“Jeanette, you are truly an amazing person! Your care for my dog son and other pets exceeds all expectations. The way you tend to their needs is so heartfelt. I especially loved receiving the pictures and videos you sent; they brought a huge smile to my face and reassured me that my dog son was in great hands. Thank you so much for everything you do! I highly recommend your services to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”
“Hanna and her family cared for our two dogs while we went away for the week. I consider myself an overbearing dog mom and I felt completely at ease knowing they were in the care of Hanna! She was very responsive when I reached out to her from the beginning. It was fun to watch them on her videos she posted on her social media account! Our dogs came home happy and wore out from having the best time in Hanna’s care! I will 100% use them again and will send all my dog parents friends her way !”

Sam was excellent with our 15+ year old Yorkie. It was our first time using her to watch Corey and more than once we laughed out loud with the photos she sent during his stay... a nature walk from the comfort of a stroller, chilling in a new favorite spot... Was great knowing he was well cared for over the weekend. A huge thank you!
Zaida was amazing and made me feel at ease having to leave Prince with her for 5 days. She is great with animals and my dog really likes her. She kept me updated and sent pictures. She also kept him busy and added a tracker so I could see where he was. I would definitely recommend her.
