has a lot of dog experience as a breeder which I appreciated. Thank you so much Jess!”
“Dylan is awesome! He is professional, responsive and very attentive to details of care provided to the doggos. I was impressed right off the bat and my boi Max seemed to really enjoy his time with Dylan. We look forward to future visits!”
“Oh my goodness. Jean could not have been any sweeter and Rusty loved her. I’m so grateful to have gotten such a caring, knowledgeable caregiver for my puppy. We will see her again soon.”
“We cannot recommend Jared highly enough. From our very first interaction, his attention to detail and professionalism set him apart. He took the time to ask thoughtful, specific questions about our dog’s routines, preferences, quirks, and health history—everything from feeding schedules and portion sizes to behavioral cues and comfort habits. It was clear he wasn’t just “watching a dog”; they were committed to understanding and caring for our dog. Communication was exceptional throughout. We received consistent updates—photos, positive words about our dog’s behavior and how much he enjoyed watching our dog. Every message reassured us that our dog was not only safe, but genuinely happy and engaged. His knowledge of dog care was evident in both small and significant ways. He demonstrated confidence in handling, situational awareness on walks, and an understanding of canine behavior that gave us complete peace of mind. He was proactive rather than reactive, anticipating needs before they became issues. Our dog can be particular, yet he adapted seamlessly and respected established routines while building trust. What truly stood out was his authenticity. There was nothing transactional about his care—it was thoughtful, warm, and sincere. You can tell when someone genuinely loves animals, and that sincerity showed in every interaction. If you are looking for someone who blends professionalism, knowledge, attentiveness, and heartfelt care, his is extraordinary. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found him and highly recommend Jared to anyone looking for an outstanding pet sitter.”
“Jennifer is really nice and accommodating. She even took care of our pit Jada with short notice. She provided daily updates for Jada including photos of their activities. We found the perfect dogsitter for Jada in the Redding area, and we look forward to her dogsitting Jada in the near future. Thanks again Jennifer!”
About: Hi! I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and have experience caring for multiple pets at once, including different breeds, ages, and personalities. I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s unique needs and routines. I work remotely, which means your pet will have constant supervision, and attention throughout the day. I treat every pet how I would want mine treated and strive to provide a calm, loving environment while you’re away. I work from home and have for over 5 years. This allowed the time to really watch over your pet and being able to handle anything they need. I have a fenced in small back yard. My apartment also offers locations to walk dogs and allow them to poop and get some extra room.
About: Hi! I’m a caring, responsible, and attentive pet lover who truly enjoys spending time with animals and making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their families are away. 🐾 I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I currently have three dogs of my own, including Sage, whom I rescued, and I’ve also cared for a rescued cat for several years. Living with multiple pets has given me plenty of experience with different personalities, energy levels, routines, and individual needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, keeping pets on their normal routines, and providing plenty of companionship and attention. I understand how important consistency and patience are, especially when a pet is in a new environment or away from their family. I currently work remotely, which gives me flexibility and allows me to spend quality time with pets throughout the day. I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine and any specific instructions you provide, because I know every pet is different. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away and to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’ll treat your pets with the same patience, kindness, and respect I give my own. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! 🐶🐱🤎 I work remotely, so I have a flexible schedule and am happy to welcome your furry friends into my routine. I’m available weekdays and weekends, with plenty of time to give your pets the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. 🐾🤎 Whether your pet stays in my home or I care for them in your home, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved.

About: I grew up with dogs. I have been living in a house now with 4 Shih Tzus ranging from 1.5 years old up to 16. I've gone through potty training all the way to eye drops. I am also owned by 5 cats so I am well versed in litter boxes and finicky eaters. I work full time Saturday through Wednesdays from 7am to 3pm. My housemate and partner works Monday through Friday from 8am to 5pm. There is almost always someone home to take care of the dogs. It is no issue for me to stop by before and after work for potties and so on. I am pretty much a low key person so hanging with the fur kids is about as exciting as I get. When I am sitting in someone's house I like to spend time with the pet. I make sure that when I leave the house I secure the doors, windows, etc. I am respectful of belongings and space. I like to make the fur kids feel like nothing is all that different as much as possible. If I'm just dropping in for walks/potty time I like to spend time with them for their comfort and stimulation. I'll make sure water is refreshed and food is full and boxes are emptied.
About: I grew up on a farm in the mountains. It introduced my love and experience for animals and the immense gratification involved. Since moving away I have took in many animals both to do my part personally in my home and giving the opportunity for others to have the same by rehabbing, sheltering and finding their forever homes. It has always been my dream to open a shelter, or even more fun a cat cafe. I am excited for the opportunity to share my love with your furbabies and am appreciative for the consideration. I am an entrepreneur from home so my schedule is very open. I am aware how hectic life can be and hope to take some of that weight off your shoulders. My cats are spoiled rotten. They are given wet food once a day on top of their dry food. They have their own room full of windows, an electric litter box and a door to their massive catio outside. As well as access to the rest of the home as given. They are given medications as needed and I use Dutch vet service to assist in staying on top of their general health. When it comes to your animals I will offer the same love and attention as I give mine while following the regimens given. As far as watching your animals in my home it will vary according to the needs and comfort of the animals I am watching.
“Youpi had a fine time with Lorrie and her dogs. That's unusual for him because he's usually afraid of big dogs and I was a little concerned about that. But with Lorrie's calming effect and the dogs' friendly attitude he learned that not all big dogs are scary. She credits that with the fact that they are foster dogs and have seen many boarders come and go. It was a great relief to know that he was safe and I was able to get my work done without feeling anxious about him. Thank you Lorrie for the wonderful photos and video. It worked out great!”
About: I have hands‑on experience caring for both cats and dogs with a wide range of personalities, routines, and needs. My approach is calm, observant, and patient — I let each pet set the pace and make sure they feel safe and comfortable from the moment I arrive. For cats, I’m especially familiar with senior care, mobility challenges, and monitoring litter box habits. I’m comfortable supporting shy or anxious cats, administering oral medications, and keeping a clean, low‑stress environment. I also have light medical experience specifically with cats like giving prescription injections and giving subcutaneous fluids when needed and directed by a vet. For dogs, I’m experienced with structured routines, leash handling, feeding schedules, and reading body language to keep walks and visits smooth and positive. I’m attentive to energy levels, comfort cues, and any changes in behavior. I have an enclosed backyard for outside time if they like, and a great walking path in the neighborhood for walks. I’m reliable, detail‑oriented, and committed to giving every pet the same level of care and respect I give my own. You’ll receive clear updates, honest communication, and photos so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away. Whether your pet is playful, independent, senior, or needs a little extra support, I’m here to provide steady, worry‑free care tailored to their needs. I am very flexible when it comes to scheduling. I can be available for full time or part time, one time or several. Just talk to me about my availability I provide calm, attentive, and safety‑focused care whether I’m visiting your home or welcoming your pet into mine. My goal is always to create a predictable, low‑stress environment where your pet feels secure and understood. In your home: I follow your routines exactly as you describe them, feeding schedules, walking routes, litter box setup, household rules, and any special instructions. I keep doors and gates secured, double‑check that pets can’t slip out, and maintain a clean environment throughout each visit. I pay close attention to behavior, appetite, and comfort so I can spot changes early and communicate them to you. For cats: I move slowly, respect boundaries, and let them approach on their terms. I’m experienced with senior cats, mobility challenges, and monitoring litter box habits. I keep their space tidy, refresh water and food carefully, and maintain a calm atmosphere that helps shy or anxious cats feel safe. For dogs: I use steady, confident leash handling, stick to familiar walking routes, and avoid overstimulation. I watch body language closely, support positive behavior, and make sure they get the right balance of exercise, structure, and comfort. Safety is always the priority, secure harnesses, controlled entrances/exits, and mindful interactions. Communication & trust: You’ll receive clear updates, honest notes, and photos every visit, so you always know how your pet is doing. I treat every pet with the same care and respect I give my own, and I work to make each visit predictable, safe, and worry‑free.
“Shawna was responsive, provided photo updates, loved hosting my baby dragons, had a home with other dogs and cats and provided great care for my dogs. I would recommend her and use her again!”
About: I have had a dog since I was born. I started caring for my dog by the age of five. Then, I did overnights with a diabetic dog, with whom I had to administer medicine. Now, I have two dogs of my own who are very special. I currently work from home, so pet care fits in seamlessly with my routine. I also have a fenced-in yard, so potty breaks can be taken frequently. I am very attentive with care for pets in my home, and I’m my clients home. I always ensure there is fresh food and water. I make sure they have toys or chew toys to keep them occupied. I am always available to take time to play, and go on potty breaks.
About: I have years of experience with my personal animals along with friends, I care for animals as if they were my own. They get the rule of the roost, and sleep in my bed! I often work 4 days a week so I have the long weekends to pet sit. If you need during the week it’s possible, as I have a doggy door and a 6 foot-dug into the ground fence, but would need to be the right fit while I’m at work, I have cameras to check on them too. Pets will get ample play time, walk/run and couch time too. The dog door is helpful once they figure it out, they can come and go as they please.
“Jason is FANTASTIC! Bennett was absolutely loved and well taken care of. Our dog is a rescue with some separation anxiety and reactionary when he is scared, Jason is knowledgeable with pups that are special needs/need extra TLC and adjusted to fit Bennett perfectly. He was incredibly communicative and sent lots of great pics and videos, truly treated our dog like he was his own. He is now our go-to dog guy!”

About: I have been around animals my whole life and always had a soft spot for cats.

About: I've had the absolute delight of caring for cats since I was 8 years old and currently share my home with two wonderfully discerning feline companions. Over the years, I've become well-versed in administering medications, tending to bandages after injuries, and providing the gentle, attentive care cats deserve. As for litter boxes, I've cleaned more than I can count—always under the intense, supervisory gaze of a cat conducting what can only be described as a meticulous quality inspection.

“Oakley had a wonderful time with Nancy and Don. They are very friendly and loving people. Oakley has lots of energy but when he got home he was tired and went to lay down. Which means he had a busy fun time. So happy we found them!!”
“Dylan was absolutely wonderful with Charlie. He accepted him right away during our meet‑and‑greet, which instantly put me at ease. He’s incredibly responsive, knowledgeable, attentive to details, and genuinely easy to talk to. Charlie had a great time with him and the other dogs — he came home happy and relaxed. Dylan’s home is clean, organized, and clearly set up with care. His wife Julie was also very supportive and welcoming, which made the experience even better. I’m so glad I found them. I highly recommend Dylan to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.”

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals—dogs, cats, and even farm animals—so caring for pets is truly a passion of mine. I understand the needs and personalities of different animals, and I love giving them attention, care, and affection. I’m responsible, dependable, and have reliable transportation, so you can count on me to be on time and keep your pets happy and safe while you’re away. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and disabled dogs as well. I have a senior Siberian Husky with hip dysplasia so i have learned to administer medication and provide special care to those pups who need it. I have raised a whole litter of puppies as well so i am experienced in potty and crate training too! I have never lived without a pup in my home and i love every bit of being a dog mom! Pet care fits seamlessly into my weekly routine because I work a flexible part-time job at Dutch Bros, which allows me plenty of time to walk, feed, and give attention to pets consistently throughout the day on weekdays and weekends. I am typically available everyday of the week besides mondays. When i am working i usually get off no later than 6pm so i am very open to overnight stays as well! Due to this flexibility i am open to last minute bookings! I visit pets in their own homes, following each owner’s instructions to keep them happy and comfortable. When in your home I would love to take your fur babies for walks, to dog parks, any anything you already do with them to make them the most comfortable! You can count on me to respect your home and maintain your pets’ usual routines.
“Thoughtful, caring, and generous with our pups. Felt super safe having her with them. Great response time. The perfect sitter to have in your phonebook when you’re in a bind! 🐾🐶”
About: Hi! A little about my pet-care experience: I’ve been caring for my own pets, as well as my neighbors’ animals, since I was a child. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, fish, hamsters, and mice, and I also have some experience caring for cows and chickens. I’m comfortable administering medications to dogs, including pills, liquids, nasal drops, and topical medications. I also have experience caring for senior dogs, as I currently have two senior dogs of my own. I understand the extra patience, attention, and care that senior pets may need. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and will treat your pets like they’re my own! 🐾 I work from home and run an online business so I have plenty of time to checkin, play with, walk, and snuggle your fur babies. I am flexible with hours and open to a long term set schedule. I am open to caring for dogs in my home depending on size, breed, and demeanor. I have two small senior dogs who aren’t in the mood for high energy at this time in their life. I do have a fully fenced yard with grass, lots of shade, and a small doggy door to go in and out as they please (if they fit). I’m walking distance to the river trail and Caldwell Park. Please reach out for inquiries and questions regarding overnights. In your home, you can expect respect and care for your space and your animal(s). I will follow your instructions and cater to your animal(s) needs, whether that be walks, play time, medications administered, food, accident clean up, or snuggles..or possibly all of the above :)
About: As a child I grew up with Great Danes, along with pit bulls, Rottweilers, Lhasa apsos, pugs, and many more. Animals have always had the biggest spot in my heart and always will. I’ve taken care of all sorts of pets from dogs and cats to horses and cows. Choosing me to care for your pets doesn’t only help your dog feel comfortable while you are out, but it gives me an excuse to do the one thing I love most in this world. I feel especially drawn to animals and I believe they feel the same about me. I’ve never met an animal who wasn’t comfortable around me. I currently work part-time at a local outdoors store but I am happy to move my schedule to accommodate specific needs of pets and owners! I can allow pets in my home for shorter amounts of time. I have a very large fenced back yard that is fully shaded. There are also beautiful walking trails nearby my home. My house is air conditioned 24/7. In a clients home I will always respect their property and belongings. Caring for pets comes with cleaning up after them from time to time and watering plants or bringing in packages while the owner is out.

Minimum during holidays is 4 nights. I have been called an animal whisperer on several occasions and I am grateful to have such a special connection with animals. I also provide “Whole Tones” music for stressed pets free of charge.

About: Hi, I’m Grace! I love all animals and grew up surrounded by them and have many of my own at home! I currently have 3 dogs,3 cats, parrots, and chickens who I take care of. I have even volunteered at Haven Humane many times, so I have lots of experience with feeding, walking, playing, and grooming! I also learned how to read pet body language and manage animals with different temperaments as a volunteer. I’m good with both young pets and older ones, and am even comfortable with administering medicine if needed, as I have pets that need regular medications. Whether you have an energetic pet who needs lots of attention and walks, or one who just wants to cuddle and needs someone to sit around at home with, I will take the best possible care of them!

About: Hi, I’m Ariyana! Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I was raised around both dogs and cats, and caring for them isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely love. Every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and comfortable, and I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. One thing that sets me apart is my experience with pets of all ages. I enjoy working with puppies and kittens, helping reinforce good manners, basic obedience, potty training, leash skills, and positive routines. I understand that young pets require patience, consistency, and lots of encouragement, and I love being part of their learning process. I also have extensive experience caring for senior pets. I’m comfortable with slower walks, administering medications (if needed), accommodating mobility limitations, following special feeding schedules, and giving older pets the extra patience, gentleness, and attention they deserve. I know how important it is to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or calm and cuddly, I’ll tailor my care to their individual personality and needs. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of exercise, enrichment, affection, and one-on-one attention while you’re away. Communication is incredibly important to me. I’ll keep you updated with photos, videos, and messages so you always know how your furry family member is doing. My goal is for you to have complete peace of mind, knowing your pet is safe, happy, and genuinely cared for. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. I strive to build lasting relationships with both pets and their owners by being dependable, attentive, and treating every animal like family. I can’t wait to meet you and your best friend! Although I work full-time, I make pet care a priority in my daily routine. I carefully manage my schedule to ensure every pet receives the time, attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Whether it’s morning visits, evening care, overnight stays, or weekend availability, I’m committed to providing reliable, high-quality care. When your pet is with me, they’ll never feel like just another appointment—they’ll be treated like family. When caring for pets in your home, I know how important it is to keep their routine as normal as possible.

“Beau immediately liked Shannon when she came over for a meet and greet. I booked her for that following Saturday for a walk. I let her know Beau doesn't like to walk when it's hot out and so she came later in the day which was perfect. She sent me a few pictures of Beau while they were out on their walk. I will be booking Shannon again!”

“Charlie had a wonderful week with Aimee and her family. I received a daily photo of Charlie and a quick update on what fun he was having. Their dog was a great play mate for Charlie and I am so pleased with their care they gave Charlie. We will definitely book with Aimee again 😊”
“Ashley and her family took such good care of Charlie while we were out of town. She treated him like part of her family and I know he enjoyed his time there. We are so pleased with the care he received that we have already booked our next stay.”
“Nancy was incredibly accommodating! She took my senior dog in for a last minute boarding request and even kept him slightly over my requested pick-up time when I was stuck on the road. Nancy provided the ideal environment for my pup and sent me updates/pictures during his stay. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future.”
“I feel so blessed to have found Carley! My pup Faith has special needs and I never leave her with anyone but Carley.. it's so wonderful to know that she is being taken care of just like she's at home with me, so I'm not worried and I can have fun. Faith loves her time when she gets to stay with Carley and her friends!”

He loved hanging with her dog and her family. Jess also has a lot of dog experience as a breeder which I appreciated. Thank you so much Jess!”
“Dylan is awesome! He is professional, responsive and very attentive to details of care provided to the doggos. I was impressed right off the bat and my boi Max seemed to really enjoy his time with Dylan. We look forward to future visits!”
“Oh my goodness. Jean could not have been any sweeter and Rusty loved her. I’m so grateful to have gotten such a caring, knowledgeable caregiver for my puppy. We will see her again soon.”
“We cannot recommend Jared highly enough. From our very first interaction, his attention to detail and professionalism set him apart. He took the time to ask thoughtful, specific questions about our dog’s routines, preferences, quirks, and health history—everything from feeding schedules and portion sizes to behavioral cues and comfort habits. It was clear he wasn’t just “watching a dog”; they were committed to understanding and caring for our dog. Communication was exceptional throughout. We received consistent updates—photos, positive words about our dog’s behavior and how much he enjoyed watching our dog. Every message reassured us that our dog was not only safe, but genuinely happy and engaged. His knowledge of dog care was evident in both small and significant ways. He demonstrated confidence in handling, situational awareness on walks, and an understanding of canine behavior that gave us complete peace of mind. He was proactive rather than reactive, anticipating needs before they became issues. Our dog can be particular, yet he adapted seamlessly and respected established routines while building trust. What truly stood out was his authenticity. There was nothing transactional about his care—it was thoughtful, warm, and sincere. You can tell when someone genuinely loves animals, and that sincerity showed in every interaction. If you are looking for someone who blends professionalism, knowledge, attentiveness, and heartfelt care, his is extraordinary. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found him and highly recommend Jared to anyone looking for an outstanding pet sitter.”
“Jennifer is really nice and accommodating. She even took care of our pit Jada with short notice. She provided daily updates for Jada including photos of their activities. We found the perfect dogsitter for Jada in the Redding area, and we look forward to her dogsitting Jada in the near future. Thanks again Jennifer!”
About: Hi! I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and have experience caring for multiple pets at once, including different breeds, ages, and personalities. I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s unique needs and routines. I work remotely, which means your pet will have constant supervision, and attention throughout the day. I treat every pet how I would want mine treated and strive to provide a calm, loving environment while you’re away. I work from home and have for over 5 years. This allowed the time to really watch over your pet and being able to handle anything they need. I have a fenced in small back yard. My apartment also offers locations to walk dogs and allow them to poop and get some extra room.
About: Hi!

I currently have three dogs of my own, including Sage, whom I rescued, and I’ve also cared for a rescued cat for several years. Living with multiple pets has given me plenty of experience with different personalities, energy levels, routines, and individual needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, keeping pets on their normal routines, and providing plenty of companionship and attention. I understand how important consistency and patience are, especially when a pet is in a new environment or away from their family. I currently work remotely, which gives me flexibility and allows me to spend quality time with pets throughout the day. I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine and any specific instructions you provide, because I know every pet is different. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away and to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’ll treat your pets with the same patience, kindness, and respect I give my own. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! 🐶🐱🤎 I work remotely, so I have a flexible schedule and am happy to welcome your furry friends into my routine.

About: I grew up on a farm in the mountains. It introduced my love and experience for animals and the immense gratification involved. Since moving away I have took in many animals both to do my part personally in my home and giving the opportunity for others to have the same by rehabbing, sheltering and finding their forever homes. It has always been my dream to open a shelter, or even more fun a cat cafe. I am excited for the opportunity to share my love with your furbabies and am appreciative for the consideration. I am an entrepreneur from home so my schedule is very open. I am aware how hectic life can be and hope to take some of that weight off your shoulders. My cats are spoiled rotten. They are given wet food once a day on top of their dry food. They have their own room full of windows, an electric litter box and a door to their massive catio outside. As well as access to the rest of the home as given. They are given medications as needed and I use Dutch vet service to assist in staying on top of their general health. When it comes to your animals I will offer the same love and attention as I give mine while following the regimens given. As far as watching your animals in my home it will vary according to the needs and comfort of the animals I am watching.
“Youpi had a fine time with Lorrie and her dogs. That's unusual for him because he's usually afraid of big dogs and I was a little concerned about that. But with Lorrie's calming effect and the dogs' friendly attitude he learned that not all big dogs are scary. She credits that with the fact that they are foster dogs and have seen many boarders come and go. It was a great relief to know that he was safe and I was able to get my work done without feeling anxious about him. Thank you Lorrie for the wonderful photos and video. It worked out great!”
“Shawna was responsive, provided photo updates, loved hosting my baby dragons, had a home with other dogs and cats and provided great care for my dogs. I would recommend her and use her again!”
About: I have years of experience with my personal animals along with friends, I care for animals as if they were my own. They get the rule of the roost, and sleep in my bed! I often work 4 days a week so I have the long weekends to pet sit. If you need during the week it’s possible, as I have a doggy door and a 6 foot-dug into the ground fence, but would need to be the right fit while I’m at work, I have cameras to check on them too. Pets will get ample play time, walk/run and couch time too. The dog door is helpful once they figure it out, they can come and go as they please.
“Jason is FANTASTIC! Bennett was absolutely loved and well taken care of. Our dog is a rescue with some separation anxiety and reactionary when he is scared, Jason is knowledgeable with pups that are special needs/need extra TLC and adjusted to fit Bennett perfectly. He was incredibly communicative and sent lots of great pics and videos, truly treated our dog like he was his own. He is now our go-to dog guy!”
