Barbara took great care of our dogs while we were on vacation. Daily updates with pictures and video were awesome. Our dogs were cared for and loved as if they were part of her family. Will definitely use Barbara again when we travel!

Barbara took such good care of our dog, Caymus. Staying with her was a vacation for him! She sent daily updates, videos and pictures that made us feel so comfortable. Definitely feel like we found someone to care for him that loves him as much as we do.

Barbara has been caring for our 8-year-old pug since he was just a few months old, and I truly can’t recommend her highly enough. From day one, she has treated him like her own. She understands his personality, his quirks, and his needs better than anyone outside of our family. Whether it’s sticking to his routine, making sure he’s comfortable, or giving him the attention and love he thrives on, Barbara consistently goes above and beyond. What gives me the most peace of mind is her reliability and genuine care. I never have to worry when he’s with her. I know he’s safe, happy, and well taken care of. She communicates regularly, is incredibly responsive, and always keeps us updated, which makes being away so much easier. Our pug absolutely adores her, and that says everything. It’s rare to find someone you trust completely with your pet, and Barbara is that person for us. If you’re looking for someone who is experienced, dependable, and truly loves animals, Barbara is the best you will find.

Barbara has cared for my dog, Ash many times and he loves her dearly. She takes care of him as if he is her own. He has terrible allergies and needs many medications as well as specific dietary needs. Barbara always makes sure he gets his medications and his specific foods as prescribed. She takes him for long walks and gives him the care and attention he needs. Ash gets excited when we get to her home and rushes to meet her everytime she takes care of him. I would definitely suggest her to anyone who is looking for a dog sitter who will care for your dog as well as you do. I will not ever have anyone else watch Ash. She is wonderful!
