Dee made going on vacation a little easier knowing my pups were well cared for. I have a motion web cam and reviewing the feed made me laugh. Dee spent time playing with each dog after they were fed. They seemed to have a good time. Hank seemed a little disappointed she didn't come by the first day we were back. Great sitter.

For Anne, better know as Dee, has been my pet sitter for over twenty years. That should say something in itself. She is irreplaceable. Not only is she attentive, professional and loving to my pets, she would also check on the welfare of my elderly mother. She is an amazing person and I would be more than happy to speak with anyone who would like a verbal recommendation. She is the best.

Dee has been our cat sitter for 7 years and has always been reliable, thorough and caring to our 3 boys. She took care of our very old sick cat giving medication and special food to him while we were on a long trip and he did very well with her. She is one of the few people that can pet and feed our little introvert kitty as he is very fussy about who he likes. She follows our pet care instructions attentively, which I appreciate. Great cat sitter!

Dee was my dog walker for over 5 years. She was always on time and great with my anxious boy. She went above and beyond with him. I never worried about my dog because he was always safe with her. When we were displaced after a hurricane, Dee still came to our temporary home which gave my boy the stability he needed during so many transitions in our life. Your dog will be safe and happy with her.
