I hate going away. Especially if I can’t take my canine companion Dodger with me! Lucky for us, especially Dodger and his two feline siblings, Frankie and Jonnie, (Frankie is a girl) we found Deb. She’s not kidding around when she says All Life Matters. It really does describe her beliefs and ethics not only with your beloved pets, but with you, your family and our planet as well.

Deb displayed a professionalism seldom seen in the pet-sitting/care business, with insisting on a thorough questionnaire, a pre-visit and requesting information in case of any contingency, such as vet information, meal times, bringing in the mail, food preferences, habits, routines and the emotional makeup of my babies.

Although all of this and more indicates a true professional that I will always turn to when her services are needed, the real or I should say, more important aspect of Deb and her work with animals and their people is her caring and playfulness. Right away, when she asked, “What makes Dodger Happy?” I knew she was the one for us. Questionnaires, information gathering, spare keys, and all the other professional courtesies and details she skillfully employed were great, but, nothing compared to my sense of joy envisioning my boy Dodger playing “tug of war, get the baby and let’s go for a ride”.

So, when I need to go away or go on a vacation and unfortunately cannot bring my best buddy with me, I know when I call All Life Matters, Deb will be there, giving Dodger a better vacation than I am getting. It doesn’t get any better than that.
