Dorthea took great care of Costa and took her on a much needed walk, potty break and spent some time with her at the dog park but also let her chill out a little bit inside her home rather than the crate on a busy day. She took great pics to keep us updated and was a great communicator throughout the entire process from booking til the end.

Dorthea was fabulous! Our dog Jackson in 16 years old and had never before been taken care of by anyone who wasn't a family member or close friend. As relatively new transplants to Myrtle Beach we didn't have anyone to watch Jackson while we were going to Charleston to meet friends for a birthday. This was last minute. I sent messages to a couple other sitters who were closer to us but neither got back to us. After waiting nearly two days and with time running out, I decided to contact Dorthea as despite being one of the farthist away, had lots of feedback and good reviews. SO glad I did! I contacted Dorthea on Thurday afternoon. She almost immediately accepted the three in home visits I requested for Jackson and while she was busy the rest of the day said she would gladly meet up on Friday morning to meet me, my wife and Jackson. She showed up as she said she would, was very personable and my wife and I both felt Jackson would be in good hands. You never know who you're leaving the keys to your house with but when Dorthea left, my wife and I both immediately agreed we'd made a good decision choosing her. She came over and took care of Jackson and sent pics of him letting us know he was doing well in addition to a few other text messages so we were rest assured that he was being well taken care of. In closing, thank you very much Dorthea for taking good care of Jackson and for anyone reading this, I can't recommend her enough. When we need someone to watch Jackson again, we will be in touch.
