Ratings and reviews
Thank you so much, Barbara for taking such great care of Juliette while we were away for a few days this past weekend. I always feel nervous leaving my precious dog with someone new because of her anxiety. You were absolutely fabulous with her. Right from our meet and greet and it was clear the Juliette felt comfortable with you and Jimmy immediately which brought me great relief. Dropping her off before heading out on our trip was a smooth process. Juliette quickly ran into the house to see Jimmy, without looking back lol. We sincerely appreciated your regular updates with pictures. It was very clear that Juliette was extremely well cared for. I can assure you that you will be the first person we reach out to for any future trips where we need Juliette to be cared for. You offer a great service and it's clear you truly love pets. Thanks for treating Juliette as your own.
Barbara was great. Parker seemed very comfortable with her. Barbara sent me photos. When I had a query, Barbara was responsive quickly. Parker will have another 'date' with Barbara. Would recommend Barbara.
I feel so lucky to have found Barbara! She is the most genuine, caring, and loving pet person and I knew the moment my dogs met her that they were going to be in the best hands. Barbara takes the time to get to know your pet, their needs and quirks. It’s so comforting to have someone we can trust with our dogs :)
Thanks so much for taking good care of Cheto! Barbara provided constant regarding Cheto and pictures, my family lover to see them and make us smile.
Barbara took excellent care of Pepper with long walks, cuddles and time to be off leash in her backyard (which he loves but seldom gets as our yard isn’t fenced.) She sent us regular pictures, too. Barbara has a quiet, loving manner and I would highly recommend her as a caregiver for your fur baby. Thank you, Barbara.
Barbara was amazing! She attended fully to the needs of my dog, and went above and beyond with regards to care. Barbara sent regular photos whilst we were away, and I could see that my dog was happy and content. I would not hesitate to recommend Barbara to prospective clients and I would certainly use her again.
