“Brian is an outstanding sitter! I was in the hospital having a baby and was experiencing so much stress finding a trustworthy person to watch my senior pit bull in my home. He cannot be boarded or crated. My dog has separation anxiety and Brian was able to help calm him and walk him or just hang out at the house with him when he needed a nap. Unexpectedly, my daughter needed to stay in the hospital and Brian was flexible and understanding. You are a life safer. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking great care of my dog-son.”

20. Leah S.
“Leah, having been a pet parent for many years, is one of the best owners any pet could have. Anyone would be beyond lucky to have her be a part of their pet's life. She loves being around any furry friends & will give her whole heart when caring for another's pet. Having lost her sweet dog Dexter recently, I know how much it would mean to her to be able to love all pets that are brought into her life regardless of the circumstance. Having the opportunity to walk people's pets would surely bring Leah great joy.”
