“Katya is excellent! She provided a meet-and-greet and a one-day daycare in advance of a 12-day dog-sitting to acclimate my doggie, Luna. Katya sent daily updates including photos and videos. She administered ear cleaning and ear medication due to a last-minute ear infection. She accommodated Luna's convoluted feeding regimen. And Katya's mother provided hours and hours of attention. I was a little hurt that Luna didn't seem too excited to see me. You cannot find a better dog-sitter!”

“I recently had Laura watch my 100 lb Goldendoodle, Bogey, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the moment I picked him up, it was clear he had an amazing time—he didn’t even want to leave! Laura was fantastic about keeping me updated with daily pictures and videos, which really put my mind at ease. You could see in every photo that Bogey was happy, relaxed, and having a blast. Laura clearly knows how to make dogs feel loved and cared for. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter!”
