I will definitely use Barbara’s services again.”

6. Alicia R.
“Once again Alicia came through big time for me in such a major way. Had an unfortunate death in the family and had to travel out of town at the last minute and be away for multiple days. While being away my area got in with significant snow and still, Alicia showed up unbothered by the weather to see that my dog was taken care of. What more could I ask for? Alicia is simply amazing!! This was the 2nd time she’s provided care for my pet while I was away and I am looking forward to the next time and time after that! Thank you Alicia!!!”

20. Jamila O.
About: I have over 8 years of experience and became a dog mom myself 5 years ago after I adopted my Cavachon, Alex! I am extremely gentle and will make sure your pup feels right at home. If you prefer for Alex not to be at my home during your pups visit for comfort, we can make it happen! Please let me know in advance so I can arrange accordingly. I can be flexible as my work schedule is hybrid with half my week remote and the other in office. Please message me to discuss your needs and will work with you to accommodate. As a dog mom myself, I have plenty of toys, bowls for food and water, a crate (small dog size), treats (with parent approval, of course!), and allow dogs on couches and beds. There is plenty of greenery, dog park, and open air space in my complex that allow for enjoyable walks!
