Absolutely WONDERFUL! Barthalomew was very communicative before, during and after the sitting. My dog was super happy the entire time! And so was I! I got photos of her resting, playing and overall just having a lovely time. She came back super happy and healthy! And he even washed the reusable peepee pad I left with him! So kind! I also live close by so he offered to pick her up and drop her off! Such amazing service. I will only take my little pup to Barthalomew from now on! THANK YOU!!!

So easy to work with. Very flexible and accommodating. My dog was well cared for and had a great time.

Barthalomew is someone who is sweet and engaging - and genuinely cares about all dogs. He wasnt phased by our cranky chihuahua, and patiently got him to trust him.

I've known Barthalomew for years! He's watched our dog dozens of times and she always came back healthy and happy. He also is the parent to a well-behaved and very happy dog of his own. He loves giving dogs the attention they need rather than just existing around them.
