Nieves S.
“Hello Rover, Of course with every pet parent our fur babies are our families. We want the best for them and worry if they are well taken care of and safe. We need not worry with Nieves S. As she is a calm, kind, loving person. We had her stay at our house with Abby our boxer. Not only was I at ease and felt confident that my baby girl was in good company with Nieves; She also took care of my house as well. We were abroad for over 3 weeks and she left the house immaculate and Abby obviously missed her company. She is trustworthy and reliable. The saying is true “ our dogs know if you have a good soul”. Nieves S would be a valuable member to your organization. Sincerely Rita Sutton and Abby🐾”
