Alison is amazing, I have a 12 year old lab who refuses to walk with anyone but me… I planned. a trip and asked Alison to stay at my house.. I had seen her with other dogs in my complex and she came with high recommendations. She cared for Ruby in my home for 10 days and Ruby loved her. People in my complex told me they didn’t think Ruby missed me at all… That is the highest compliment you can give anyone…Alison gave Ruby her medications and kept in touch with me daily since I was out of the country. Fortunately there were no emergencies and things went smoothly… but I am confident that Alison could have handled anything that came up… Alison slept in my house and left it as neat as she found it… I cannot say enough about her… she gets 5 stars from me and Ruby….and by the way, she is as nice as she is competent
