Britt did a great job taking care of minnow for her first time away from home! She sent updates and photos and made me feel more at ease about leaving her for an upcoming trip. I will definitely rebook Britt to watch minnow for any future trips I take 😊

Britt goes above and beyond! A very considerate dog sitter/walker that communicates so well I wish other people would be just as attentive to their clients. Britt will always be my first choice when taking care of my senior pups.

We had a great experience with Britt as our dog sitter. Britt stayed at our apartment and watched our dachshund, Robin. She was respectful of our guidelines for protecting Robin’s back (setting up his gate when he’s home alone, using ramps) and was very professional and communicative. We will be hiring Britt again!

Britt is a great walker/sitter and I always hope she is available to book when we go out of town. She is very responsive and communicates well. I know I can rely on her to do a good job with our precious senior pups.
