“Did a great job with a delay on my part!”
“Pete is truly amazing. We haven't gone away or even done an overnight in over 3 years because of my reservations about letting someone watch our babies. Our baby Elf is high anxiety. He gets very nervous and anxious around new people. Pete did a few meetings just to put my mind at ease. As soon as we met him we knew he was a caring, genuine person and definitely an animal lover. He was very accommodating and always prompt. We were pleasantly surprised with how quickly Elf warmed up to him. Simba showered him with kisses right away. He sent us pics and updates. Our babies absolutely adore him. He played with them and easily gave Elf his meds. He treated them like his own. We will definitely keep using Pete and we're so relieved, grateful and lucky to have found such a kind hearted and dependable person. Elf and Simba can't wait to see him again. Thank you so much for everything.”
“Brianna was a great choice for our pets. She has a calm presence which really helped my timid dog warm up to her in a short amount of time. She was always on time and gave detailed updates and pictures with every visit. My dogs loved her and that gives so much peace of mind while traveling. We will be booking with her again!”
“Daisy did a wonderful job taking care of our dog while we were on vacation. She updated us each day with several pics. She was mindful of the heat and avoided walking her by other dogs.”
“Katie was great for my girls. She answered promptly and was very sweet to meet in person. You could tell she was an animal person right away. Thank you so very much!”
