She is amazing!”

12. Danielle D.
“We couldn't have asked for a better sitter! She really gave the dogs a lot of extra attention, lots of walks and lots of love... Our very high maintenance dogs loved her, and they are not easy dogs to deal with. Danielle is very sweet and trustworthy she stayed at our house for about a week while we were on our honeymoon, she updated us and sent pictures of the dogs. She was a very clean houseguest! She even vacuumed while she was there and collected the mail for us. She also left us personalized notes about the dogs for when we returned....Without hesitation Danielle will be my first call next time we are in need of a dog sitter.”

“MASHA IS INCREDIBLE! The best dog sitter in Sarasota!!! I have had many sitters and she sets the bar incredibly high. She provides excellent care, I mean EXCELLENT care. She went above and beyond caring for my pup and providing updates. She left my home in better condition than she found it. She came on very short notice and is such a pro it was the most comfortable I have ever felt while being away. I truly truly felt like she cared for him as if he was her own dog. Seriously look no further Masha is the best choice in a dog sitter.”
