“So happy to have found Andrea to take care of Vernie for an overnight! She was so kind and understanding of his puppy energy. He is thoroughly exhausted from all the play! Happy to know we have someone we can trust when we head out of town!”
“Ellie and Carson did an amazing job taking care of our sweet Uri! From the start, they were kind, communicative, and made us feel completely comfortable leaving Uri with them. You can tell they truly love animals and treat them like family. They made sure Uri was safe, happy, and well cared for while we were away. When we picked Uri up, he was excited and waiting at the door but yet he looked relaxed and content at the same time, which means everything to us as pet owners. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Uri was in such good hands. We are very grateful for the care and attention they gave him. We would absolutely trust Ellie and Carson to watch Uri again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for dependable and caring dog sitters!”

Will 100% rebook if we travel to Salem again, we had a great experience!”
“Gina took great care of Henry and kept me updated with pictures and videos! Henry was so comfortable there and I could tell he was very loved! Will definitely book with Gina again!”
“Channon was so great. We left our 75 lb Pyrenees mix with Channon for two nights. Channon's dog Bizzy was the perfect playmate for our pup!

About: My family had two aging beagles I helped care for that eventually passed away. They both required much attention and medication. Any time my family members or friends need someone to watch their dog, they ask me. I have experience working with smaller sized dogs and much bigger dogs. I have also worked at a humane society. I just graduated from grad school so I will have plenty of time to care for your fur babies and will make sure they are happy and healthy! I will make sure they go to the bathroom regularly, make sure they get plenty of exercise/walks, make sure they are well fed, and make sure they are overall safe and comfortable. It is my job to make sure your fur baby is happy! If using boarding services, my apartment complex is very pet friendly and has a great dog park!
“Omg I love Candice ❤️ She made sure that Yoshie had the best time away from home. She sent pictures and videos which made me happy to see that Yoshie was happy and enjoying herself. I will definitely be using her again and I’m excited about it.”
“Paisley was so good with Toph and responsive. She sent me pictures everyday and updated me on how she was doing. Paisley is great with animals and If recommend her to anyone!”
“Jane was so wonderful with my dog. After meeting with her, I knew Dixie was going to be in great hands. I received a lot of updates throughout my trip, and I could see on the pictures that Dixie was acting like she was at home. Jane understood her personality really well, so I highly recommend her to anyone who feels anxious leaving their pet for a short or long period of time. I already have her booked for my next trip. Jane was also extremely accommodating with the pick up time. After my flight back home got canceled, she understood the circumstances and told me not to worry about Dixie, that she was going to be taken care of. That was such a relief, and so appreciated. Thank you Jane for taking such great care of Dixie!”
“Our pups had a good time with them. They got the care they needed including medication administration and catering to their anxiety. They also offered to do a meet and greet beforehand. They shared lots of photos and regular updates.”
“First time with Elizabeth. Pups seemed happy staying with her. One of them was even dealing with an infection and she was great taking care of him. Would be happy to have them stay with her again. Only wish she sent more frequent photos, but I am obsessed with my pups!”

“Bonnie housesat for us and took care of our four cats. She did a great job and provided updates and photos. The cats seemed completely content when we returned as if we only left for a couple of hours.”
“Kamie did a wonderful job. She kept us well informed of her drop in visits and although our neurotic cats didn't come out while here, she provided photos showing cleaned out liyter box along with filled water and food dishes. We look forward to her services in the future and would highly recommend her to anyone else.”

About: Your cat loves their home — so why uproot them? I come to your cat on their turf, keeping their routine, comfort, and independence intact. As an experienced cat caregiver and Humane Society foster, I understand that cats are creatures of habit. I'll make sure they're fed, watered, and have a clean litter box, but I also know how to give them the attention they actually want — whether that's a good play session, some quiet company, or simply respecting their space. Every visit includes a check-in update and photos so you can relax knowing your kitty is happy and well cared for at home.
“Roselynn was great to work with! She even managed to get a picture of my very shy cat. She is a great communicator and gave me updates every day. I look forward to having her pet sit my cat Ziggy again.”
“Audrey took excellent care of our 5-month-old kittens! It was the first time leaving them for the weekend - nerve wracking for humans and kittens - and she kept us well updated on their care and antics. It seemed like they all enjoyed each others company! We really appreciated the time she spent with them beyond just feeding and all that. Looking at photos and reading her updates every day was a fun part of our trip!”
“Flora is amazing! This is the second time I have booked her and I cannot recommend her enough! She is prompt, great with the cats, and even checked to make sure all my chickens made it into the coop.”
“Eleanor went above and beyond. On her second day visiting, she discovered that my water heater had gone out and my bedroom was flooded. She communicated promptly and stayed an extra hour to keep my cat safe while maintenance came. My cat enjoyed her company and playtime and I loved seeing the photos of him while I was away!”
“Jill did an amazing job looking after my two kitties! She was on-time, followed instructions, and sent updates with pictures from each visit. She played with them and it was evident from the photos how comfortable they were with her. She provided the peace of mind I need to enjoy a weekend away. Will definitely be booking Jill again!”
About: Hi! My name is Rebecca. I grew up with dogs and cats in my household. I have experience caring for both small and large dogs, cats, and other animals. For the past two years, I have provided around-the-clock care, overnight care, and walking and drop-in visits for a different pet care company. I not only cared for dogs and cats, but I lived with and cared for my roommate’s four ferrets: Ranger, Rogue, Bard, and Cleric. I have recently moved back home and would love to continue to meet and care for new furry friends! I currently have a lot of free time over the summer and I am available any day of the week for drop-ins, dog walking, or house sitting services. I always want to make sure that I am following the pet’s own specific schedule so that they can be comfortable and relaxed while the owner is away.
About: I was raised on a farm with cats and dogs. I have a plott hound mix, a pit bull, a lab, and a sassy calico cat, all rescues, of my own. I have a lot of compassion for animals and treat them like members of the family, albeit spoiled ones. My goal is to keep your pet as comfortable as possible while their human(s) are gone. I am comfortable with cats and small to large dogs at any energy level. My neighbors, vet, and friends can provide references, if needed. I work in education, so my summer schedule is wide open. Nights, weekends, and some holidays are possible during the school year. I am able to check in, walk, stay overnight, etc. In your home, I will follow the instructions given and take pictures to let you know your pets are well taken care of. My goal is to make them as comfortable as possible while their humans are away.

“Jessica was fantastic! I was in town for work and she accommodated my short request to watch my dog. Jessica was friendly and my dog took to her this morning without hesitation.

“Karyssa and her family were communicative about pick-up, drop-off, and events during the daycare. Gumby had a great time hanging out with her family. We couldn’t recommend her more 🐶! 10/10 would do it again.”
“Jared was a great pet sitter for my Westley. He was prompt in replying, friendly & seemed genuinely interested in caring for my little dog…an added bonus, he had a fenced in backyard to keep Westley safe. Westley was a happy pup when I picked him up!”

“Natalie and her husband took amazing care of my dogs!! They loved them like their own and sent me pictures and videos throughout the day showing me what they were doing. They walked them, fed them, played with them. They even picked them up and dropped them off because they knew we would be busy with our estate sale. I would highly recommend Natalie for all of your pet care needs! I would use her again immediately if the need arose!”
“Morgan and her family were absolutely AMAZING to my sweet pup! You can really tell that she (along with her children) really just love to care for animals. I was very satisfied with everything, my pup had two days of “day care” when my work schedule was extremely busy & my pup was so excited to go back the next day and see her family. Thank you again Morgan!”
About: I’ve always grown up with animals in the home, a home isn’t a home unless you here the pitter patter of those paws of the floor. Dogs are at the heart of my being and unfortunately you can only have so many. But the best way I’ve found to experience the love of all kind of dogs are through the caring for of everyone else’s four legged friend. I’ve always watched and cared for others animals off and on as a side income and personal enjoyment; giving all the love and attention they need while their human is away. All the way back when I was in high school, many years ago, I discovered the love and care for others dogs when I worked for the groomers and it’s never stopped since. My sweet Winter departed in 2020 after 13 long and steady years by my side and while I haven’t yet been ready to give my full heart away I’ve found great healing, giving lots of love, walks, baths, ball games, and lots of snuggs, All welcomed with love. After 10 years working in the field of Art Education and Public Art Coordination I decided to take the leap and start my business, Swift & Dapper LLC. Life is never one size fit all and too short to accept anything less that extraordinary whether that’s personal style or grooming, spacial reconfiguration or custom built carpentry, curated interiors or stunning professional services you have specific needs and you deserve nothing less than what you need and then some.

Fresh running water, soft comfy rugs and beds, and lots of fluffy blankets for those that like to snuggle up on the sofa for a movie. Our backyard is large and fenced in, ready for fetch and play time. We are used to having little furry ones (especially our neighbor’s little ones) wandering around and keep it in the front of mind always. Instructions for specific care are much appreciated and followed to the ledger.

About: I have always had a deep love and passion for dogs, which has driven me to dedicate my time and energy to their care. Over the years, I have gained extensive experience in various aspects of dog care, from basic needs to specialized attention. My journey began with volunteering at local animal shelters, where I learned the fundamentals of dog care, including feeding, grooming, and basic training. This hands-on experience allowed me to understand the unique personalities and needs of different breeds and individual dogs. I have also worked as a professional dog walker and sitter for several years, providing personalized care for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. My responsibilities have included everything from daily walks and playtime to administering medication and special diets. I take pride in my ability to create a safe and enjoyable environment for every dog in my care, ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve.

“Catie is wonderful! Poppy has gone several times for doggie daycare and loves it. She started crying when we were still blocks away and was so excited to see Gus. Makes it so much easier to know Poppy is having fun while I’m at work!”

About: I retired from teaching 5 years ago and have been caring for pets in their homes, cleaning litter boxes and taking dogs out for exercise during that time. I have personally owned 2 large dogs well into their senior years. I have had cats my entire life and still have one. I typically take care of cats and dogs when their owners are away; feeding, administering pills, cleaning litter boxes, exercising/playing with dogs, and playing/cuddling with cats. I believe these visits have been the most rewarding activities of my life. As a retired teacher, I am flexible to care for pets any day of the week. I am also willing to stay overnight in your home and be your pet’s companion. I still have a cat of my own on whom I like to check at some point each day if staying nights at another pet owner’s home. Sometimes the owners I serve are away for 7-15 days at a time. I will send daily updates and pictures as well during your absence. I have been providing care for pets in the owners’ homes. I therefore water and feed the cats and dogs and administer pills, if needed. I clean litter boxes and tidy up, making sure pet hair, etc. is cleaned up. I get the mail and take out trash. I play/cuddle with the cats and exercise/play/cuddle with the dogs. I love to walk so I never get enough of walking dogs. I take extra precautions if dogs are anxious when I have to leave for a while, i.e., leave music or TV playing or do something special with the dogs before I leave. The dogs usually sleep in the bed with me and we become great friends.
“Laura is amazing. She has a big heart for dogs, and took great care of Brooks. Her communication about Brooks after his walk was perfect, and I will be using her agian!”

I have a fenced yard and plenty of space in my home for pets to feel comfortable. My cat can be kept separate if needed. I’m also available for house sitting if that’s preferred.
About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of animals, from goats to chickens to house cats. I own a dog, who’s a year and a half old now, but I trained him from the time he was 8 weeks old. I also had a senior dog in my teens that I took care of. I have never met a critter I don’t love!! I’m currently a stay at home mom to my young daughter so I have plenty of time to pour all the love into your pup or kitty (or other!). My schedule is flexible to suit your needs and your fur baby’s preferences. I have a happy, friendly mid sized heeler pup who just loves other dogs and cats. I am happy to crate him if you are more comfortable with our critters not interacting while in my home, and of course, he will remain at my house while I care for your animals in your own home.

About: Hi! I’m 25 years old and a lifelong animal lover with over 10 years of hands-on pet care experience. Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your furry (or feathered!) family member needs a walk, a quick drop-in visit, overnight care, or extended sitting, you can count on me to provide reliable, loving care while you’re away. I currently have an Australian Shepherd mix and a pet bird, so I’m experienced with both dogs and exotic pets. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and I understand that every animal has unique needs and routines. I’m also experienced and confident in administering medications, whether that means pills, liquid medications, or following specific care instructions to keep your pet healthy and comfortable. My friends, family, and previous clients consistently describe me as dependable, compassionate, and attentive. I’m proud to have glowing references from pet owners who trust me to care for their beloved companions, and I work hard to earn that trust with every visit. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, playtime, and updates so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. I’m currently available for overnight stays, drop-in visits, dog walking, and other pet care services, and I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets. I can’t wait to give them the same level of care and affection that I give my own! Pet care is already a part of my everyday routine, so caring for additional pets fits seamlessly into my schedule. I start and end each day caring for my own babies, an aussie mix and a quaker 🦜 making sure they receive plenty of exercise, enrichment, attention, and love. Because I’m already committed to a structured pet care routine, I’m able to easily incorporate walks, drop-in visits, feedings, playtime, medication administration, and overnight stays for my clients’ pets. I understand how important consistency is for animals, so I make it a priority to follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. Whether it’s an energetic puppy that needs extra playtime, a senior pet requiring medication, or a shy cat that just needs some quiet companionship, I’m happy to provide personalized care that helps your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my highest priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s unique routine, personality, and needs so they feel comfortable and secure in my care. Whether we’re out on a walk, playing at home, or simply relaxing together, I remain attentive and patient while ensuring they stay safe at all times. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos, so you can feel confident knowing your pet is happy, loved, and in good hands.
“Can’t say enough wonderful things about Chelsie. Communication was stellar, she is clearly an animal lover, asked all the right questions and was completely trustworthy. I would absolutely recommend her to others and I plan to use her again. Thanks for being great Chelsie!”
“Just a terrific all around pet care. She is very kind and super friendly with our senior puppy, who runs to the door wagging happily when she sees Eleanor come to visit. We couldn't be happier with the help she has given us, and I think you will be too.”
“So so wonderful to find Tricia and not have to worry about Shelby so we could enjoy a few days away! She was attentive, prompt, responsive, and the whole package. We will be using her again!”
About: I've had pets growing up my entire life. I love animals and just enjoy being around them and giving them love! I've taken care of several pets for friends and family and just want to continue to do that for others when needed. I have my own business so I have a very flexible schedule and can be available day or night to take care of your furr babies 😊 My own animals are so friendly and loving and my home would be completely safe for ur furr babies but at this time I won't be able to board any pets at my house. This may change in the future.
About: Hi there! I'm a dedicated animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats through overnight pet sitting and as a foster home for my local Humane Society. As a foster caregiver, I've welcomed animals of all temperaments into my home — from shy, anxious pets who need extra patience and gentle reassurance, to energetic ones who need structure and play. This experience has taught me how to read animal behavior, manage different personalities under one roof, and provide the kind of attentive, compassionate care that helps pets truly thrive. Why Choose Me: My foster work means I'm trusted by my local Humane Society to care for vulnerable animals — and I take that responsibility seriously. Whether your dog needs a cozy overnight partner or your cat needs a calm lap to settle in, I treat every pet like my own. I'd love to meet your furry family member! Feel free to reach out with any questions or to set up a meet-and-greet. Being home full-time means your cat gets consistent, reliable care — no rushed visits squeezed between a busy schedule. I have the flexibility to accommodate early mornings, evenings, weekends, and last-minute requests. Your cat's routine stays intact because mine can adapt to theirs. Your pet's safety and your peace of mind are my top priority. My experience as a Humane Society foster home means I've been vetted and trusted to care for vulnerable animals — so you can feel confident leaving your cat in my hands. I treat every home I enter with respect and every pet with the same love and attention I'd give my own.
About: Hi, I’m Ashton… full-time teacher/extra full-time animal enthusiast, and your pet’s soon-to-be favorite human (other than you, of course)! I’ve been pet sitting on Rover since 2021, but I’ve been the go-to “Can you watch my dog/cat/goat?” friend for over a decade. I’ve cared for everything from purse-sized pups to dogs the size of small horses, plus cats, guinea pigs, and yes… actual goats. When I’m not shaping young minds in the classroom, I’m happily spoiling pets like they’re my own — walks, snuggles, playtime, belly rubs, and enough photo updates to make your camera roll jealous. Pet sitting is a family affair for me: my husband occasionally joins in, and my 13-year-old daughter (aka the animal whisperer) is my secret weapon for winning over even the shyest pets. Please note if you do not prefer that I include my family during visits, that is not a problem and individual care will be arranged! The goal is to make you and most importantly your pet(s) feel safe and comfortable! If you’re looking for someone reliable, experienced, and genuinely passionate about animals — with a little humor sprinkled in — I’d love to make sure your furry (or feathered, or hooved) family member feels safe, loved, and downright pampered while you’re away. Because I’m a full-time teacher, my schedule is a little unique, but I make it work in a way that keeps your pets happy and cared for without feeling rushed. • Weekends: This is when my calendar is the most open! I’m available most Saturdays and Sundays for drop-in visits throughout the day — morning, afternoon, and evening. • Weekdays (Mon–Fri): My time is more limited due to my teaching schedule. I’m available early in the morning before work and again in the late afternoon/evening after school. To make sure I can be on time and give your pets the attention they deserve, I can only accept weekday visits for clients who are in close proximity to me. Because of my schedule, I currently only offer drop-in visits — no overnights or extended stays. This way, I can give your pets the focused care they need without overcommitting. Drop-ins are perfect for feeding, potty breaks, walks, litter box care, playtime, and plenty of love while you’re away. Even with my teaching career, pet care is a big part of my life. I take it seriously (while still having fun with your pets), and I’m committed to making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved until you get home. When you share instructions for your pet’s care, I follow them closely — after all, you know your pet best. I provide detailed updates after each visit (with plenty of pictures!) so you can feel confident they’re in good hands. I’m happy to walk your pet around the yard or through the neighborhood, provide playtime if that’s what they enjoy, and crate them in the morning or at night if that’s part of their routine. My goal is simple: give you complete peace of mind while providing your pet with the same level of love, attention, and care they get from you.
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover and current pet parent to one energetic German Shorthaired Pointer puppy and two independent (but secretly snuggly) cats. Caring for such a high-energy breed has given me lots of experience with exercise needs, structure, and gentle training — while my cats remind me to always respect boundaries and read body language. Whether your pet is playful, shy, anxious, or a total goofball, I meet them where they are. I believe in kind, attentive care and keeping pets as comfortable and happy as possible while you’re away. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely love getting to know each animal’s unique personality. With a flexible schedule and ample free time, I’m able to provide reliable, consistent care tailored to your pet’s needs. Whether it’s frequent potty breaks, medication on a schedule, or just keeping them company, I’m fully present and available. I do my best to create a calm, safe, and loving environment. I’m always respectful of your space and stick closely to your pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free.
About: Been around dogs since I was little and offically took care of them when I was 8. Animals all around have been welcomed into my life whether they have four legs or not. Currently I am not working so it gives me more time to take care and play with your furry friends! I am available almost all hours of the day and can be contacted at anytime if in need of anything! I can easily bathe, clean, feed, brush, refill water for cats along with taking the time to play with them to ensure their daily enrichment for the day. For dogs I can easily help by simply brush, feeding, playing, being put into their crates, or even walking when needed to get their exercise and let them use the bathroom.
About: Hi! My name is Rebecca. I grew up with dogs and cats in my household. I have experience caring for both small and large dogs, cats, and other animals. For the past two years, I have provided around-the-clock care, overnight care, and walking and drop-in visits for a different pet care company. I not only cared for dogs and cats, but I lived with and cared for my roommate’s four ferrets: Ranger, Rogue, Bard, and Cleric. I have recently moved back home and would love to continue to meet and care for new furry friends! I currently have a lot of free time over the summer and I am available any day of the week for drop-ins, dog walking, or house sitting services. I always want to make sure that I am following the pet’s own specific schedule so that they can be comfortable and relaxed while the owner is away.
About: I've been caring for animals for over 10 years and have always had a passion for pets. I have experience house-sitting, feeding, walking, cleaning up after, and caring for dogs and cats for neighbors, family, and friends. Growing up with pets has taught me that every animal is unique, and I treat each one with the same love, patience, and attention I'd give my own. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I'm a graduate student completing my degree online while working about 30 hours a week in my internship. Outside of work and school, I spend most of my time with my family, my boyfriend, and at church on Wednesdays and Sundays. My schedule is generally flexible, and I do my best to accommodate pet owners' needs whenever possible. I often spend time accompanying the dogs with snuggles and a couple of hours of playtime a day. I provide food and water for the animals as instructed by the owner as each owner has a different approach. I often take dogs on one or two walks a day because exercise is extremely beneficial for pets.
About: I have grown up with all kinds of animals from house pets to farm animals. I currently do Rover full-time, but have worked at a dog boarding/training facility and have worked with/handled dogs of all sizes and breeds. Although I have more experience around dogs I love cats just as much! I have no issues with certain breeds, ages, sizes, or handling medicine (so long as it is nothing a professional vet should handle). I can’t wait to watch and care for your fur babies! I pet-sit full time, giving me plenty of free time to walk, watch, and love your pets! My schedule is also very flexible making it easier to schedule based off your needs! I do have my own dog but unfortunately she is not friendly with other animals. Because of this I can only do daycare/overnight at clients own homes and walks/check-ins. I have plenty of personal and professional experience with aggressive animals and have no issues watching/walking aggressive dogs so long as both me and you are comfortable with it. With that being said it is important to me that any aggressive behavior whether with animals and/or people is told upfront and honestly as well meeting the dog ahead of time.
About: I was raised on a farm with cats and dogs. I have a plott hound mix, a pit bull, a lab, and a sassy calico cat, all rescues, of my own. I have a lot of compassion for animals and treat them like members of the family, albeit spoiled ones. My goal is to keep your pet as comfortable as possible while their human(s) are gone. I am comfortable with cats and small to large dogs at any energy level. My neighbors, vet, and friends can provide references, if needed. I work in education, so my summer schedule is wide open. Nights, weekends, and some holidays are possible during the school year. I am able to check in, walk, stay overnight, etc. In your home, I will follow the instructions given and take pictures to let you know your pets are well taken care of. My goal is to make them as comfortable as possible while their humans are away.
“Lexie was so great with Brinkley. She spent a lot of time with her and gave her lots of attention. She was really accommodating with the specifics of walking her and even took her to Brinkleys favorite park! The cherry on top was that she brought a package inside for us, talk about going above and beyond. I would highly recommend using Lexie to care for you pups. Brinkley can’t wait to walk with Lexie again 🐶”

Jane was also extremely accommodating with the pick up time.

About: I have over four years of hands-on experience caring for my own dog, including managing illnesses, administering medications, and recognizing when something isn’t quite right. Through this experience, I’ve learned to pay close attention to canine behavior and body language, allowing me to pick up on subtle cues about a dog’s comfort, needs, and emotions. I understand how to respond calmly in emergency situations and how to help dogs feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether it’s encouraging a dog to eat, maintaining their routine, or simply providing companionship, I approach every dog with patience, attentiveness, and genuine compassion. I truly see dogs as family members and believe they deserve the same respect, kindness, and care that we give to people. My goal is to make every dog feel loved, secure, and understood while they’re in my care. As a therapist who works from home, I am able to provide consistent supervision and attention throughout the day. My schedule includes regular breaks, allowing me to attend to your dog’s needs, offer potty breaks, playtime, walks, affection, and companionship without long periods of separation. My home has a fenced yard for safe outdoor time, as well as multiple rooms that can be used to give dogs their own space when needed. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and are treated like part of the family, creating a comfortable, home-like environment rather than a kennel atmosphere. Most importantly, I will be home the entire time your dog is in my care, ensuring they receive attentive supervision, comfort, and companionship throughout their stay.
“Nina was wonderful and took care of our babies like her own. She was on top of communicating and checking in, sending pictures. She is our go-to now when we go out of town!”
“Ashley made sure our dog felt comfortable right away. Throughout the stay, she sent us lots of wonderful photos, and it was clear our dog was truly happy. She cares for dogs with so much love and attention. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”
