    Jilesa was amazing to work with! She was very quick with any questions I had and took great care of our puppy while we waited for her. You can tell Jilesa really loves her dogs as she did everything she could in order to make our pup’s delivery as stress free as possible, with regular check ins!

    Jelisa was great to work with. She was responsive and made the process so much easier. We drove in from a state over and she was accommodating of the last minute changes that needed to happen for our meetup. She brought enough items and food to help our Vivi transition in a new environment.
