“Gemma was amazing, she sent us updates and lots of photos throughout her drop-in visits! She was super easy going and it looks like the pups still had a great time without us being home. We will definitely be rebooking with her anytime we’re away”

“Once again, Liza has proved to be the best sitter I could have asked for. I needed a last minute sitter (as Winston has come out of remission and requires insulin again), I reached out to Liza who was able to help me out in a pinch. Her Rover notes are great and detailed, the pictures are adorable. I never have to worry about their wellbeing. 🔟/🔟 Thank you again Liza 😭👌”
