I am very pleased with the care Dorothy provided my boy for a few days as I had to go to Vancouver for some personal needs. I got daily updates along with photos and my dog had a blast, enjoyed her yard and overall I think I was more anxious about the situation than my anxious dog was. Would highly recommend her for your fur babies and I will likely utilize Dorothy for future dog care as I'd like my boy to build a small on going relationship with his care giver while I am away. Thanks for everything Dorothy! We really appreciated it.

My two Aussie's had an absolute blast with Dorothy! She was so helpful by keeping me updated on how they were and even included photos! Thank you I look forward to our next booking ❤️

Dorothy was nothing short of amazing - definitely eased the stress of leaving our 16 month old pup for the first time knowing she was in good hands! From an initial meet and greet to receiving text and photo updates daily while we were away, she took considerate care of our girl while we were away. So nice to know that we now have a reliable and genuine caregiver in the future!
