Cara was amazing with our Saint Berdoodle Lizzie! She was so understanding of her energetic, playful puppy personality! She sent us pictures and videos while we were away, which gave us peace of mind. Lizzie came home happy, and we were so appreciative that Cara took such great care of her, especially on such short notice.

Cara and her family took wonderful care of our dog! He had lots of fun playing with their dogs, going on walks, and sniffing around their yard. Next time we need a dog sitter in the area, we will be sure to check with her first.

Another great visit with Cara--Frieda was happy and even a little ambivalent about whether to go home!

Cara took great care of Max! So friendly but also totally on top of everything. We would be very pleased to board Max with Cara and her family again.

Oswald had a lot of fun staying over at Cara’s house, definitely would recommend her. When I picked up Oswald was so worn out from his overnight stay. He was very happy!
