She and her husband took excellent care of my doggo for a weekend while I was away, and I couldn't be more grateful. From the initial meet-and-greet to the regular updates and photos during my trip, Katie showed exceptional professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail. My pup came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-cared for. If you're looking for a reliable, compassionate, and dog-loving sitter, look no further than Katie! I'll definitely be booking with her again for future trips. Five 🐾”
