“Danielle was an incredible sitter for my pup, Cricket. Danielle easily scheduled a video call to meet, met us downstairs for the drop-off/pickup, sent pics throughout Cricket's stay, took him to the dog park, and even gave him a bath! I could tell he felt very comfortable with her and her two kitties. Was very glad Cricket had someone to snug with in bed. I will definitely be rebooking with Danielle!”

17. Melissa S.
“Melissa visited Muddy for a drop-in visit. They quickly became best friends. After Muddy took care of a “nature call”, he came back in the house and showed Melissa all of his wonderful toys that his mom and dad buy (mostly, mom). Finally, Muddy went up on the couch and they chilled for a while before Melissa told Muddy it was time for her to leave. He eagerly went back into his crate and was glad that he got a big cookie and a kong to amuse himself with. He said if mom and dad have to leave him, he’d be thrilled to have Melissa come in to see him. Melissa is Muddy-approved!”
