Dorothy stepped in to cat-sit last minute when we were in a pinch and boy did we luck out—what a wonderful sitter! Dorothy was very communicative with us and so good with our kitties. Her updates were thoughtful, detailed, and really attuned to our cats’ quirks! Highest recommendations!!

Dee is a wonderful sitter! She is super responsive, and went above and beyond to help out when my flight home was delayed. Dee put my mind at ease that our kitty would be taken care of even if I was stuck in the airport unexpectedly. She sent daily updates and pictures, and we knew our cat was in good hands while we were away. The moment she walked in our door, our cat Mowgli felt at ease with her. I highly recommend Dee and plan to rebook in the future :)

Great sitter! Gave many periodic updates, took care of my puppers and kitty and left them very happy. Ran out of food and she ran out to the store and got some.

Dorothy did a great job. She had to administer dog meds and become acquainted quickly with an overactive large puppy and and my older dog. House looked great and dogs seemed happy when I returned home

A typical day

I love trying to create a normal balance for the animals in my care. Lounging on the couch, playing in the yard, having a nice walk in their favorite park. I am happy to keep life normal for your pups while their favorite people are away!

I like to know the special needs of a dog and what their likes and dislikes are in their routine. As I mentioned before, I like to mimic your dog’s normal routine as best as possible to keep them comfortable during your vacation or time away.
