Yay

Elyssa was communicative, timely, calming, and very confident about taking my super excited husky out for a quick walk. She sent updates and Hercules came back very happy and tired just as I was hoping for. I hope to book with her again.

We're so grateful for Jill! She is great with all of our pets and super accommodating. It was cold weather but because our pup insisted (probably tapped his leash), she took him for a walk anyway. We are glad we found her!
