I would definitely have David watch Strawberry again and recommend him to others.”

Michelle was more than accommodating for a last minute sitting for my pup! It’s clear she loves animals and knows their behaviors well. During our dogs stay, we received lots of updates and pictures. I felt so comfortable with Michelle and will use her again for sitting needs in the future.
Tian is a great dogsitter! Through Harper's stay, he shared videos and photos, gave me updates on her activity, and asked me about her eating pattern to make sure it was normal. Very attentive and communicative with me before and during her stay. Harper seems really comfortable with him as well. I'd happily rebook with Tian!
Krissy was fantastic with June and Brea. Both of them were a bit skittish at first, but she was patient, worked through it, and they ended up having a great time together. She was super responsive and kept me well-updated the entire time. I'd happily book her again and highly recommend her to anyone.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Hawthorne home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Hawthorne.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
