“Lilli and Zachary were wonderfully responsible care takers for our dog and home. Lilli is a prompt, kind, and excellent communicator. Our meet and greet went well, and I could immediately sense we could trust this nice young couple. They provided wonderful care for our 10 year old dog who had never been left alone before (we always had other dogs and in-home overnight care). Initially our dog was a bit shy, according to Lilli, but she ultimately warmed to them and they became fast friends. Lilli’s reports were detailed complete with pictures. I would highly recommend Lilli and Zachary!”
“Some of the visits were significantly shorter than expected (7-10 minutes). I would have expected that even if they only needed that much time to go out, some extra cuddles and time would would have been spent.”
“Emily was amazing! Our dog is typically skittish of everyone but she loved Emily right away (and so did we!). Our dog is also a little quirky but Emily didn’t mind at all. I would (and will) ask Emily to care for our dog in the future. I can’t say enough good things about how terrific Emily is!”

Ian H.
“Ian has been super helpful with caring for my English Bulldog Skye when I am out of town. Super thankful that he made himself available as I have needed. He genuinely cares for Skye. She is 12 and needs a bit of patience and coaxing to do her business. Ian has helped us with Skye on at least 4 of our last trips. Very thankful for his kindness and dependability.”
