“Wendy is the best. She has watched or dog Timmy many times now and is so great with him. She truly is passionate about dogs and goes above and beyond when caring for them. She is also very flexible with drop off and pick up times. She sent us photos and video each day to ensure we knew Timmy was doing well. We are so thankful we found Wendy!”
“Sasha was great. Would totally hire again. Good communication and keep our fur baby happy even though she was home sick and not use to being around larger dogs. Lots of attention as given.”
“Wow, can not say enough about Leah and her family! So professional and knowledgeable, gave me updates, and photos! Their dog was bigger than our puppy and they were very professional keeping them separated most of the time but let them have a little play together time after draining the bigger dog energy a bit, which again, just speaks to how well they know dog behavior! Absolutely 💯 will utilize Leah again in the future for pup sitting!”
“Jolene is so wonderful and patient with our rescue Kara who is quite timid and anxious. Thank you so much for making accommodations for her unique situation each time we have to go away.”
