Donetta is an excellent sitter! She treats our beagle Charlie with the utmost care. We certainly appreciate her attention to details regarding Charlie. 5 stars!!!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Donnetta! She stepped in at the very last minute when I needed help, and from the moment I dropped my dog off, I knew he was in caring and capable hands. She sent me daily updates and photos of my furry family member, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She also took the time to offer thoughtful suggestions on ways I could better care for him, showing that she genuinely cares about the health and well-being of every pet she watches. What truly impressed me was that she even called to check on him after he returned home. That level of compassion and dedication is rare and meant so much to me. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, I wholeheartedly recommend her. I would trust her with my dog again without hesitation!
