Barbara took really good care of my dog Dalia! She was very communicative the entire stay and sent lots of great update videos. I will definitely have Barbara watch Dalia in the future!

Barbara is awesome. She treated my dog like her own, sent regular updates, and was generally amazing. The only downside is, I think my dog likes her better than me!

Barbara was amazing! She is super sweet, and you tell she really cares about your pups. Very responsive, and consistently sent updates and pictures. She has a lovely home, as well. One of the best sitters we’ve ever had!
