Ms Barbara was amazing! Our dog Krosby was in the best hands and we knew he was receiving the best care. ❤️

We had a wonderful experience with Barbara. She provided us with detailed daily updates including multiple pictures. She took exceptional care of Murphy during frigid cold temperatures and was careful to keep him safe and warm when taking him outside . She was excellent at trouble shooting to enable a smooth transition when Murphy arrived in to her lovely home. We will definitely be calling on Barbara for Murphy’s care in the future.

Barbara was absolutely what I had been searching for. I wanted someone to care for Bentley as if he was their own. I needed to have a person that understands pups that are somewhat privileged (spoiled). Bentley was cared for and loved on and was never exposed to danger. Barbara cared for Bentkey so well that he became possessive when her when her pup Justice wanted her attention. Barbara is an A1 sitter and I would use her again.
