“Natalia and her family took such amazing care of my pups while I was gone for a long weekend! Both of my pups love kids and had such a good time they didn’t want to leave 😂 We encountered bad weather in the trip back home and she was so flexible and understanding, allowing them to stay an extra night! and the fact that they were with someone around the clock made gave me so much relief since they both are with me all day working remote. 100% recommend and will be coming back to Natalia to sit on my next trip!”
10. Antonio R.
“Antonio came through for us in a pinch over Thanksgiving holiday and we are so grateful! This was Marley’s first time staying with Antonio and from the moment we met him at his grooming salon (which is so nice btw!) we were instantly comfortable. We are helicopter parents and he didn’t bat an eye and was totally understanding of our novel of instructions and requests including her preemptive first aid medicines. We can tell he was very attentive to Marley while we were gone and she got walks and lots of treats and even made a couple of pup friends who he was also babysitting. We got updates and pictures everyday and Marley came home fresh & fluffy (as we took advantage of his grooming service 😃) and happy. Thank you so much Antonio for taking such good care of our Marley!! We would happily recommend him to anyone have have him babysit her again! 🤗”
