Kyle has been great! Easy to communicate with, extremely helpful, flexible with my ever changing travel schedule, and of course wonderful with my elderly dogs. I’ve booked with him multiple times and will continue to do so in the future.

Alex was great with the dogs and was responsive to our messages. Was very impressed that he came over for a meet and greet and was taking notes and asking questions. Left the home so clean we couldn't even tell someone had been there. Highly recommend

Giselle is amazing!! We've tried multiple dog sitters and multiple apps and she by far exceeded our expectations! She is sweet and updates us on the pups. She cared for our old pup while he was having some problems and had no complaints from neighbors either. Definitely use her for your dog needs

Amber was great with our pup Cleo. Cleo is very sweet but she takes a bit of time opening up to someone new. Amber came in and immediately made her feel comfortable and by the end of night one Cleo and amber were cuddling up together on the couch. She gave medications perfectly and left our house very clean. I was able to relax on my vacation knowing Cleo was happy and in great hands! We will definitely be using her again.

Rachel was amazing! She helped with our dogs while we were gone for the weekend, and both dogs (and our cat) loved her and were so excited to see her. She stayed in communication with us the entire weekend and sent great pictures with updates. She followed all the instructions we left. Both dogs have terrible separation anxiety, but they didn’t seem to miss a beat while we were gone. Would definitely recommend!

Amanda was fantastic. I feel secure in leaving her with my dogs. She followed their schedule and gave them a lot of love and attention. My home was just as I left it when I returned. She is intelligent, personable, and dependable. I plan to use her for my trip in September. I can now go on my cruise knowing everything will be okay at home. I highly recommend her.

JP was amazing. She took great care of our little dog. She communicated with us throughout our time away sending pictures of our dog. Abbey, our little chihuahua, actually seemed to miss her when we were back home. That says a lot! We would not hesitate to recommend Jp, and will book her again in the future.

Erin was the best! We felt completely comfortable with her from the moment we met. We were nervous about leaving our sweet pups with someone new, but her warm energy and detailed questions quickly put us at ease. She was a great communicator, consistently keeping us informed with updates and photos. Erin was very accommodating, adapting to our schedules and paying close attention to our pups’ specific needs. I would definitely recommend Erin to anyone looking for a dependable and caring person to look after their pets while away!

About: I’ve been a dog lover for as long as I can remember! I grew up with a mom who worked in the Richmond Animal Shelter & a house full of adopted animals. From my sisters spoiled Pibble baby to my neighbors sweet little Yorkie, I’ve been their go to sitter/walker to watch their babies because they know I’ll love on them like my own fur babies 💕 I love to do Meet & Greets prior to your baby’s walk/drop-in if feasible. Coko & I are available Saturdays & Sundays for Meet & Greets! I am a mom of 3 & we have a Shih-poo named Coko. My babies have all grown up around family dogs and understand to be gentle with fur babies. Our neighborhood is very dog friendly so I’m sure we’ll meet a friend or two on ours walks.
