Pet care experience

I have had pet dogs since I was a child. I no longer have a pet of my own and want to help care for other dogs. I know they are a member of the family and deserve all the love and attention!

Kathleen and her family were great with Barkley! Her daily texts and pictures were very reassuring that he was having a great time! I will definitely use her again and recommend her to care for your pet as her own!

We are so grateful for the incredible care our dog received while we were away. From the moment we dropped her off, it was clear she was in good hands. We received daily pictures and updates, and you could tell her whole family genuinely enjoyed having our pup around. She went above and beyond — extremely flexible, reliable, and kind. It made our trip so much less stressful knowing our dog was so loved. We’ll definitely be booking again!

Kathleen is so responsive, friendly, flexible, and Jody seemed to be happy and have a good time while with her and her family. I always hate leaving my pup with new people especially with a new health condition, but she was able to administer his pills and put my worries at ease. My pup got lots of good loving and came back happy and healthy!
