17. Ashton & Alexandra "Sasha" W.
“Ashton watched my dog Moose for a full day including overnight and Moose had the best time. Moose took to her very quickly after meeting and almost immediately sat in her lap which isn’t her tendency when meeting someone for the first time. While I was away she sent frequent updates with pictures from all their various nature walks and naps in between. I came home to a happy and well exercised pup and now every time we walk past Ashton’s house Moose pulls to go inside.”

“Erin was fantastic with our puppy! It’s obvious that she’s really experienced and loves dogs. She was reliable, a fast communicator, and was flexible when I had an unusual schedule. Highly recommend!”
19. Krystle-Jayne & Hanna N.
“I am pleased to provide a reference for Krystle and Hanna, both of whom I have had the pleasure of knowing for nearly a decade. Krystle and I first met while working together at Microsoft, and over the years, she has proven to be an incredibly dependable and responsible individual. Krystle’s reliability extends beyond the workplace. When I adopted my Great Dane, Gatsby, Krystle was by my side throughout the process and has been a loving presence in Gatsby’s life ever since, from his early puppy days to his current size of 180 pounds. Her care and affection for Gatsby have been unwavering. Hanna, in turn, embodies kindness and a genuine caring nature. Like Krystle, she has shown a remarkable ability to provide thoughtful and attentive care, and Gatsby adores her just as much. During my work trips, Krystle and Hanna have kindly stayed at my townhouse to look after Gatsby and the property. Each time I return, I am greeted by a spotless home and a well-cared-for dog. Their attention to detail and dedication ensure that everything is in perfect order, and I am truly grateful for their help. Both Krystle and Hanna are exceptional individuals who exhibit a high level of responsibility and compassion. I wholeheartedly recommend them without reservation.”
20. Matt S.
“It is a great feeling knowing that Matt is watching Lola. Matt sends us updates and photos the whole time. Lola always looks so happy. We know our girl is in good hands with Matt.”
