Needed Dirk’s help last minute with Hitchcock and he was quick to respond that he could watch him! He’s truly the best sitter we’ve ever used for our pup.

I have nothing but praise to give for Dirk and for the care that he gives my dogs! My dogs get so excited when they know they are going to Dirk's. They get cuddle time, they get individual playtime, they get pack time. It's truly like they are going to a doggy spa! If you need a dog sitter that will take phenomenal care of your dog check Dirk out. I highly recommend!!!

Great as always! Our dog is definitely very anxious when we leave her but she’s always very comfortable with Dirk and walks right into his place. He is very communicative and takes good care of her, highly recommend!
