“Was able to check in with very short notice, and the dogs seemed to really love her! She even brought in an Amazon package for me. We will definitely use her again”
2. Shelly G.
“Shelly was great with my 2 year old Pitbull Dalmatian mix, I highly recommend! Shelly came for a meet & greet on very short notice & impressed me immediately. She was very gentle & comforting to my timid, reactive, & nervous momma from the 1st moment they met! Shelly is punctual, trustworthy, & very good with communicating (even checked how many treats she should be giving?) to owners! I will 100% sure have Shelly sit for my baby again! Thank You Shelly!!”
3. Mary Kay G.
“Mary Kay was great with my two girls (cats). She was incredibly communicative and sent great pictures which put my mind at ease. One of my cats is very fearful and has been known to hiss at strangers, but Mary Kay got her to play and take treats. Would recommend Mary Kay in a heartbeat!!”

7. Yvonne R.
“Yvonne was amazing. My cat Ares absolutely loved her. Even when he first met her, he ran up to her and rubbed on her!! Lol She sent me photos daily of them playing together, which I totally loved. She feed him and changed his little box while I away. She even switched up his food because he dislikes eating the same food everyday. I wish I could give her more than 5 stars. She deserves 100 stars!! I will definitely book her again!!”

14. Leah G.
“Leah made my 9 month old American Bull Terrier Maize and myself feel comfortable on the meet and greet. She shows up on the scheduled time and makes sure she does the 1/2 hr walk as promised plus a little longer most of the time. I get opportunities for overtime and can’t usually accommodate and She works with me on last minute appointments so I can work She is a blessing to my small family, I have to leave for 8-9 hours daily during the week so I know Maize appreciates Leah!”
15. Pattie J.
“Pattie is the most loving, devoted dog mom you'll ever see. She spent years caring for her own flock of pampered and loved dogs, who lived to be upwards of 15 and treated like her own little puppy children all the while. She regularly took them to the doctor, to play dates with other dogs, got them fancy food and treats, toys, and plenty of attention. Grade A candidate for caretaking a puppy”

18. Amanda O.
“Amanda has been a huge help for us by taking care of our French Bulldog while we've been on vacation. Our dog, Hattie, has been getting better care around Amanda and her daughters than when we have Hattie at home. Amanda, a former pet owner and a forever pet lover, has all the experience you would expect from a sitter and caretaker. You can tell when she greets our dog, she knows what dogs like and can get accustomed quickly. Amanda has sent us daily updates with photos about Hattie's activities and walks. She took a list from us about how to care for Hattie and followed all of the steps without any issues. She is communicative and responded quickly when we reached out. When I brought Hattie home, I was afraid she'd not want to leave Amanda, and I'm so glad we have had Amanda to support us during our vacation time.”

“What can I say about Nichole she is a very passionate loving person with a heart of gold she would do just about anything for animals and people alike she does her very best to help with any animal In need”
