“When you have a senior dog you’re going to seek a sitter that is willing to be more attentive and watchful to your dog. Chris immediately caught Lulu’s trust and quickly went to her. Chris listened to our instructions regarding Lulu’s meds; special dietary needs and assistance with the stairs. She sent us photos and you can easily see Lulu’s happy face and comfort. Chris also reported that she ended up sleeping in her own bed and cuddled in the morning. We are extremely happy and grateful to the love and attention she gave our sweet Lulu. We are already booking her in May and feel confident that Lulu is in loving care and will enjoy her stay with Chris.”


“I had a fantastic experience with Courtney! She was going the extra mile to ensure my dog felt at home. I highly recommend her for anyone seeking a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”


About: I’ve had pets my whole life. Cats, dogs, mice, hamsters, snakes, geckos, you name it. I currently have a cat named Ramona and a dog named Sebastian. I’m happy to provide updates and pictures (of your pets) while they’re with me to provide of peace of mind. I always like to get pics while I’m away because I worry so I’m more than happy to send them too! Just let me know if that’s something you’d appreciate. I know I don’t have many reviews yet since I’ve just started taking clients so if it helps to look at our Instagrams while I build rapport feel free! Ramona and Sebastian: @a_cat_and_her_dawg Mine: @brendawg006 I work from home Monday through Friday so I can take dogs on walks during the day unless it’s too hot in which case I’ll do evenings or mornings My dog Sebastian will keep your dog entertained but if he gets annoying I have a spare bedroom that your dog can chill in. I also have a balcony that’s kind of fun for the animals to hang out on.
