“Victoria is a great choice when it comes to choosing a dog sitter. She always takes such care of my doggo. I’m never concerned when I leave him in her care. I know he will be fed, watered, and any other various requests will be met. Victoria is punctual, caring, and loves animals.”
17. Kristen T.
“Kristen and I had the opportunity to watch four dogs for 7 months. We both had to share, feeding them taking them outside, Showing them we love them. One dog needed extra care with meds and cream but she did that more that I did. Kristen actually worked with a animal clinic as a vet assistant so she knows what not to give dogs and to give meds when the dog needed it when they hated the taste. She is a fellow dog mommy to her adorable dog. She is trustworthy, caring and goes above and beyond to making your dog feel at home while your away.”
