“Keerie was a dream! She was prompt and very understanding about my dog’s health conditions. Was able to keep me updated and sent plenty of pics to keep my mind at ease while I was out of town. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog the same way you would, book this gal!”

She’s been watching other’s pets in her neighborhood since she was a young girl. She currently owns 3 dogs and 3 cats. She’s owned her own home cleaning business for the past 18 years.

There is no one I trust more to watch my sweet boy when I cannot.”
