19. Dawn M.

“We are so happy we found Dawn. This was the first time we have used a dog sitter, so we were maybe a bit over protective on choosing the right one for our puppy. Dawn had so many great reviews that I had to reach out. We had a meet and greet and felt very comfortable with leaving our puppy with Dawn and her family. The reason we were needing a dog sitter was because my husband and I were expecting our first child. She was incredibly flexible with the length of stay as we were unsure of when we would be able to leave the hospital. She kept in touch and sent pictures to ease our minds. We will be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for your fur baby to feel at home while away for theirs. Thanks again Dawn!”


20. Anna W.

“This is the second time Anna has watched my elderly boy and she is so kind and gentle with him. I completely trust her and the doggies in her home with his health and well-being. Would absolutely use Anna and her services time and time again.”
