Donna was fantastic with our two Cavapoo fur babies! They were well cared for and happy when we returned from our trip. Thank you Donna!

Donna is amazing with our dogs and our house! She is truly a special sitter and you’d be lucky to have her! She took very good care of our two pups while we were out of town for almost 2 weeks. She diligently cared for them and also watched over our house! On top of that, she’s a wonderful person and we highly recommend her!

Donna was wonderful when we booked her for a very last minute trip. She gave our cat her meds like a pro, which was such a relief. Our cat also had additional last minute medicine needs from a vet visit the day prior to our trip, and we were weren't sure how that would go, but Donna made it happen. When we arrived home everything was in pristine condition and all three of our pets were very happy. We would definitely recommend Donna and use her again!

Donna was wonderful! From the first interaction, I appreciated her clear communication, promptness, and her kind presence. I could tell she wanted to ensure she could meet all of my needs around her schedule, and she not only met but exceeded what I needed (when I asked her to do an added favor for me, she'd already done it!), and really helped reassure me so I could focus on the training I was out of town for. I was struck by her conscientiousness, how respectful and intentional she was about being a guest in my space, leaving it clean and well taken care of, and I was so comforted with her bonding with my cats: one was rubbing up on her from the first meet, the other, much more shy, I expected would barely show face (as she has done with past sitters, hiding practically the whole time until maybe the tail end of multiple days), but I was happily quite surprised to get pics and hear she was coming out to play and connect by the second day of the house sit - clearly a reflection of Donna's safe presence and care. Would absolutely book with Donna again and highly recommend! Thank you, Donna!
