“I was at work very late last night, and my dog was having a panic attack in her crate. I asked multiple people if they would be willing to go see her and spend some time with her to help her calm down, and she responded immediately when I asked her. She played with her, took her out for a walk and sat with her for a little while, so I know that Sydnee is a loving and caring dog sitter.”

“Victoria took amazing care of our girls while we were away! Our dogs can be nervous around new people, especially when they come into our home but our girls warmed up to Victoria so quickly!
