“So thankful once again for Pat and Kamie. They really make traveling without Athena less stressful. I had no worries of her being stuck in a crate for 20 hours of the day. I was updated with concerns and provided pics of all her cuteness. They really make her feel at home…so much so she had to think twice about leaving!!! I’m selfishly hoping Pat and Kamie continue ki”

“Absolutely amazing!!! My Rocko is very particular about the ppl he meets but Tera got him to warm up to her in just a few hours... which if you know Rocko is an amazing accomplishment.

17. Tori L.
“Excellent job!!! Tori went above and beyond to accommodate my irregular schedule. I usually telework. But, I needed to drive to Fort Meade just one day. At first, I tried to use the ones with lots of reviews. But one of them replied the next day. Tori took my pet from 10pm to 10pm. This was the first time my 4 month black lab retriever ever stayed with someone else. He missed me. But he had a good time. When we got home, he quickly went to sleep! So next time you need a dog sitter. Please give Tori a chance, you won’t regret it!!!”
