“I had 2 dog sitters cancel on me last minute and Megan came through in a pinch! She was able to even pick up some meds from the vet while we were away. I was upset our previous sitters bailed on us but it all worked out for the best because Megan did a great job!”

4. Anna Marie B.
“Anna Marie is a wonderful pet sitter! She is always here on time to take care of our animals. She truly does love my animals, as they receive a lot of play time, and cuddle time. She gives them their medications, brushes them, and even trims toenails if needed. I love that she will call or text me as soon as I have any questions about her availability, in return if she has any questions about my pets she doesn't hesitate to ask. I recommend Anna Marie to all of my friends!”
