11. Kyle B.
“Whenever my wife and I go away on a trip, I know we can always count on Kyle to do a fantastic job with our two dogs. I've used him multiple times and he is the best of the best. Kyle has grown up with dogs his entire life and knows exactly how to love and care for each pup like its his own - big or small. When we ask Kyle to dog sit for us, he will do everything that we request for him to do and more. My wife and I always return to a house that is the way we left it and our dogs are always very happy once we walk through the door. It's not just another job for Kyle, he genuinely has a love for dogs and loves to be around them. Our dogs absolutely love him and I always recommend him to anybody that needs a dog sitter.”
