“Kristin and Jeremy were amazing with Moxxie! Kristin provided thoughtful updates and adorable pictures while we were away, and it was clear she was in great hands. She came home clean, happy, and completely worn out (in the best way). Highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring, attentive sitters! We couldn’t have asked for better care and would absolutely book with them again.”
“10 Stars for Betsy and Ron who provide the best home away from home for our Coco! We're so happy to have had her there multiple times now, so she knows that this is her happy place when we are away. So many thanks to them for the field trips, the walks, the play and the love they give her!”
“Absolutely wonderful pet care! Tanya and David were extremely accommodating to our two large dogs (rottweiler, belgian malinois). They have specialized diets that werent an issue and we received updates throughout our entire trip. You could tell they really care about your fur buddy just as much as you do. Definitely will be rebooking in the future.”
“Kaylee was great with communication. Ans before Cooper's stay, she allowed us to have a meet and greet. During our travel she sent photos of our little guy that showed he was getting lots of attention. We will use her care again.”
“Michael and family were great! He was very responsive and checked in every day. You could tell he cared for my fur baby and took great care of her. He listened to her routine and also spoiled her with lots of snuggles and attention. I’m not sure she actually wanted to come home! I would 100% recommend Michael- and I will be sending my fur baby to daycare camp with him again!”
“Donna is wonderful, and our Sadie loved her and her whole family. I got to see pics everyday, had lots of communication and knew Sadie couldn’t be getting more love and attention. It’s so wonderful to know I have a loving home for our girl when we need to leave her I really can’t say enough about Donna. I would recommend to anyone who has a hard time leaving their furry baby! There couldn’t be a better place!”
About: Hi! My name is Vera, and caring for dogs is something I truly enjoy. I know every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

Although I don’t have a fenced yard, I live in a beautiful, quiet, dog friendly community with plenty of sidewalks, walking paths, and green spaces. I love taking dogs on regular walks so they can get fresh air, exercise, and enjoy exploring the neighborhood safely on a leash. What you can expect: 🐾 A safe, loving home environment 🐾 Multiple walks and potty breaks throughout the day 🐾 Plenty of playtime, affection, and companionship 🐾 Care tailored to your dog’s routine, diet, and any special needs 🐾 Daily photo and video updates so you always know how your furry family member is doing I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog. I’ll treat your pet with the same kindness, patience, and love that I would want for my own. I look forward to meeting you and giving your dog a home away from home! 🐶❤️ I’m available throughout the week and can provide your dog with plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, and daily walks. I keep a flexible schedule, allowing me to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable, safe, and right at home while you’re away. Your dog’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I live in a quiet, pet friendly community with beautiful sidewalks and walking paths that are perfect for safe, leashed walks.

I also send regular photo and video updates, so you’ll always know your furry friend is happy and well cared for.
“Charissa, Shawn and family, provided EXCEPTIONAL care for our boy. He had such a great time that all he wanted to do was nap when he got home. (Which is fantastic as he is a high energy boy!) They had to navigate losing power to a horrible storm and yet still kept him safe and cool and provided updates as they could. It really felt like leaving him with family! 10/10 will book again!”
“Our dogs stay with Danielle and Bri was great! They took great care of our dog and even gave him a bath after a fun day playing outside at their beautiful homestead. It was peace of mind having a meet and greet before his week long stay but he joined their pack right away. Great communication and wonderful people.”
“Very thankful for Beth's flexibility! She was able to watch my dog at her house (for the second time) when I had to go on a quick work trip with only a few days notice. She also sent me pictures of my dog to let me know that my dog was having fun!”
“We had a great experience with Andrew and Chelsea! They took fantastic care of my dog and provided updates on him throughout my time away. He was a happy pup when I picked him up! I highly recommend!”
“Courtney and her family were wonderful sitters and took great care of my Norman! I received pictures and updates on how he did for the two nights he stayed with them. Very sweet people and I would highly recommend. 😊👍”
“Angelita is 10/10! Her care of our Boston terrier was superb. Communications around our reservation was seamless and pleasant. When our travel was delayed, Angelita was flexible with our drop off time - and pick up time. The outdoor space is perfect for pets and there were a few other puppies for Lucky to play with! We saw multiple pictures of her over the 24 hours we were away. When we picked Lucky up, Angelita even had a gift baggy for us!! She had disinfected our dogs bed and washed her bowls. You can’t ask for better than Angelita. Your pet will be in great hands.”
“Rebecca was kind, friendly, responsive, and very attentive. She made me feel completely at ease and took great care of Lucky. She also kindly accommodated a last minute request to watch Lucky again the following day. Thank you Rebecca!”
“Cynthia was wonderful with our dog Finn, and this was our first time using a sitter. Finn is very shy around new people, so we weren't sure how he'd do, but he settled in at her place and seemed comfortable the whole time. Her communication was excellent from start to finish, with updates that put us at ease while we were away. Everything went smoothly and we had no issues at all. We'd happily book Cynthia again and recommend her to anyone whose dog needs a little extra patience.”
“Anna was the perfect match for our dog. This was our first time using Rover, so we were a little nervous. Anna communicated throughout the entire stay and kept us updated with pictures. Our pup was loved and cared for as if she was part of Anna’s family. We are so thankful for Anna and would recommend for others.”
“It was the first time we leave our dog here in the Usa...and we couldn't choose better!! Vicky and all her family were amazing with Hope...she sent us a lot of photos and video...and kept us updated with everything they did during the day...so we could enjoy our trip at best!!”

“Dina was wonderful and gave me great peace of mind while I was away. She came once a day to check on my cat, cleaned the litter box, made sure he had food and water, and spent quality time playing with him. It was obvious she genuinely cared and wasn’t just stopping in quickly. My cat clearly loved the attention and interaction. Being able to leave him comfortably at home instead of boarding him was a huge stress reliever. I would absolutely recommend her and would gladly book with her again.”
“Kyleigh was very responsive and took great care of my two cats! She provided helpful updates about their care, responded quickly to my messages, and sent some adorable photos/videos of the cats. I’d definitely book with Kyleigh again!”
“I could not have asked for a better catsitter. Erin made sure to update me after every visit with pictures to see how my boy was doing, and he looked happy to see her every time. He got plenty of play time and affection on top of the basic necessities. She delivers on all of her promises– and she makes sure to tell you what to expect well in advance along. Einstein was well-fed, well-loved, and well-looked-after thanks to Erin. I look forward to booking her again in the future!”
About: I’ve had experience caring for cats both personally and through pet sitting for others. I used to have a cat of my own and have watched family, friends, and neighbors’ cats many times over the years. I’m comfortable with feeding, playtime, litter box care, and making cats feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away.
“Kathy was the best cat sitter I could have asked for. My cat, Fig, was so content while I was away and that made a big difference! Kathy sent me the checkup status each time she visited, along with pics of my precious Fig. She also watered my outdoor plants which was needed in the heat wave! Kathy did it all, plus more. This was the best experience I've ever had with a cat sitter, so don't hesitate to let Kathy watch your precious pet as well.”
“Lexie did an excellent job caring for our two cats! They both have their little quirks, but she took everything in stride. We'll definitely be looking into booking with her again. Thanks Lexie!”
“Blayze was very accommodating and professional. She took care of both of our pups above and beyond expectations, and our one dog is a bit of a trouble maker. If you need a reliable dog sitter don’t hesitate to contact Blayze, 10/10 would recommend.”
“Michael jumped on board for a same day request on a holiday weekend to drop in at our home to feed our two high energy Boston's. He took them out for a potty break and a fun run and fetch game. Communication and availability was exactly what we needed. Next time we need a fur kid sitter, we won’t hesitate to contact Michael.”
About: As a lifelong animal lover, I’ve cared for a wide range of pets — from cats and dogs to small animals. I have three dogs of my own, so I understand the importance of routine, patience, and genuine love when it comes to pet care. My dogs currently live with my parents 2 miles down the road from me! My experience includes handling multiple pets at once, caring for senior dogs, and understanding different personalities and energy levels. I treat every pet like family and always go the extra mile to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I work early mornings at Hershey Hospital and typically finish around 4:30 PM, which gives me plenty of time for evening walks, drop-ins, and overnight care if needed. On my days off, I’m fully available for daytime care as well. I’m happy to work with your schedule to make sure your pets get the care and attention they deserve! For the safety and comfort of your pets, I care for them in their own familiar environment — your home — where they feel most relaxed and secure. I follow all of your instructions carefully to keep their routine as normal as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs they may have. I always prioritize their well-being and treat your home and pets with the utmost respect and care.
“Rachel is great with our pets, prompt and friendly with communication, and overall a sitter I would highly recommend!! She always allows us to enjoy our trips knowing that there is someone trustworthy checking in on the cats.”

“Tanya and David were wonderful with our dog Coco! We were on vacation and needed a sitter while at Sight and Sound. They made us feel completely at ease leaving her for the day. We definitely will use them again!”
“Jordan was amazing! She took both my dogs super last minute, and was communicative throughout the day. She was also very flexible with pick up and drop off times. I am so appreciative that she was willing to help me out at a moment’s notice.”

“I had such a wonderful experience with Vera caring for both of my Yorkies! She was loving, attentive, and took excellent care of them. I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in such good hands. I left extremely happy with her service and the care she provided. I would definitely recommend her and will absolutely use her again! ❤️🐾”

“Charissa was amazing with our last minute planning and willing to babysit our fur baby. Our pup loves attention and affection from anyone and everyone but he felt completely at home within her home and that’s the best feeling when you know your pet is doing well. 10 out of 10. Would recommend.”
“My little boy loved daycare at Heather and Spencer's. He romped with her poodles, took a nice snooze, and had kisses galore for Heather. Already booked our next play date.”
About: I have been working at a Pet Resort for over a 2 years. I work at Neffsville Veterinary Clinic. I have two dogs of my own. I enjoy caring for dogs and playing with them and or just relaxing with them. I am currently working part-time. 2-4 days a week 6 hour shifts. Meaning more time with pets. I will be having a baby in February! So cat litter is something I cannot handle at this time. When I am there I will take them out as much as they would like. I will feed them the exact time you normally do. I will sleep with them so they know they are not alone. I will take them on daily walks. Or I will do what you are most comfortable with closest to your routine.
About: I've taken care of and have had pets for forty years, and would love to care for yours as well. I grew up raising Labador Retrievers, and have owned cats over the years as well. I've also had the pleasure of caring for and boarding friends' & families' pets, and having them in my home always brings me so much joy!!! We currently don't have any pets so yours will get all the attention! I am currently a stay at home mom who homeschools my teens. I have flexibility in my schedule most days of the week, and would love to care for your pets in my home, or in your home. I offer dog walking and visits to your home, and will take your pet(s) into my home as well. We have a great neighborhood for walking, and I will accomodate your pet's exercise needs.
“Gwendoline is amazing! She is very kind, organized, and nice lady. Jake had a nice and fun day exploring nature in her yard and making new friends, that was perfect! Definitely we will continue to come with her. We totally recommend her 100% 🩵😊 Many thanks🙏🏽”
“Stacy was awesome! Cappy had a great first stay with her and her family. She was very attentive to his needs and communicated with me about how he was doing! Cappy will definitely be staying with Stacy again!”
About: Animals have always been my world. As an only child, my pets were my very first best friends, teaching me early on how deep the bond between humans and animals truly is. For 35 of my 40 years, I have never been without a furry companion.Aside from being a happy wife of 25 years, my absolute biggest joy in life was raising my three daughters alongside a constant, loving flock of family pets. Now that my girls are all adults, I am dedicating my time and heart to expanding my pet care circle.Over decades of pet ownership, I have developed a deep expertise in handling a wide variety of animal personalities, ages, and medical needs. I am equally skilled at engaging in high-energy playtime with energetic pups as I am providing the patient, specialized care that senior pets and puppies require.This expertise comes from a very personal place. I am the proud pet parent of a handsome Pomchi who manages IVDD (Intervertebral Disc Disease). Caring for his unique daily needs has given me specialized, hands-on experience in medical management, gentle handling, and strict care routines. I understand how to read an animal’s body language, adapt to different temperaments, and provide a safe, tailored environment for pets who require an extra-gentle touch.Honestly, if you ask my family, they might tell you I sometimes love pets more than humans—and they might be right! Cats and dogs offer a pure, uncomplicated love, and I mirror that right back to them. I know how heavy it feels to leave your babies with someone else. When your dogs or cats are with me, they become a true extension of our family, receiving the exact same unconditional love, professional attentiveness, and spoiling that my own pets enjoy. Because my children are grown, my days are completely open and focused on the home. I do work full-time remotely, but my job provides immense flexibility. I am not tied to a rigid desk setup; rather, my schedule allows me to step away at a moment's notice to tend to animal needs, monitor playtime, or provide constant, frequent potty breaks throughout the day. Pet care seamlessly integrates into my workday.My days are naturally structured around consistent, high-quality care:Morning Structure: Early morning potty breaks, fresh water refills, and structured breakfast times. This is also when I administer any morning medications or specific physical therapy routines before I log into work.Active & Attentive Afternoons: While I work, your pet is right by my side. Mid-day is reserved for tailored care. For high-energy guests, that means dedicated backyard playtime and quick brain games between my tasks. For puppies, seniors, or special-needs pets like my IVDD Pomchi, this time is focused on gentle companionship, scheduled rest, and closely supervised, frequent potty intervals.Evening Wind-Down: A reliable dinner schedule followed by relaxing, low-stress evening cuddles. I perform thorough wellness and comfort checks on all animals before bedtime.Since I manage a strict care routine for my own pup while working, I am incredibly time-disciplined. Whether your pet needs a yard break every hour, strict medication intervals, or just a constant, reassuring human presence while you are away, my remote work setup gives me the perfect flexibility to provide it. Because I work full-time remotely with excellent schedule flexibility, my care philosophy is centered on constant supervision, emotional comfort, and strict routine adherence—whether your pet is staying under my roof or I am visiting yours.Here is how I tailor my care to each environment:🏡 In My Home (Boarding & Daycare)Spacious Outdoor Areas: I am fortunate to have a large front and backyard, giving your pets plenty of secure outdoor space to sniff, stretch their legs, and burn off energy throughout the day.A Safe Environment: Inside, my home is set up to handle a variety of animal needs. Because I care for my own handsome Pomchi with IVDD, my space is highly optimized for safety, gentle movement, and comfort.Constant Companionship: Since I work from home, your pet will never be left alone for long stretches. They will spend the day right by my side, enjoying free reign of the common areas, frequent lap snugs, or resting comfortably in a designated quiet space.Frequent Potty & Play Breaks: My flexible schedule allows me to step away at a moment's notice. High-energy dogs get frequent, supervised yard play sessions, while puppies or seniors get the constant, hourly potty breaks they require.🚗 In Your Home (House Sitting & Drop-In Visits)Respecting Their Safe Space: I understand that many pets (especially cats or senior dogs) feel most secure in their own environment. When I care for pets in your home, my top priority is maintaining their exact comfort zones, favorite sleeping spots, and hidden nooks.Flawless Routine Replication: I treat your house rules as law. I map out your exact feeding times, specific walking routes, and medication schedules. Because I am used to managing strict medical and physical routines for my own dog, you can trust that your pet's schedule will not miss a beat.Remote Work Mobility: For overnight house sitting, I bring my remote work setup with me. This means your pet still gets the benefit of a constant human presence, mid-day companionship, and frequent attention without me having to leave them alone for an 8-hour workday.Home Security & Updates: I treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping it clean and secure. You will receive consistent updates, detailed notes, and plenty of photos so you have total peace of mind while you are away.

“Julie did a an awesome job. We just moved to a new area, so we were worried about finding the right person for chloe. Julie did a great job of communicating and letting us know how chloe was doing. We would definitely use Julie again. We found the right person for our pup!”
“Wonderful experience. Lucy has found her new home away from home. Bentley is also to be admired. He was waiting at the front door to welcome Lucy into his territory in a most friendly, " I Love You Lucy" manner.”
“Courtney saved us from a last minute dog day care request. She sent me all the pictures of Dharmi having su much fun. Thank you Courtney for be so flexible, friendly and kind with my senior dog Dharmi. 🥰”

Pet sitting fits perfectly into my lifestyle as a retired individual with a flexible schedule and a genuine love for animals. Without the demands of a 9-to-5 job, I have the time and energy to provide dedicated, one-on-one care to pets in a calm and comfortable environment. Whether it’s daily check-ins, overnight stays, or long walks, I’m able to adjust to your pet’s routine and needs — and I truly enjoy the companionship they bring into my life. For me, this isn’t just a side job — it’s a meaningful way to stay active, helpful, and connected to the community. Some pets are happiest in their own surroundings — and I’m happy to come to them. I offer drop-in visits, walks, or extended stays depending on your needs. While you're away, I’ll keep your pet’s routine consistent and provide updates, photos, and peace of mind. I respect your home and your pet’s habits and will treat both with the same care and responsibility I’d expect for my own.

About: Hi! I’m 20 years old and have loved animals my whole life. I currently have a 3-year-old pitbull, 2-year-old rat, and a 7-year-old horse, and I’ve been riding horses for as long as I can remember.

About: Hi, I’m Rachel! I am so excited about the opportunity to meet your pups and give them love and attention while you’re away! Everyone who knows me knows me as THE dog lover and haven’t met a dog I don’t love. I even have an Instagram account dedicated to all the adorable dogs I meet! I'd love to feature your dog there if that is okay with you!

About: I have taken care of dogs in one way or another for most of my life. I have had a pet, either a dog, cat, hamster or a horse all of my life. A couple of years ago I started sitting for friends pets and the last six months of last year I worked for a couple who ran a pet sitting business. I did dog walking, cat feeding and care, and some overnight visits. I am not an expert trainer but I went through all the puppy classes with my border collie and spent a couple of years training for agility. I am semi retired so I have a very flexible schedule. I work at home on my online business. I can easily accommodate pet sitting visits round my schedule. I am very cautious when taking care of other peoples pets because I know how important they are to their families. My own dog is a treasured part of our family.

I would love to come play with/ walk your pup, or check in on the cats, top off any food or water, what ever the need is. I’m currently very available all day, and can come by to walk/play with your pup, or pop in on a cat to give it some attention. Even if it’s just to fill up a water bowl. I have had pets all my life, dogs and cats. Currently have a cat, Mrs. Pizza, a calico cat. I a travel across the US as a healthcare professional, and my cat comes with me. We have been to 25 states!

“Kristin and Jeremy were amazing with Moxxie! Kristin provided thoughtful updates and adorable pictures while we were away, and it was clear she was in great hands. She came home clean, happy, and completely worn out (in the best way). Highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring, attentive sitters! We couldn’t have asked for better care and would absolutely book with them again.”
“10 Stars for Betsy and Ron who provide the best home away from home for our Coco! We're so happy to have had her there multiple times now, so she knows that this is her happy place when we are away. So many thanks to them for the field trips, the walks, the play and the love they give her!”
“Absolutely wonderful pet care! Tanya and David were extremely accommodating to our two large dogs (rottweiler, belgian malinois). They have specialized diets that werent an issue and we received updates throughout our entire trip. You could tell they really care about your fur buddy just as much as you do. Definitely will be rebooking in the future.”
“Kaylee was great with communication. Ans before Cooper's stay, she allowed us to have a meet and greet. During our travel she sent photos of our little guy that showed he was getting lots of attention. We will use her care again.”
“Michael and family were great! He was very responsive and checked in every day. You could tell he cared for my fur baby and took great care of her. He listened to her routine and also spoiled her with lots of snuggles and attention. I’m not sure she actually wanted to come home! I would 100% recommend Michael- and I will be sending my fur baby to daycare camp with him again!”
“Donna is wonderful, and our Sadie loved her and her whole family. I got to see pics everyday, had lots of communication and knew Sadie couldn’t be getting more love and attention. It’s so wonderful to know I have a loving home for our girl when we need to leave her I really can’t say enough about Donna. I would recommend to anyone who has a hard time leaving their furry baby! There couldn’t be a better place!”
About: Hi! My name is Vera, and caring for dogs is something I truly enjoy. I know every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. When your dog stays with me, they’ll become part of the family not just another pet. I provide a calm, clean, loving home where they can relax, play, and receive plenty of one on one attention. Although I don’t have a fenced yard, I live in a beautiful, quiet, dog friendly community with plenty of sidewalks, walking paths, and green spaces. I love taking dogs on regular walks so they can get fresh air, exercise, and enjoy exploring the neighborhood safely on a leash. What you can expect: 🐾 A safe, loving home environment 🐾 Multiple walks and potty breaks throughout the day 🐾 Plenty of playtime, affection, and companionship 🐾 Care tailored to your dog’s routine, diet, and any special needs 🐾 Daily photo and video updates so you always know how your furry family member is doing I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog. I’ll treat your pet with the same kindness, patience, and love that I would want for my own. I look forward to meeting you and giving your dog a home away from home! 🐶❤️ I’m available throughout the week and can provide your dog with plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, and daily walks. I keep a flexible schedule, allowing me to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable, safe, and right at home while you’re away. Your dog’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I live in a quiet, pet friendly community with beautiful sidewalks and walking paths that are perfect for safe, leashed walks. I provide frequent potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I’ll carefully follow your dog’s feeding schedule, medication instructions, and any special care they need. My goal is to create a calm, clean, loving environment where every dog feels like part of the family. I also send regular photo and video updates, so you’ll always know your furry friend is happy and well cared for.
“Charissa, Shawn and family, provided EXCEPTIONAL care for our boy. He had such a great time that all he wanted to do was nap when he got home. (Which is fantastic as he is a high energy boy!) They had to navigate losing power to a horrible storm and yet still kept him safe and cool and provided updates as they could. It really felt like leaving him with family! 10/10 will book again!”
“Our dogs stay with Danielle and Bri was great! They took great care of our dog and even gave him a bath after a fun day playing outside at their beautiful homestead. It was peace of mind having a meet and greet before his week long stay but he joined their pack right away. Great communication and wonderful people.”
“Very thankful for Beth's flexibility! She was able to watch my dog at her house (for the second time) when I had to go on a quick work trip with only a few days notice. She also sent me pictures of my dog to let me know that my dog was having fun!”
“We had a great experience with Andrew and Chelsea! They took fantastic care of my dog and provided updates on him throughout my time away. He was a happy pup when I picked him up! I highly recommend!”
“Courtney and her family were wonderful sitters and took great care of my Norman! I received pictures and updates on how he did for the two nights he stayed with them. Very sweet people and I would highly recommend. 😊👍”
“Angelita is 10/10! Her care of our Boston terrier was superb. Communications around our reservation was seamless and pleasant. When our travel was delayed, Angelita was flexible with our drop off time - and pick up time. The outdoor space is perfect for pets and there were a few other puppies for Lucky to play with! We saw multiple pictures of her over the 24 hours we were away. When we picked Lucky up, Angelita even had a gift baggy for us!! She had disinfected our dogs bed and washed her bowls. You can’t ask for better than Angelita. Your pet will be in great hands.”
“Rebecca was kind, friendly, responsive, and very attentive. She made me feel completely at ease and took great care of Lucky. She also kindly accommodated a last minute request to watch Lucky again the following day. Thank you Rebecca!”
“Cynthia was wonderful with our dog Finn, and this was our first time using a sitter. Finn is very shy around new people, so we weren't sure how he'd do, but he settled in at her place and seemed comfortable the whole time. Her communication was excellent from start to finish, with updates that put us at ease while we were away. Everything went smoothly and we had no issues at all. We'd happily book Cynthia again and recommend her to anyone whose dog needs a little extra patience.”
“Anna was the perfect match for our dog. This was our first time using Rover, so we were a little nervous. Anna communicated throughout the entire stay and kept us updated with pictures. Our pup was loved and cared for as if she was part of Anna’s family. We are so thankful for Anna and would recommend for others.”
“It was the first time we leave our dog here in the Usa...and we couldn't choose better!! Vicky and all her family were amazing with Hope...she sent us a lot of photos and video...and kept us updated with everything they did during the day...so we could enjoy our trip at best!!”
“Julie and her husband are great dog sitters! Julie responded quickly to me and sent lots of pictures while my dog was with them. They have a beautiful fenced in back yard. I would recommend them to my friends anytime!!”
