“You could not ask for a more kind, loving sitter/walker then Stefanie R. We will definitely ask her to stay with our pups again. She is good with people as well as dogs. She made us feel safe and relaxed to go away knowing our dogs and our house were on good hands. A++++ Greg”

“I recently had the pleasure of hiring Ruby to care for both of my dogs Bruno and Sophie and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the moment we met it was clear Ruby is a true animal lover was the right person for my dogs. She made sure to follow instructions, took them out for a walk, and played with them. I also trusted Ruby with my home when I returned Bruno and Sophie were happy, healthy, and well cared for and my home was just as I left it. I highly recommend her, she will be my go to girl from now on! Thank You Ruby for taking such great care of my furry babies and my home!”

9. Sidny L.
“I have known Sidny almost all my life, and one thing about her is that she is an animal lover! I had Sidny take care of my cat and mixed poodle for about three weeks for a vacation. She spoiled my babies so much! My cat Cuddles has specific eating times, Sidny sent me pictures of exact feeding time, and with my poodle Henry, she played with him till he he napped (pic was included). My poodle is pretty big 70 pounds plus! and she made sure he was babied. I trust Sidny very much with them because she showed love and responsibility.”
