“Ivan was awesome! He loves dogs and really gives your dog tons of attention! Loved the photos and videos he sent of our dog, too! Thank you!”
“Emily is an amazing pet sitter! My 2 pups absolutely loved staying at her house. One of the dogs is part chihuahua and is extremely shy. She was cuddling with Emily on day two....which is a miracle. It normally takes her a week or more to warm up to people. I have tried multiple sitters that are ok but Emily is top notch!”
“Great people!”
“Taylor and family were so good to our babies. This was the first time we had ever utilized a service like this and it was such a good experience, especially knowing what great hands they were in. Taylor sent us updates and fun photos every so often which made us smile and happy, seeing they were having fun. We already plan on rebooking very soon. Highly recommend Taylor.”
“Super friendly and flexible! She kept me updated and included videos and pictures, which were much appreciated. I hope to be able to work with her again in the future. :)”
