“Bernadette come home worn out! Jennifer did so good with Bernadette...Everyday we received so many updates on her and it made us feel comfortable.”



“We are always so happy to be able to leave our girl with Bobbi and Brian! She gets so excited to see them and their dogs every time and we can relax knowing she’s well taken care of.”


“I couldn’t be happier with the care and attention my dog received from Christianna & Mary. From the moment we met, I knew my dog was in great hands. They were incredibly responsible and kept me updated with pictures and messages throughout the day. My dog was calm, happy, and excited when I returned, which is a huge relief. I highly recommend Christianna & Mary to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter for their furry friend!”


“I don’t think my dogs wanted to come home after staying with Susy. She went above and beyond to ensure they were well cared for and happy. I trust her implicitly and will use her again the next time I leave town.”


“Our pup had so much fun staying with Charles! She had lots of attention, cuddles, and playtime with puppy pals. I love that she wasn't put in a kennel and was allowed to sleep in a home environment.”



“I just wanted to take a moment to share my fantastic experience with Melissa, who took care of my dog, Sky. From the get-go, it was clear that Melissa is an absolute dog lover! When I dropped Sky off, she instantly made me feel at ease. You can tell she really knows what she’s doing. Melissa has three dogs of her own, and they were all friendly and welcoming. It didn’t take long for Sky to fit right in and start playing with them. I loved how well they got along; it was a great relief to see my pup so happy and engaged with other dogs. When I picked Sky up, she was exhausted but so joyful! It was obvious she had an awesome time with Melissa and her dogs. I couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver for my furry friend. I highly recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a loving and safe place for their pets. Thanks, Melissa! You truly made Sky’s day! 🐾”
