Leah did an amazing job watching our miniature pinscher Pedro for 10 days. She is very attentive and strictly adhered to his feeding and medication schedule. Not only did she give him lots and love and cuddles, she kept in touch with multiple daily updates. We definitely recommend her to watch your fur babies.
