Kathleen was amazing with our dogs and our schedule. Took amazing care of our home while we were away as well. Would 100% recommend and rebook for any of our extended times away from home.

Clara was absolutely amazing! Our very shy dog warmed up to her much more quickly than he has other new folks. Our house was cleaner when we returned than it was when we left! Clara communicated with us a few times per day and sent photos. She even brought her own treats for our babies. Will 100% use her again!

Clara O is a wonderful individual with a huge heart! The experience for our dogs was incredible. The patience and kindness she showed our senior dogs was above and beyond the norm. I highly recommend Clara O for anyone that cares about their puppies well being. An additional benefit for using Clara O is that your house will look better than you left it!

Clara took such wonderful care of our elderly pit bull mix, Luna, while we were out of town for a few days. She was incredibly kind, responsible, and truly excellent with our senior girl. Luna got daily walks, lots of gentle love and attention, and every bit of the special care she needs at her age. Clara was so skilled at preparing Luna’s specific meals and even brought extra treats and toys to keep her spoiled and happy. She’s hands-down the absolute best dog sitter we’ve ever had. I can’t recommend Clara enough!

Clara is an absolute gem and has been our dog sitter for the last six years. She traveled all the way to our home to stay with our Rottweiler Moose and French Bulldog Frank while we were away for a week, and she took such wonderful care of both of them. She’s truly phenomenal with the dogs, they absolutely adore her and get so excited every time she walks through the door. We don’t trust anyone else with our pups, and for good reason. Clara has never let us down. She’s reliable, loving, and makes sure the boys are happy, exercised, and well cared for the entire time. We’re so lucky to have her and will keep booking her for every trip!
