“ren took great care of my very energetic dog. i felt totally comfortable and received several updates throughout the day. thank you SO much for taking such good care of my girl 🌸”
2. Ariel R.
“I’m so lucky I found Ariel. She is so skilled and confident and somehow she got my very selective pit bulls to like and listen to her within hours of meeting them! Her knowledge of dog behavior and ability to control them was apparent literally 5 minutes after she walked into my house. I give her a 10 out of 5 stars! She exceeded every expectation I had and I believe this the start of a long relationship. I can finally relax enough to take a real vacation, thanks to Ariel.”

19. Nicole S.
“We enlisted Nicole to look after our 6-month year-old puppy, Favor and cat Emerald while we were out of town for two weeks. We were particularly nervous about hiring a new sitter with the puppy in tow. Referred by a colleague, Nicole was the most professional pet-sitter thus far. Not only is she professional — she truly enjoys what she does. Each day away, our pets were engaged, nurtured and didn’t miss a beat. We couldn’t recommend her enough.”
