Vera was excellent! Really took care of my dog Maggie! Would hire her again and recommend her to anyone. Very responsive and attentive.
Vera recently watched my 8 year old golden retriever and my 8 month old English bulldog puppy. They both absolutely LOVED her. My puppy can be a bit timid at times and Vera not only was very patient with her, but worked to help train her, while constantly reassuring and loving on her. Normally I worry when I leave my pups-(they're my babies), but with Vera there with them I didn’t have any concerns or guilt. She even let my puppy sleep in bed with her! She also kept me updated with pictures constantly, however it was clear from the start how much she cares about the animals she watches, I wouldn’t have even needed pictures! I saw nothing but genuine love for them in all of her interactions. She is fabulous and we will definitely be using her for all of our future vacations!
Vera has watched my 2 old dogs several times. One of my dogs, Sarah, a rescue dog, is terrified of people. Vera came to my home with treats the first time she met with the dogs. She got down on the floor, at Sarah's level, and stayed there until Sarah was no longer afraid. Since Sarah feels more comfortable in her own home, Vera agreed to come by twice daily, morning and night. She visited with the dogs, walked them and bought them extra treats when mine ran out. She is a lovely woman and she really loves my dogs. More importantly, my dogs love her! I am truly thankful that I found her!
