Reviews

Barbara was absolutely amazing! She stayed with our baby, Calie, for 6 nights and 7 days, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. From the moment we left, Barbara kept us updated every single day with messages and adorable pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. She also left us a daily diary with notes about everything she and Calie did each day, which showed just how much care, attention, and love she gave We are beyond grateful for the exceptional care she provided and would recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and attentive pet sitter. Thank you, Barbara—we will absolutely be booking with you again!

Barbra continues to do a great job with my cats. She is a wonderful sitter!

Barbra is FANTASTIC and took care of our Lexi like she was her own. She also provided super care of our home.

This is our fourth time having Barbra stay at our house with our dog Radar. She leaves us a daily diary of her activities with our dog! And sends us photos when we check in And she leaves the house immaculate after her stays. We highly recommend Barbra.
