“Kelly is amazing!! When we found her, we were looking for a pet sitter on short notice. She was so understanding and accommodating. She took her time in allowing our dog to warm up to her at their meet and greet, and also on the drop-in visits. She provides fast communication and the best photo updates!! Not only does she do the essential duties of pet sitting, she takes time to play and cuddle with them so they don’t feel lonely while their family is away. “Aunt Kelly” is highly recommended and will definitely be used again!!!”

Kayla L.
“I’ve known Kayla for 10+ years. She has always been a wonderful friend who would do anything for anyone. She’s taken on the role of dog mom with enthusiasm and heart. She’s a nurse by trade, which empowers her to do research to make decisions related to the care and keeping of her own dog, and I would anticipate that she would do the same for any dog in her care. She is very loving, friendly, ans cheerful always. Any dog in her care would be so lucky to have her looking out for them.”

Haley W.
“Haley watched my black lab and my Yorkie for the 2 weeks I was out of town for work and it was amazing. She sent me a ton of pictures and videos since I was a little nervous leaving them for so long. She took them on walks to local trails and gave some flea meds to my puppy. She is so sweet and gentle with the animals that I always go to her when I leave town. She's a fast replyer which I loved when I was away and is always on time.”

Madison H.
“Madison has house sat and watched our three Rottweilers on multiple occasions. We’ve had trouble keeping good pet sitters since our pups are very active, but Madison has been the best sitter we’ve had! Our dogs absolutely adore her.

I would definitely recommend her if you need someone to watch your pets!”
