“We had a recurring booking with Andrea from January - May of this year, and she was great. Not only does our dog love her, but Andrea is reliable, always there when she says she will be there, and very flexible and accommodating with our schedules. We look forward to booking Andrea again in the future. Thank you, Andrea.”

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
