“Absolutely fantastic sitter. Her and her family took amazing care of my girls. She kept me updated daily and even sent me pictures of all the adventures they had. My dogs are my only family and finding someone to care for them in my absence is very stressful. Elisa took all the stress away and showed my girls all the love I would have. Would 1000% recommend to anyone that is looking for a loving home for their fur babies. Thank you Elisa! I will be booking again soon”

Their other dog was a sweetie and got along with Hans perfectly. We will definitely book again when we have to head out of town next time.”
