“Min and Matthew were exceptional sitters for my girl, Rani! Not only did they play with her endlessly (seriously, Rani has zero ability to self-regulate and they went with it!), they also cared for her as their own pup. When she was being finicky about eating, Min took the time to spoon feed her just like I do. Min also send so many pictures and videos, which helped me feel so at peace knowing Rani was well taken care of and loved. I will definitely be sending Rani back to Min and Matthew’s in the future…the 40 minute drive to/from our place is more than worth it!”
“Renee was an amazing sitter!! My pup can be both a little shy and very energetic but she did a great job taking care of him. She was always friendly and prompt in her communication and I’d trust her with any dog!”
“Barbara was wonderful & took great care of Ruby!! She kept us updated with photos, videos & messages .. very appreciated. She also enjoyed playing with Dobby .. and came home a happy pup. We look forward to more happy stays with Barbara, Dobby & fam. Tnk you! :)”
“Chris watched my dog, Francine while I was away and I can’t recommend him enough. He and his mom treated her like she was their own and provided daily updates and photos throughout her stay. It was a great experience and the most comfortable I’ve felt leaving my dog with someone else. If you need a trustworthy pet sitter, your dog will be in great hands with Chris.”
“Janelle and Joel took excellent care of our two shepherds while we were away for a week. They were so naturally good with them from the first moment we introduced them. We were able to relax and sleep at night, knowing they were being loved and cared for! They sent regular updates and pictures, even a special one from each dog on Mother’s Day. ❤️”
“They took wonderful care of our dog! They took her on field trips and adventures. They provided pictures and videos and were completely accommodating to our schedule and our dogs needs. Sammy had the best time and came home happy, healthy and tired! We felt completely at ease with them and their dog. Beautiful property for the dog to spend a weekend and we will happily use them again. Wonderful care of our dog without a worry! Thank you!”
“Erin and her family were absolutely amazing! Our dog Millie was so well cared for and genuinely loved during her stay. The communication was excellent throughout—we always felt confident that she was in great hands. We will definitely book with Erin again the next time we travel. Huge thanks to Erin and her family for taking such wonderful care of Millie!”
“Kelly was amazing with Crash. She and her family had Crash for a full month... and he was clearly a happy Dog. When he is stressed he loses hair on his side, that did not happen!!! And his first night/day home, We think he was depressed b/c he missed Kelly and her Family.. She Truly kept us informed, sent pictures and was just such a peace in our hearts to have Crash so happy. We will use Kelly again!!”
“Jax was so well cared for in Joanne’s care. She is delightful and took Jax pretty much on a last minute notice. She always has a smile on her face and was a joy to work with. Jax was well adjusted being back home.”
“Super friendly couple that took great care of our Dicey, sending us updates and pictures to brighten our day while traveling. I highly recommend them for your pet sitting needs.”
“We always feel reassured that our pup is taken care of and they’re happy to have her. Daisy is treated like the princess she is. I highly recommend their family to watch your beloved pets.”
“Maki and Joel and their family took great care of Ragnar. They treated him as part of the family and that really made me feel comfortable. I can’t thank and recommend them enough!”
“Emily was wonderful. Very responsive and took great care of my dog. She also was very accommodating when I arrived back later then expected to pick up my dog. Will definitely use her again.”
“Megan took such great care of our dog! She kept us updated with photos throughout our stay and we could see how happy our pup was. Her kids were also so incredibly sweet and gentle with her! Definitely recommend and will absolutely be rebooking when we’re in need of a sitter in this area!”
“Jennifer and her family did a wonderful job taking care of Buddy. She kept me informed and he had a great time. I’m not sure he wanted to come home as he had so much fun. We will definitely use her again.”
“We are so grateful to Elisa, Jim, and their son for taking such wonderful care of our pup while we were away for over two weeks. Since he was only 4 months old, we were extremely anxious about leaving him at such a young age. However, Elisa’s daily photos, updates, and sweet messages quickly put our minds at ease and allowed us to fully enjoy our trip. They showered our pup with love, treated him like family, and ensured he was happy and well cared for every day. They are kind, reliable, trustworthy, and excellent communicators. We highly recommend them to any pet parent!”
“Samantha was absolutely amazing! She has a love for dogs that was immediately obvious by the way she interacted with my dog Maestro. I received frequent updates with heart warming pictures and felt connected the entire time. I would 100% recommend and will be rebooking Samantha for any future needs.”
“I had to leave my dog Thenji with Adrienne and Nick at very short notice. They were able to take her. It was so reassuring to know that she was being so lovingly cared for!”
“Can’t say enough about how much my Fur baby loves her second home. Always treated like she is their own full of love and affection. Trusting these two with your animal is the best decision you can make. They are are wonderful.”

“Allison always does the best at taking great care of my baby boy(cat). I can feel at ease knowing she is responsible, responsive and loving to my kitty! Thank you Allison!”
“I couldn't be happier with Alexia & Jay - they are my go-to sitters now! I tried Rover once before; I selected a house sitter, and the person indicated she was staying, but I don't think she spent much time here; there was little sign of her living here and my cat was hysterical and needy when I returned. A young couple for house sitting is a good idea - they won't get lonely or bored by themselves. They were personable, responsible, and responsive, with good communication. They sent me lots of videos every day of my cat being content and entertained. My cat tends to be afraid of men, but she warmed right up to Jay, he was good with her. When I got home kitty greeted me as if I had only come home from the grocery store; she had been well taken care of. Alexia and Jay left the house clean and tidy. I offered to pay them extra for various chores around the house while they were sitting. They were happy to do them, and did a great job. I came home to a house better than how I'd left it. Highly recommended!”
About: We have had cats my whole life basically. I have house sat for friends and neighbors with cats my whole life. I'm 40 now. My mom has two cats I play with constantly since my current home has someone allergic to cats. I have a rabbit now, who acts a lot like a cat. I can give medicine and groom.
“Ximena was wonderful to work with. She kept me updated with lots of pictures and kept me informed about how my cats were doing.. It was great not to have to worry about them when I was away. We are new to the area and will be using her when we travel.”
About: I have always had a pet in my house since the day I was born. Mostly dogs, but I have also had other smaller pets. I now have one 12 year old chocolate lab and one 6 year old black lab that I take care of everyday. Because of this I have experience with puppies and older dogs, along with dealing with more than one pet at a time. I currently have school from 10:30-2:15 but I am free anytime before then and after that. I also am available almost every weekend if needed. I have a fenced in yard with a doggy door to get outside and two friendly dogs to keep your pet company. I love to take my pets on walks or just play with them in the house or yard.
“She is really great. I had a last minute request, and she was very accomodating. I can tell from the pictures I get of them they are okay with her as opposed to most other people. I completely trust her with my cats.”
“This is the first time I have ever written an online review for anything. However, I have decided, in this case, a review is very much warranted. I needed a cat sitter for two trips that were only a few weeks apart. From my first meeting with Heather prior to my first trip to return home after my second trip, I never once worried about the care my cats were receiving. She was an absolute delight to work with. From the very first request to cat sit the communication was phenomenal. I loved that she didn't try to "force" herself onto my shyer cats like so many people try to do. She knew some cats will only accept you on their own terms with their own timeline. Heather was kind enough to roll my trash can to the street for pick up day and move it back to the house afterwards, and she washed up cat dishes even though I told her originally that she didn't have to do that! For those that are looking at costs, yes there are some sitters that have cheaper prices. I am also here to tell you that you will absolutely not regret booking Heather for your pet care needs. You will not worry if you know she is in charge of your fur babies. She does not treat pet sitting as a nice side job to make extra money. Heather knows she is responsible for members of your family and she takes that job very seriously. I will absolutely use Heather again in the future, as long as she is able and willing as well. Thank you, Heather!”
About: I've been caring for animals for as long as I can remember and have two dogs and a cat of my own. Friends, family, and neighbors trust me to care for their pets when they're away, and I'm often the first person they call when they need a reliable pet sitter. I treat every animal as if they are my own. I just love animals!!
“Disha was GREAT!!! She was very friendly and you could tell she genuinely cared for Jorge. She sent lots of photos and videos to assure me she was taking great care of him. She also goes above and beyond, so I would highly recommend Disha.”
“Matthew came last minute for me and did a phenomenal job. I have a Cane Corso and German Shepherd and he handled both without any issues. Def will be using him again and highly recommend him.”
“Sarah was so wonderful with my car, Astrid. Astrid is very, very shy, and Sarah was able to draw her out for play and snuggles on the first day. I always worry about leaving her, but Sarah took such fantastic care of Astrid that I wasn’t anxious after the first day. Thank you for taking such good care of her!”
“Once again, I cannot recommend Wordda enough. Every pet owner’s nightmare when they’re away came true for us: one of our beloved cats needed vet care. Wordda was our angel: she transported our baby to the vet’s office and gave us a full report of the appointment. We can’t thank her enough. She is the best!!!!”
About: Currently a stay at home mom. Prior to being a mom I was a pet sitter for 10+ years, but took some time off to focus on my family. I’m excited to get back to hanging out with all the animals! I grew up on a small horse farm and have always had dogs and cats. I have done horse sitting as well as dog/cats! I currently have an American Staffordshire terrier, Archie! Archie has a unique story to how we adopted him. He was a rescue from a hurricane in NC! I have a big soft spot for rescues and pits. Being a stay at home mom has left me with an open schedule and plenty of time to care for your pet. In some cases I may need to bring my son but I do wear him during my time there and that will always be discussed prior to me caring for your pet. I’m able to crate your dog if needed and follow your instructions on how to handle your pets. I have experience with giving some oral medications to my dog and would be happy to do so if that’s needed for your pet.

“Barbara was polite, thoughtful, and kind. She texted to let us know how he was doing about halfway through the appointment, and she shared a cute picture. I would definitely book with her again and certainly recommend her!”
“Heidi and her family were very accommodating. They made us feel safe, leaving our dogs with them. This is my first time using Rover with my golden retriever because I am very particular on who watches her. I would highly recommend Heidi and her family to my friends. Thank you Heidi!!”
About: Ive taken care of and owned dogs for 20+yrs. I have alot of love to give an will love yours like they are my own. I am currently off for summer break and am available all days and hours. I live alone with my furbaby Koda,and I love all animals! I have a year old chocolate lab who loves new friends. I have a fenced in back yard and I have a crate if needed.
About: My family and I absolutely love dogs we lost ours recently and I am not ready to get another one but would love to care for yours like he/she was our own. I have 3 very energetic kiddos that would love to play with and give lots of love and cuddles to your fur baby. I am a stay at home mom, we have no other animals of any kind so your fur baby will have all the attention when they stay with us. Please be understanding that no pets in the bed, its a very full bed already with 3 kids under 6.
About: As the proud owners to two wonderful little rescue dogs, a cat, some chickens, guinea fowl, goats and sheep, we know how hard it can be sometimes to find care for your pets and farm animals while you are away. We will provide the same level of care and kindness that I would want and expect for our own spoiled pets. Trust is an important part of pet care and petsitting, and we want you to be able to confidently, and without worry, leave your pampered pups and kitties in our care. We live on a small farm in rural Western Maryland, about 20 minutes west of Frederick. We have experience with all kinds of animal care, from horses, cows, goats, sheep, and poultry. We are currently able to provide drop-in visits for dogs, cats, and a variety of farm animals, as well as house or farm sitting, and in home boarding, as well as hourly dog park style use of our large fenced yard. Your pets will be a happy addition to our family in our home! Our whole property is fenced by 4 ft or taller board and wire fencing, with smaller areas sectioned off in the front and back yards. The driveway is gated and secure. We want your pets to feel as safe as our own. Leah and Andrew are both available for petsitting services. We currently work only at home, tending our farm homestead, and have a flexible schedule. We are able to drop in one or two times a day, or less or more often, as needed. We treat every animal as if it were our own and provide a level of care that we would expect from our pet care provider.
“We are new with Renee, Kuro has been consistently going in for day care for the past 3 weeks and I must say he has a blast. He is happy to go there, gets to play with other pups. Renee is patient and very attentive. She accommodates requests and also goes that extra mile to care for our pup. Thank you Renee.”
“Hihly recommend! Jennifer is a wonderful doggy daycare host. Our boys were excited to spend the day with her and her sweet dog "Sammy". Jennifer sent a few pics and a note to let me know how our dogs were doing.”
“Overall, I am so happy I found Alex and Christina. They were very accommodating to our pup. He is a bit anxious but A&C we’re very understanding and knew how to manage his behavior and make him feel comfortable. Our dog is on the smaller side and he was in a house with bigger dogs, but they all took their time before I left him to make him feel acclimated with his new daycare mates. I would definitely recommend these folks, they have a great professional demeanor and are very communicative and welcoming. Their space was clean and their dogs seemed very happy and healthy! This place is a great alternative to big chain kennels, we thought about Dogtopia- but they seemed so overcrowded and the dogs just seemed stressed out. Six stars for Alex and Christina! Thank you!”
“Tux has always been anxious when left behind, but did very well with Emily all day. She was very attentive to his needs and he got along well with her other daycare pup. She sent numerous pictures and answered my texts right away when I checked in on him. She asked permission to take him on a short ride in her car, which I granted since he loves car rides and hates being left behind. I will definitely book with her again. Thanks, Emily, for taking such great care of our boy.”
“Abby and her husband were great hosts! Awesome communication and everything was made easy and smooth for a last minute request. Their dogs Maple Syrup and Moose were such good puppy hosts and played well with our dog. We received plentiful videos and pictures of the fun!”
“Colleen has been most attentive with our energetic dog, Olive. Colleen’s knowledge and experience with dogs gives me comfort knowing our furry loved one is always in good hands!”
“Maki is so kind, she agreed to watch Gin on late notice. Gin definitely had fun and Maki’s! Maki was great at communicating and sending pics of Gin throughout the day! Definitely recommend!”
“Great experience and service and Boodah loved going back each day. Kierstan was awesome and helped me navigate some tricky scheduling changes around festival performances. 10 stars!”
About: I’m the person who sees an animal and immediately greets them with the warmth of an old friend. I’ve felt a bond and (to the reluctance of my parents) an un spoken duty to protect and care for animals in need since childhood. At our house we had pets of all sizes and species and dogs were considered a part of the family. I would love the opportunity to care for your pets with the same high standard of care and attention that I would want for my own. I am currently working from home and my schedule grants me the flexibility to accommodate last minute bookings. Feel free to reach out if you’re in a bind! I make house calls for check-ins/potty breaks ect. and I’m happy to include a walk to give your fur babe some much needed outdoor time while you’re away.
“They have been wonderful sitters—friendly and communicative. Our dog loves her time there and it’s god to know that she’s well taken care of. Comfy space with a fenced in yard and their dog is a good playmate.”

About: I have 7 dogs at my house and been around animals my whole life we have 3 cats as well and chickens! I love taking cares of any time of animal you just need teach me! I am available anytime in the afternoons ranging from 12:30pm-9pm. From the time I wake up to the time I go to bed I usually am taking care of my animals but I can always fit in time for yours too! I will offer to feed your pets, buy treats, little bit of exercise and playing, I will make sure they have everything they need and make sure they don’t get into any trouble the best of my ability. And I always make sure my dogs play nice at home we do have two boys who fight but they are separated and live happily in their own worlds lol.
About: I currently work as a caretaker at a dog daycare center, where I care for dogs with a wide range of personalities, temperaments, and play styles every day. Whether your dog is super energetic, anxious, older, or just needs a little extra patience and attention, I’m more than comfortable adapting to their needs. I’ve also worked as a farmhand, helping feed and care for animals like chickens and other livestock. I’ve also been around animals my whole life and currently care for a cat, an elderly black lab, and a young hound puppy. I’m a college student hoping to earn extra cash doing something I genuinely love! I treat every animal like one of my best friends and always aim to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Weekdays: Available after 1:30 PM for walks, drop-ins, and pet care. Weekends: Usually fully available for walks, house sitting, overnight stays, and extended care. I’m a Dog Daycare worker during the weekdays, so my services may be limited to the afternoon + evenings from Monday-Friday. With dogs, I’m very patient and comfortable with all personalities, including high-energy, excitable, or anxious dogs. I focus on calm and respectful handling and try to help very anxious dogs feel safe by giving them space, approaching slowly, and using gentle reassurance like calm voice and light petting on their side when appropriate. I pay attention to body language and always aim to build trust rather than pressure them into an interaction. If a dog is acting out, I redirect their attention and follow any training or behavior instructions provided by the owner. With cats, I’m used to reading their behavior and giving them the space or attention they want. I understand that many cats are super independent and are protective about their space, but I also enjoy working with affectionate, social cats. I have experience caring for kittens, including feeding and basic hands-on care, as well as senior cats who may need routine medication or any extra attention.
“Alexia was very accommodating and gave our Riley lots of attention and a good walk! Photo sent was added bonus. We highly recommend her to anyone staying in Harpers Ferry . 5 star service!”
“Ximena is an excellent dog walker! She is incredibly reliable, always on time, and my dog absolutely adores her. I always come home to a happy and tired pup, which is exactly what I'm looking for. Highly recommend!”

When caring for pets in your home, I will follow their normal routines, make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away.
About: Hi, I’m Tess! I live in Charles Town, WV with my two-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Louie, and two cats, Tatiana and Rudy — so your pet is walking into a home that already loves animals. I take a slow, easy approach to dog care. I let dogs sniff, wander, and just be themselves, whether we’re doing a neighborhood walk, a quick potty break, or a longer trail outing. Every walk is just two dogs at most, so your pup gets real time and attention. I always send photo updates along the way so you can see how they’re doing. I welcome dogs of all sizes who are friendly with other dogs, cats, and people. For boarding, I have a large fenced backyard and keep things small and relaxed — more like a home than a kennel. I also offer occasional house sitting for dogs who are happiest in their own space. I’d love to meet your pup! Feel free to reach out to check availability or set up a meet-and-greet. Fridays are my day off, so walks are unhurried and get my full attention. For boarding, I'm home all weekend, so any dog staying with me has someone around rather than sitting alone in an empty house. Dogs staying with me have access to a large fenced backyard and are never left alone outside. Inside, I keep a calm, low-stimulation environment. My Cavalier Louie lives here full time, so any boarding dog will be introduced to him gradually and supervised until I'm confident they're comfortable together. I do a meet and greet with Louie before confirming any boarding stay. For house sitting, I follow the owner's routine as closely as possible so the dog's environment feels as normal as it can while they're away. Photo updates are sent throughout any service.
“Jennifer did an amazing job! She gave us piece of mind knowing that our dog was taken care of while we explored DC. She was very thoughtful with our pup on the extreme temperatures too!”

About: I've owned and watched dogs since I was 10 years old. From small puppies, elderly dogs, to dogs huge as a mastiff and small as a chihuahua. Whether they be my own, friends, or families I held dear, being around and caring for dogs have always been a huge part of my life! I've fed them, bathed them, given them medicine, and have always been relable. Currently, I am mostly self-employed & studying for a Real Estate license. I do work mornings at a horse barn, and have a contract gig working occasional weekends with a D&D-styled Bed & Breakfast. Thankfully those shifts are scheduled months in advance and, for barn work, typically wrap up around 11-Noon. :) I'm always willing to give dogs the ample affections and pets they need! I'm super attentive to when they need to go outside/take a walk, have their food right on schedule, have some playtime, or whenever they just geniunely need attention and love. I honestly do it everyday for my own dogs. So I'll have no trouble giving them the same needs I give my precious wee babies.
About: I have experience with pet sitting throughout the years for family, friends, and neighbors. I'd say I have a deep caring nature when it comes to all living things from puppies, cats, dogs big and small, turtles, fish, hamsters, plants, you name it! I I've had many people rely on me to take care of their pets with no complaints and I hope to also be that person for you! I am currently working a part-time job, so I have plenty of time to take care of your furry friends/family! My schedule varies from Monday to Friday. On days I work, I am available any time after 5pm and on days I don't work, I am available any time during the day and night. I am willing to work weekends as well knowing that for many people it is the prime time for short trips away from home. I have experience with house and pet sitting throughout the years for family, friends, and neighbors. Guiding and helping others is something I truly value within myself and I can guarantee that I am trustworthy when it comes to ensuring your pets are taken care of, knowing they have a non-so-furry friendly guest coming to look after them!
About: I have taken care of Dogs when I was little. I worked with a Family Friend who had a Dog Sitting business and he trained me to work with different kinds of breed such as Golden Retrievers, Labs, German Shepherds, Pugs and Bulldogs. I can do in home visits or walk your paw baby. Know that they will be in good hands with me! I currently am attending high school for half the day so my afternoons and evenings are free for dog walking or sitting at any time needed for you! I have a German Shepherd, Lyra and I care for her at home, I train her in my basement, and I take her on walks. I can read a dog’s body language in order to see how they feel and address them accordingly.
About: I have been caring for animals for as long as I can remember and have experienced with both cats and dogs. I also completed pre-veterinarian classes in school, which gave me a valuable knowledge about animal care, behavior, and well-being. As a pet owner myself with two dogs and three cats, I understand how important it is to provide pets with patience, attention, love, and dependable care while their owners are away. I am available Monday through Friday at any time to care for your furry friends! Whether your pet needs walks, feeding, playtime, or regular check-ins. I am happy to provide walks tailored to your dogs needs, whether that be a shorter walk, extra exercise, or longer outside time. I also enjoy spending time playing with pets to help keep them active and happy. If needed, I can also feed your pets according to their regular schedule and make sure they receive the care, attention, and routine they are used to.

“Janelle and Joel took excellent care of our two shepherds while we were away for a week. They were so naturally good with them from the first moment we introduced them. We were able to relax and sleep at night, knowing they were being loved and cared for! They sent regular updates and pictures, even a special one from each dog on Mother’s Day. ❤️”
“They took wonderful care of our dog! They took her on field trips and adventures. They provided pictures and videos and were completely accommodating to our schedule and our dogs needs. Sammy had the best time and came home happy, healthy and tired! We felt completely at ease with them and their dog. Beautiful property for the dog to spend a weekend and we will happily use them again. Wonderful care of our dog without a worry! Thank you!”
“Erin and her family were absolutely amazing! Our dog Millie was so well cared for and genuinely loved during her stay. The communication was excellent throughout—we always felt confident that she was in great hands. We will definitely book with Erin again the next time we travel. Huge thanks to Erin and her family for taking such wonderful care of Millie!”
“Kelly was amazing with Crash. She and her family had Crash for a full month... and he was clearly a happy Dog. When he is stressed he loses hair on his side, that did not happen!!! And his first night/day home, We think he was depressed b/c he missed Kelly and her Family.. She Truly kept us informed, sent pictures and was just such a peace in our hearts to have Crash so happy. We will use Kelly again!!”

“Jennifer and her family did a wonderful job taking care of Buddy. She kept me informed and he had a great time. I’m not sure he wanted to come home as he had so much fun. We will definitely use her again.”
“We are so grateful to Elisa, Jim, and their son for taking such wonderful care of our pup while we were away for over two weeks. Since he was only 4 months old, we were extremely anxious about leaving him at such a young age. However, Elisa’s daily photos, updates, and sweet messages quickly put our minds at ease and allowed us to fully enjoy our trip. They showered our pup with love, treated him like family, and ensured he was happy and well cared for every day. They are kind, reliable, trustworthy, and excellent communicators. We highly recommend them to any pet parent!”
“Samantha was absolutely amazing! She has a love for dogs that was immediately obvious by the way she interacted with my dog Maestro. I received frequent updates with heart warming pictures and felt connected the entire time. I would 100% recommend and will be rebooking Samantha for any future needs.”
“Nat & Ally were amazing. We felt so comfortable leaving our baby June (an 80lb bernadoodle) with them. They sent pictures everyday that made us so happy to see how much love they were showing her. We will definately be repeat customers. Thank you so much Nat & Ally”
“Karen was extremely nice, very welcoming of our pup Milo! she kept me updated with videos and pics which really showed how happy and safe Milo was! I really recommend her and will definitely keep booking with her in a future😊😊”
“Ellen is a phenomenal sitter. Athena has stayed with her twice and there are always other pups for her to play with and so much space. Ellen has no issue at all maintaining multiple dogs! Athena is always so happy at drop off and pickup, and needs a big nap after her stay from all the fun! We look forward to booking again!!”
“Ashley is by far the best pet sitter that we’ve used on Rover! She sends photos and videos throughout our pups entire stay and really tends to her needs while she’s there. Ashley is always on top of things even when watching multiple dogs at a time! She is fantastic in keeping our pup safe, happy, and healthy while she’s in her home and ensuring that our requests and Sophie’s needs are met! This last weekend was probably our 3rd or 4th time booking with Ashley and we absolutely could not recommend her more! She is a 5-star Rover sitter all around and we can always tell just how much she loves dogs and loves her job! Thank you Ashley!”
“Jennifer is great with our pitbull Kato. He is so excited to go to her house every time we take him there he doesnt even say goodbye! She has toys for him to play with and always sends pictures to let us know how he is doing. He has stayed with Jennifer many time and she is always available in short notice.”
