1. Alexa T.

“Alexa was awesome! She stayed at our house and looked after my two dogs and cat. She did an excellent job! The house was immaculate when I returned. The dogs were well behaved and mellow- it’s like they didn’t even know I was gone. She sent updates every day along with tons of pictures. She took them to the beach and for walks. I highly recommend Alexa! I will definitely be booking with her again next time I go away.”


2. Caitlin S.


“While we were away for a medical procedure, our 15 year old dog became quite ill, requiring lots of attention and complex caregiving — and house cleaning — as well as comforting. Caitlin managed all parts of this VERY difficult booking, which was much more than she bargained for, with competence and grace , and kept her safe and comfortable while we scheduled the Vet and raced home. We were so relieved to have such close and competent attention for our little girl, and grateful for Caitlin‘s grace and confidence at a precarious time. We can’t say enough good about Caitlin and we can’t thank herenough.”
