“Nelly has a convenient and cute apartment more than half dedicated to the furry friends she takes of and clearly adores. Every day for 8 days she sent me 1-2 photos/videos on walks, playing, resting, even giving flea/tick meds. She is lovely, quick to respond on text, very communicative about where she’ll be throughout the day, conscientious and responsible. Highly recommend.”

17. Cristhian L.

“I recently had the pleasure of having Cristhian care for my dog, Blaze, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Cristhian went above and beyond in every aspect of her care. She was incredibly loving and Blaze was clearly affectionate towards her in return. Throughout the entire time, Cristhian kept me updated with frequent pictures and messages, which gave me great peace of mind. When Blaze wasn’t eating, she didn’t hesitate to go the extra mile by buying him wet food to encourage him to eat. Her dedication didn’t stop there; she continuously played with Blaze using all the toys she had, keeping him entertained and happy as if he were her own dog. Cristhian was also incredibly flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, accommodating our unexpected travel delays without any issues. Her care exceeded all my expectations. She truly loved Blaze and it showed in every interaction. She even followed up on him after he left. I will definitely be choosing Cristhian again the next time I need a dog sitter. Highly recommend!”
