“We needed a dog sitter at the last minute for our 4 large dogs for a weekend and Emma responded quickly and was able to come over and meet the dogs later that day, despite the short notice. They immediately took to her and acted like she was part of the pack. Emma took great care of them and was very communicative throughout the weekend, writing us very detailed visit descriptions and sending lots of pictures. She made our first time using this service very easy. Would definitely use her to check on or sit for our dogs again.”
