“Teresa did an amazing job watching our elderly dog, along with our vibrant mini-golden doodle. She made them both feel extremely comfortable; even rearranged our house so our elderly dog could get around easier. Then, she cleaned out any spoiled perishables in the refrigerator and took out the trash- went above and beyond. I would definitely use her again to watch the house and dogs. Thank you Teresa!”
