“Stephanie took wonderful care of our Chihuahua, Ms Hazel Nut Mutt Face (aka Hazel) while we were visiting family in the area. I was a little apprehensive about leaving our pup with someone we hadn't met before, but as soon as we met Stephanie and saw how kind, gentle, and caring she was, I immediately felt at ease. She kept us updated throughout our pup's stay with frequent communication and adorable photos, which gave us great peace of mind. We were so pleased with the care she provided that we'll definitely be booking with Stephanie again whenever we visit family in the area. I highly recommend her!”

“Words can not express how thankful I was to have met John on this app. My baby is an old girl with special needs. She wears a diaper and enjoys a calm, quiet atmosphere. Thank you so much for the daily pictures and communication. I am most thankful for the confident feeling I had through my trip. Knowing my sweet girl was well cared for. Highly recommend. Thanks John”

“Peg was so kind to watch Bogey this weekend when our sitter plans had fallen through last minute. It had been several months since Bogey stayed with Peg, but he was immediately excited when we arrived and rushed toward the house. He loved playing with her pups and the other dogs in the fenced in backyard. I appreciated Peg’s periodic updates during the stay. Highly recommend - your pup will be in great hands!”

“Maegan took great care of both my dogs on a short notice. Sent pics daily to make me feel more at ease and reminded that they were in great hands. Love the indoor space she has created for dogs with direct access to her fenced in back yard so dogs were able to go outside at their free will. Will book with her again in the future.”


“Taylor was responsive in a timely manner, provided freedom for the dogs to play and exhaust themselves, and really great with animals. We will continue to use Taylor and recommend her to everyone we know. Thanks!”

“Mary is the perfect Rover for us. We left Corby, our yorkie-mix with Mary and never worried once. We knew she missed her two little dogs and would spoil Corby. He had a great time in her fenced in yard and made himself right at home on the sofa and checking out the activity outside. A quiet country setting Corby will be visiting every time we go away. She sent us picture updates and notes.”

“Julia was a charm, she is super. She cared for our little 13 pound poodle for almost 2 weeks and it’s easy to tell, he had a great time and was well cared for! We highly recommend her services, her home / facility and her “extra care factor”.”

“Mike is a great sitter. I feel at ease knowing my dog is well cared for while I’m away. Mike is very responsive! We look forward to our next booking in the near future!”

“Kassandra and Johnathan were great with our Puppy Leo! He is a big ball of energy and they were great with him and he loved playing with their dog Charlie. I would recommend to anyone in the area and will definitely bring Leo back when we need boarding again!”

“I cannot rate Addy highly enough. She was very communicative with my sometimes reactive pup. She gave me daily updates with photos. The best review, though, is as my girl looking so happy in all the photos. Will definitely book again!”

About: I just lost my 13.5 year old shepherd, I have been skilled in taking care of him and his old age and needs, I spent his whole life training him in German and English.

“Awoo was great to work with! He is responsive, caring, and kind. Awoo took great care of our 3 dogs, even administered medicine, very helpful. We will definitely send our pups to him again!”

“Jack did a great job taking care of our dog during our week long vacation. He kept us updated by sending pictures and videos. He picked up and dropped off our dog which was very convenient. He also administered his medication. We highly recommend Jack.”

“Gillian is a really sweet lady who seems to know how to handle and treat dogs. She helped us exactly the way we needed, quick drop off, and quick pickup. Would definitely recommend.”


“Even though this was short notice, Jillian was excellent with Ezra! She sent videos, photos, and updates about what was going on during the night and day. I felt at peace knowing my boy was in great hands. If you're looking for a responsible, loving, caring sitter, look no further.”

“Took great care of my pup! Was willing to accommodate his special needs. Received lots of updates and pictures. My pup had a great time and was well loved. Will be booking again in the future.”

“My dog Asher was treated like a family member, not a guest. I was absolutely thrilled as was Asher.. Cansu and Brett took him in like their own. Tons of photos and videos every day.”

“Haley has been wonderful with my puppy, Gus! It's such a relief knowing he's in good hands while I'm at work. She's reliable, communicates well, sends updates, and always makes sure he gets plenty of potty time and play. It's clear she genuinely cares about him, and he's extremely comfortable with her. I highly recommend Haley to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”


“Carey took excellent care of our 3 cats! She provided daily updates with pictures and letting us know what they were up to. She was also very accommodating with making sure my kitten who just went into heat was doing ok. I would recommend her to anyone! She’s awesome and our cats loved her ❤️ 👏 🐱”


“Abigail was wonderful with my cats! She was reliable, communicative, and sent regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while being away. It was clear my cats were well cared for and comfortable which is all I could ask for. Highly recommend! 🐱💕”


“Angela was wonderful with Mikey. He doesn’t like strangers and she manages to get him out from his hiding space. She arrived as promised and kept us informed. High recommendation’s from my husband, myself and Mikey.”

About: I’ve been the primary care taker of my dog. I have also dog sat multiple times for 4 different dogs, three of which are in the same household. I’m currently working part-time at tacobell, and I’m still in high-school, but for the summer I am mainly working from around 930/10 to about 5/530, this will definitely change when school starts back up though! I would like to work more at other peoples houses due to my own dog being territorial.. I can take the dogs out for walks (Maybe take them on a trail if that’s alright) or I can let them into the backyard if that’s what is preferred. I will also pick up the dog’s poop (I’ll bring my own poop bags and will throw it away in the outside garbage can).

“Caitlynn is the absolute best. I have 3 crazy pitbulls and she handles them beautifully. They are not easy dogs to keep safe, but Caitlynn makes it look effortless. It’s been years since my husband and I have been able to travel, but now that we have Caitlynn in our lives there are many things that we can look forward to knowing we can count on her. She stayed for over 2 hours getting to know us, our home, and furbabies before we had her over. She really made sure we were all comfortable and we are so grateful for that. We love Caitlynn and can’t wait to have her back💖”

About: 20 plus years experienced caretaker. I've rescued, fostered and adopted senior pets, pregnant mamas, puppies and the like. I have experience with walks, overnights, administering meds, wound care and of course snuggles. I work a pretty flexible part time schedule of afternoon and early evening hours a few days a week that allows me to schedule visits as needed to accommodate your pets schedule. However I am instructed to do so by the owner. In my home, I have a fenced in yard, there is also a dog park in the community. I have animal crates if needed. Large and small depending upon what is needed. I also have a silly dog of my own at home as a companion.
“Brenna did an excellent job taking care of our kitties. She is very trustworthy. She took multiple pictures of our girls which made us feel at ease that they were doing good & in good hands while we traveled.”


About: I’ve had cats my entire life but it wasn’t until I got two of my own as an adult that I realized just how much they can mean to someone. My cats are my world and I know other cat parents feel the same. I would provide the same level of care that I want for my own babies, for yours!

About: I have been taking care of my personal pets and assisting family with theirs since I was about 12. I have experience mostly with cats and dogs(everything from feeding and bathing to grooming and administering medication, I don’t do nails though), but I can also take care of basic needs for birds such as feeding/water and cleaning cages. I currently do gig work so I have as much time as I need or you want to take care of your pets and make sure they get some love! Your home your rules! Just let me know how you like things and what you have in mind for the visits. I cant take pets into my own home as we are already at our 2 pet limit but I am more than happy to help figure out what works for you!

About: Cats have always been a part of my life. My late Mother, Father and Brother love cats so I grew up with many of them. I had a deaf white cat who lived for 20 years. I have 4 cats now all of which were feral. They came to my home with each of their own fascinating stories. Sasha is 15, Hula is 9, Tommy is 4 and Cleo is 2. I can administer medicine with a pill gun and clip claws. I will comb or brush your cat and make sure they feel loved. I won’t scare timid cats and will play with the fiesty ones.

About: I have been a dog owners for 15 years. My two beautiful shitzus have since gone to the rainbow bridge. I miss those wagging tails and long walks. I would love to share my time and love with your pet. I know how difficult it is to find a sitter and be comfortable while your apart from your fur babies. I have recently retired and home all day. I live in Greenfield Center on 8 private acres nestled in the woods with a large fenced in backyard . I am retired and home all day , I mostly garden and work around the house. Pets would be an added pleasure to my home I have a fenced in backyard. I live in the country at the end of a cul-de-sac my house is one level which makes it easy for little ones and elderly pets.
“Julia and Adam have been great taking care of our high energy Vizsla. They are very attentive and accommodating to her needs. Two very responsible and caring people. I would highly recommend them.”

About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. Been boarding and running daycare full time for 10+ years. I have studied dog behaviors, CPR trained, used to train and have spent my life learning dogs. Part of my business is even making pet products like bow ties, bandanas, toys, healthy treats, signs and organic paw wax. I run my boarding and daycare full time. It is what i live every day. I board 7 days a week and run daycare Tues-Fri We have a large dog specific room which daycare is run out of (while boarding your dog can join daycare for no extra cost) this room has a dog door that leads to the large fenced in yard. Once daycare is complete or dog dependent, the door comes open and the pups join our pack (2) snuggling on the couch and begging in the kitchen 😉

About: Hey, I'm Brandon. I've got a rescue pit/boxer mix named Chip who pretty much runs my life. Ive owned dogs since 2019, and I am an animal lover at heart. I'm currently apprenticing under a professional dog trainer and volunteering at a local rescue, working toward doing this full time. So your dog isn't just getting walked - they're getting someone who's actively studying canine behavior and knows how to read and handle a dog I'm comfortable with big dogs, nervous dogs, and dogs who need a little extra patience. I'll send you photos and updates so you actually know how it went. Based in Saratoga Springs. Available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting. I work a flexible schedule with a mix of office days and travel, so I plan my bookings around it and only accept what I know I can fully commit to. Most weekday evenings and weekends are open. I'm also apprenticing with a professional dog trainer and volunteering at a local shelter, so I'm around dogs constantly - your pup won't be an afterthought squeezed into my day. I'll always confirm my availability before booking so there are no surprises. I care for dogs in your home, on your terms. I stick to whatever routine you already have - feeding, walking, potty schedule, house rules - because consistency is what keeps a dog comfortable. I'll follow your instructions exactly on leashes, doors, and anything else, and I'm careful about securing gates and entryways. Because I'm training under a professional dog trainer, I know how to read body language and spot stress or discomfort early, especially with nervous or reactive dogs. You'll get photos and updates every visit so you always know how it went.
“Jack has been great with my dog. she goes twice a week for daycare and she is always excited to get there and never wants to leave. Jack has been very flexible and professional!”

“Kelly provided 5-star doggie day care for our dog as we toured Saratoga Springs and attended a horse race at the Saratoga Racetrack. Besides being a convenient location to Saratoga Springs, Kelly’s house was perfectly set up for dog sitting with a clean food and water bowl. Kelly was so caring and wanted to know of any food restrictions and special care instructions during our dog’s stay. Kelly was incredibly communicative and responsive throughout the booking process as well as during our dog’s stay. She even was super helpful with tips on where to eat and where to go for our day in Saratoga Springs. We will definitely rebook with Kelly in future visits to Saratoga Springs. You can rest assure, knowing that your dog is in great care with Kelly! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“This was our first experience with Rover and our first sitter for our “little” pup. Lauren was great. Very communicative & friendly. Her ranch was such a great experience for our dog with so much to explore. Thank you Lauren”

“These are the best people my dog has encountered. They answered me for a last minute request on Rover which was a huge blessing. My dog got the chance to experience life on a boat for a day. They interacted with her the entire day, and wore her out. They both gave my dog so much love and she needed it because we're going through a hard time with a temporary small living situation. They were very respectful of how I have raised my own dog and wanted to be positive that I was okay with having my dog going on a boat ride. My dog got to swim for the first time.”

“Samantha was great with my 10 month old cardigan welsh corgi. Although she’s timid and more reserved when I’m not around, Samantha managed to get her out of her shell by the end of the day. Would highly recommend, I plan to be a repeat customer for sure!”

About: Very experienced Petsitter available to care for your pets. I have twenty five years of caring for dogs and cats at all life stages and enjoy each life stage. I work from home so I have plenty of time to give appropriate and loving care to your pet plus they get a lots of play time with my pets. I have a safe fenced-in yard. I provide walks if you chose.

About: With years of hands-on experience caring for animals, I bring reliability, patience, and genuine love for pets to every booking. While I was in the Navy, I’ve consistently sought opportunities to care for others’ animals and now that my military service is over, I can’t wait to spend even more time with some four legged creatures. I excel with medium-sized dogs and active pups, but I can accommodate most breeds. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’m living my best life as a stay at home dog mom while finishing up some schooling. I can provide daily walks and enrichment any day for however long your pup needs. My fenced in yard is perfect for play and I have extensive knowledge of trails in the area that are good for walks/runs. At this time, I am unable to accommodate staying in another dog’s home due to my own pup’s needs.
“Dragana and her husband were great with Sparky. He came home happy and exhausted! They provided updates on how Sparky was and how much he ate( since he’s a picky eater). We’ve found our new sitter! :) Thank you both !”

“Exceptional people! They are extremely responsive and were very welcoming. We set up a meet and greet to make sure Sheba would get along with Bear which made me feel comfortable that I was leaving Sheba in good, capable hands. I get several updates throughout the day which is awesome and they are very flexible with times. 10/10 would recommend to a friend or anyone that needs doggy daycare. Thanks for being awesome guys!”

“Cowboy had a great time with Paul! He was very patient with our rescue who takes some time to get used to men but he came home to us very happy! Will definitely be using him again in the future.”

About: I’ve had animals since I was a young girl. As a child we had cats. As a young adult I worked for a grooming, daycare, and boarding facility for 16 years.

Some grown , some in college, and my youngest 2 are 9 year old twins. I have plenty of time during the days to walk, spend time, cuddle, and love on your furry family members. My specialty is mid day breaks/walks or check ins while you’re away or have a long day at work. I am aware of the tremendous responsibility it is caring for your pet. I have my own pups and kitties and will give the same love, care, and respect my babies receive.

About: I’m a life long animal lover who would love to take care of your pets! My main priority is the happiness and safety of your animals.

I work flexible hours and have mostly day time available with the possibility of later check ins in the evening. With a little more notice I’m available for overnight stays. I like to keep a dog’s routine as stable as possible by staying in their home. I’d love a detailed thorough schedule if possible to make sure I’m meeting all of their needs!

I have experience with walks, overnights, administering meds, wound care and of course snuggles. I work a pretty flexible part time schedule of afternoon and early evening hours a few days a week that allows me to schedule visits as needed to accommodate your pets schedule. However I am instructed to do so by the owner. In my home, I have a fenced in yard, there is also a dog park in the community. I have animal crates if needed.

About: Hello, my name is Alie and my #1 passion is animals! In search of my calling in life, I have found myself working for a pet grooming salon in my hometown, Milton, NY! I spend my days Tuesday-Saturday bathing and grooming neighborhood dogs then go home to love on my own German Shepard/Belgian Malinois mix and Tabby cat! My weekends are filled with time spent with my family (pets are family!) and my pet sitting clients. I have spent my whole life around dogs and cats, helping to fulfill all of their needs, and have been formally pet-sitting for the public since 2021. Since I was about 12 years old, I have gained experience caring for dogs for friends and family, providing basic care such as feeding and potty breaks. As I grew, my experience expanded to include transportation to and from the vet and groomer, feeding, oral medication administration, ear drops/ointment, eye drops, walking, and (the best part of course) playing! My experience also includes my feline friends, most often multi-cat homes, for regular feeding, oral medication administration, ear ointment, litter box cleaning, and, you guessed it, playing! I currently work at a grooming salon in Milton Tuesday-Saturday, so on those days I am available to love on your pets in the morning before I go to work and in the evening! On Sundays and Mondays, I can come for a visit during the mid-day hours. All of my clients are the highlight of my work-day, I look forward to every visit so you can trust me to be there when you need me! Your pets safety and comfort are of the utmost importance to me, I take any time necessary to ensure your pet's comfortable with me being inside their home, even if I exceed the typical 30m or 60m visit length! Working at a grooming salon, I have honed my skills with dog body language so I know when your pups are upset. My experience with cats has also taught me when the kitties aren't happy as well! Meet & Greets are a necessary part of the booking process to ensure everyone's safety over the course of a booking. All bookings that include a dog are required to have a one-time complimentary Meet & Greet prior to booking. Dogs are careful about the humans they trust, espcially with their parents gone, so I'd like to make friends with you present! Other bookings that only include cats are not required to have a Meet & Greet prior to booking but you are more than welcome to request one! Any additional Meet & Greets that are requested beyond the initial complimentary Meet & Greet will be booked at the drop-in rate listed on my profile. At the first visit, slow and quiet are the name of the game, I take my time going about their routine so they can get used to me! After my tasks are done, it's my goal to make them as comfy as possible by offering them their favorite toys and treats at their own pace. By the end of the booking, my aim is to be your pets new best friend and your go-to sitter!
“I booked Josep last minute and they were very responsive and willing to lend a hand! My dogs were well cared for and got multiple water breaks during their walk! Very clear, quick communication I would book again😁”

About: I treat every fur baby as if they were my own. I am patient, thorough and flexible. I have 30 years of experience with cats and 20 years with dogs. Will take care of puppies/kittens to adults. I am very flexible in my schedule, as I am self-employed, so I will have plenty of time to walk, play or feed your baby. In your home I can take your baby out into your yard for potty or play time, or both. For the Kitties I can play with them, if they are in the mood, or be their temporary bed for those lap cats that love to be pet and pampered. I own a gray and white tuxedo cat named Sammy.

About: Aside from my 3 personal pets, I have raised 4 Seeing Eye dogs and pet sat for over a dozen families. I have experience in dog first aid, potty training, and reactive dogs. Socialization is important and I have the knowledge on how to do so safely for each individual dog. All breeds of dogs are welcome. I work from home and am available 24/7.

I am aware of dog safe foods and carry Benadryl and hydrogen peroxide for emergencies.
About: I have been passionate about caring for animals since childhood, with a lifelong commitment to helping pets and stray animals thrive in safe, loving environments. My goal is to ensure the health, happiness, and safety of every animal I encounter, treating them with the same love and care as if they were my own. With years of personal experience, including caring for a senior dog who lived a full 15 years and now rests peacefully, as well as raising my adventurous 4-year-old cat and my energetic 2-year-old dog, I bring dedication and compassion to animal care. Whether providing hands-on assistance or finding homes for animals in need, I am always ready to go above and beyond to keep them out of harm’s way and surrounded by love. Animal care has always been a big part of my life. I grew up around animals, which eventually led me to work in a veterinary clinic where I gained hands-on experience with pet health, behavior, and daily care. I’m no longer employed at the clinic, but the knowledge and skills I gained there still guide the way I care for every pet I work with. My schedule is now fully open, which means I can give your pet the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. Whether your companion needs walks, playtime, medication support, or simply a reliable and comforting presence, I’m committed to providing exceptional care. I treat every animal like my own and make sure you feel confident while you’re away by offering dependable communication and genuine love for your pet. If your pet has specific routines, quirks, or needs, I’m happy to accommodate. I’m excited to meet you and your furry family member! 🐾 I have a medium sized outdoor fenced in area that also is connected to an indoor area to get out of the heat. I also have a dog tie out that goes from the house down our hill.
About: I have 15 years experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes, as well as small animals and exotics. I foster dogs for a breed specific rescue, with medical and severe behavioral issues so I’ve seen it all. (Dog and human aggression ect…) If dogs are boarding in my home they must be crate trained and/or fully dog and cat friendly. We can always work something out, message me! I do not board cats but would be happy to stop by and spend some time with them. I’m home full time right now! I may go out for a couple hours for dog walking, but other than that someone is always here. We have a spare room if they need their own space. We have lots of experience fostering and crate/ rotate. We always make sure to spend equal quality time with each dog. If I am caring for your pets at your home I will spend the night there with them.

About: Hello my name is Dakota! I have over 3 years of experience working with dogs and cats. I now do this full time so I will be here with your fur babies all day! I have a fenced in backyard so they would get plenty of room to run and play. I have experience giving meds pills or shots, giving baths, walks, working with puppies or elderly dogs. I'm good with all size dogs, big or small. I look forward to meeting everyone and looking forward to meeting your dogs and your other furry friends! I do this full time now so whatever schedule they have I can do whatever they need for their stay to feel comfortable and happy. I treat the pet as if they are my own. I want them to be happy and have a great time while their family is away.

It had been several months since Bogey stayed with Peg, but he was immediately excited when we arrived and rushed toward the house. He loved playing with her pups and the other dogs in the fenced in backyard. I appreciated Peg’s periodic updates during the stay. Highly recommend - your pup will be in great hands!”

“Maegan took great care of both my dogs on a short notice. Sent pics daily to make me feel more at ease and reminded that they were in great hands. Love the indoor space she has created for dogs with direct access to her fenced in back yard so dogs were able to go outside at their free will. Will book with her again in the future.”


“Taylor was responsive in a timely manner, provided freedom for the dogs to play and exhaust themselves, and really great with animals. We will continue to use Taylor and recommend her to everyone we know. Thanks!”

“Julia was a charm, she is super. She cared for our little 13 pound poodle for almost 2 weeks and it’s easy to tell, he had a great time and was well cared for! We highly recommend her services, her home / facility and her “extra care factor”.”

“Mike is a great sitter. I feel at ease knowing my dog is well cared for while I’m away. Mike is very responsive! We look forward to our next booking in the near future!”

“Kassandra and Johnathan were great with our Puppy Leo! He is a big ball of energy and they were great with him and he loved playing with their dog Charlie. I would recommend to anyone in the area and will definitely bring Leo back when we need boarding again!”

“I cannot rate Addy highly enough. She was very communicative with my sometimes reactive pup. She gave me daily updates with photos. The best review, though, is as my girl looking so happy in all the photos. Will definitely book again!”

About: I just lost my 13.5 year old shepherd, I have been skilled in taking care of him and his old age and needs, I spent his whole life training him in German and English. I spend all day with dogs and know dog behavior very well, I have worked in boarding facility’s giving meds and food and walking dogs and learning their specific personalities. I groom dogs during the week when I’m done working I am free and certain days i have free time to care for others loved babies Care for your pets in your home where they are safe and happy, teach me how you and they like to be loved and cared for and I will always follow every direction given.
“Awoo was great to work with! He is responsive, caring, and kind. Awoo took great care of our 3 dogs, even administered medicine, very helpful. We will definitely send our pups to him again!”

“Jack did a great job taking care of our dog during our week long vacation. He kept us updated by sending pictures and videos. He picked up and dropped off our dog which was very convenient. He also administered his medication. We highly recommend Jack.”


“Even though this was short notice, Jillian was excellent with Ezra! She sent videos, photos, and updates about what was going on during the night and day. I felt at peace knowing my boy was in great hands. If you're looking for a responsible, loving, caring sitter, look no further.”

“Took great care of my pup! Was willing to accommodate his special needs. Received lots of updates and pictures. My pup had a great time and was well loved. Will be booking again in the future.”

“My dog Asher was treated like a family member, not a guest. I was absolutely thrilled as was Asher.. Cansu and Brett took him in like their own. Tons of photos and videos every day.”

“Megan and her family were wonderful with our dog, Nova, and our two cats, Spirit and Salem. From the beginning, they were incredibly welcoming and made us feel comfortable leaving our pets in their care. We also really appreciated how reasonable Megan’s pricing was. We had seen other sitters on the app charging an arm and a leg for each cat, so it was refreshing to find someone who was both affordable and provided such great care. Megan gave us regular updates on how Nova, Spirit, and Salem were doing while we were away, which gave my son and me a lot of peace of mind. It was obvious that our pets felt comfortable and happy with her and her family. In fact, they seemed like they didn’t even want to come home! The little toy camper and the dog cookies were such a special touch, too! It was incredibly thoughtful and just another example of how much care Megan puts into making both the pets and their owners feel appreciated. We had a great experience and would absolutely book with Megan again the next time we need someone to care for our pets. We highly recommend her!”

“I've finally found the best sitter. Heidi and her family took my dog Romeo into her home for a weekend and treated him with love and respect. She sent me updates and pictures of Romeo throughout the day. There were other pets at her place that Romeo got along with very well. I can tell he made some great buddies. She even cooked rice for him(Romeo loves rice) and gave him treats! Communication was great from start to end. I think my Romeo boy misses her already. Thanks Heidi!!!”

“Ginger was amazing with Otis. It was our first time leaving him but she assured us with daily updates, pictures and videos. He had a wonderful time playing with Ranger and really settled in nicely. Definitely recommend Ginger and will book with her again in the future.”


“I see why Jude is a star sitter, she was amazing with Remy, always keeping me updated with photos. Remy liked it so much he was whining when it was time to go home, he didn't want to go!! I will definitely keep her for a long time hopefully!!”
