“Kelly has been super so far! I can tell a difference in Myla when I get home from work on days she has been walked by Kelly. Kelly is also super communicative and accommodating and sends lots of pup pics! 💗”
2. Barber F.
“Barber did a wonderful job with our 2 very shy cats. At the meet and greet session, our shyest cat actually stayed close by which demonstrated a level of comfort and trust. Barber updated me daily, shared pictures, and kept in contact. I would definitely recommend Barber and will ask her to pet sit on our next vacation.”
3. Michael F.
“Michael was prompt, courteous, and a great troubleshooter when problems arose with our electric dog door. He took awesome pictures of our cuties while we were away, and managed an extensive list of requests regarding our doggie care. We appreciated he was willing to meet our dogs before taking on their care. In addition, he was very understanding of the differing needs of our senior and younger dog. We would highly recommend him and plan to use him again in the future.”

From her beloved horse to cats and dogs, Betty is devoted, responsible and completely trustworthy to take care of your pets when you can not.
