I needed to go away and have 6 dogs. Renate was a life saver for me and my dogs. I was so comfortable with her immediately and I could see she understood my dogs ways right away. She was honest, reliable, confident, organised, efficient and walked all my 6 dogs every day...well 5 as one of my dogs is very afraid of people and we didn't want to rock the boat. But my scared dog still responded positively to her. The house was well taken care of and clean upon my return. I would really appreciate if she would come to doggie sit again. I recommend her 150%
