“Ciara was awesome. I felt comfortable overseas knowing Freya was in good hands. Ciara took care of everything and even developed a bond with Freya. I'd be excited to use Ciara again in the future.”
“We have used Kumiko on a couple occasions to drop in our Boston Terrier crew. Kumiko is quick to respond, very friendly, and great with communication. She makes sure to address any of our concerns and sends lots of photos of the pups when she stops by. Most recently she was great with our 10wk old puppy who we had only had a few days. Always great to have someone close by who can take good care of our pack---definitely recommend Kumiko.”
“Katelyn took great care of our cats. She went above and beyond making sure the house was taken care of too! Her updates were appreciated. We will definitely use her again if she is available.”

“Keely was great and did amazing with Ruby. This was just a drop in for her to get to know her for future jobs. Keely was very thorough in asking what her needs are and making sure she was prepared. Looking forward to having her watch Ruby in the future.”

About: I have had my own dog for 14 years and walked neighbors dogs when I was growing up. Helped walk/watch friends dogs throughout college when they would be traveling. I work each week day but can watch/walk a dog morning, Lunch time, and post work. I also work close to home and can come let them out multiple times. I have a fenced in backyard with lots of grass that my dog loves playing fetch and taking a nap in the sun during the summer
“Valerie was absolutely phenomenal. She helped out when I was in a last minute pitch, and couldn’t have been nicer and easier to communicate with even with my last minute request and with delayed responses on my end due to traveling. She also took the sweetest pictures of my two pups and took wonderful notes about what they did while she was with them. Couldn’t be happier, thank you Valerie! I would recommend this sitter to anyone :)”
