Kendall + Darbie are great! We set up a meet and greet for Phineas and as soon I got there I knew they would be a great fit for him. Throughout his stay they were consistent with spending updates and photos of Phineas. I trusted them completely and would 100% recommend them as your dogs babysitter!

Kayla set my mind at ease. My Chihuahua is 18 and on meds. She is very good about everything! Her children are helpful too. I can't say enough of how great she is. My dog was so calm and taken care of as one of her own pets.

I can't say enough WONDERFUL things about this WONDERFUL COUPLE. I was REALLY NERVOUS about leaving my Precious Archie. I went for a meet and greet, and I knew RIGHT away after meeting them that God answered my prayers. Tom and Nikki made me Feel Extremely comfortable and helped me feel at ease knowing that he was in Such Great Hands. Archie received LOTS OF LOVE AND SNUGGLES. I LOVED ALL OF THE WONDERFUL PICTURES AND VIDEOS that they share. SUCH A WONDERFUL COUPLE. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE. Thank you, Tom and Nikki for taking such AMAZING CARE of my Precious Archie. 🥰

Becky was awesome! I reached out last minute and was thrilled she was available and even able to accommodate our change in pick- up time. She sent pictures of our dog, which is always appreciated to see how he is doing! Definitely recommend her and will reach out to Becky next time we are in need ?!

Eliot was awesome, and will be our go to guy from now on. Pepper is a sweetheart but can be a handful, and he was totally unphased by Pepper’s quirks. He met up with us ahead of time to introduce our two dogs and was communicative throughout the weekend that we were away. I’d recommend Eliot to anybody!

Bailey was great! I think she really enjoyed our cat SJ. Her promos are mostly about dogs but she's clearly a cat person too. We'd definitely do this again.

He is detail-oriented, reliable, trustworthy, and is an experienced animal caretaker.

Annette is a dedicated and doting dog mom and sitter. She's kept my dog TJ several times and he always come home happy and worn out from his play date with his BFF, Bodhi. In fact, I'm not sure TJ wouldn't rather stay with Annette most times when I come to pick him up! Her home is friendly and open to dogs, having a fenced in yard and close to a dog park, if that interests you. I trust Annette implicitly with my dogs and know they're in good hands while I'm away.

About: I am originally from England and currently a student here in Athens! My family have always been animal loves and I was fortunate enough to have a variety of animals growing up from dogs, cats, birds and gerbils! I currently have two cats and regularly dog sit and walk for my father-in-law who has a German Shepherd mix and an American bulldog mix! My partner is also animal crazy and was brought up basically on a farm with more animals then could ever be imagined from dogs to deers to goats. I have also helped out at dog sanctuaries in Greece and enjoy just being around animals. If you have any questions please feel free to message! I've recently just moved to the US so I have plenty of free time while I settle and I don't think there is any better way to settle in than with some animals! I have two dog-friendly indoor cats that mind their own business. I have a great dog park near my home I enjoy going on long walks and hikes too if your dog enjoys that! I have a crate if that is required for your pet

Raegan has been a caregiver and animal lover her entire life. During her lifetime, we have had a zoo at our home from all the pets she has lovingly taken in. She prays for a dog and one shows up the next day. She dreams of a cat and, guess what, one shows up a few days later out of nowhere. She loves animals and they love her. She is a pre-vet student and is very responsible and reliable. I would trust her to care for my pets over anyone else I know.
