  • Went out of town for a week and of course wanted to make sure my 2 cats were well looked after.
    I had reached out to Mike (the owner) and he came to do a meet and greet to make sure it was a good fit for both of us. He was a great communicator… (Nextdoor Del Camino Estates)
  • Found older puppy (looks like maybe a Pitbull mix) in area of 64th st and Osborn about 6:45 pm.
    He is not microchipped. If you lost your pet, please let me know. He is very sweet. (Nextdoor Hy-view)
