3. Marianna Z.
“I recently had the opportunity to use Marianna for my pet, and I am pleased to share my experience with fellow pet owners seeking a reliable and caring service for their dogs. From the initial contact to the final pickup, my experience with Marianna was nothing short of exceptional. Her genuine affection for my girls was evident in their interactions. Mari was professional, knowledgeable, and, most importantly, communicated regularly with updates and photos, which eased my mind while I was away. Our girls returned home happy, healthy, and clearly well-cared for, which speaks volumes. I wholeheartedly recommend Marianna to anyone in need of dog-sitting services. Her commitment to providing the highest level of care, coupled with her compassion, makes Marianna a top choice for pet owners who want the best for their furry family members.”

Her kind and patient nature makes her perfect to care for anyone's animals. She is a reliable and responsible person, someone I have rightfully trusted to take care of my fur babies. There is no better option then Emma!”

“Cindy boarded my dog for a week and did an amazing job. My dog can be anxious and not always the easiest to deal with, but he had a great week and was treated like a member of the family. Cindy took him for several walks daily, played with him all the time and sent tons of pictures and videos. I can’t recommend her enough!”

“Lawrencia and her dog, Duke, made sure our dog, Mina, had a great time while we were out of town for the night! This was our first time using Rover over a traditional boarding facility, and I don't think we'll ever go back. This was way more personal, and Mina loved making a new friend who matches her high energy level! They were great and we plan to use them again this weekend! Thanks for taking great care of our girl!”
