I never worry about Frankie when he’s with Peggy! Frankie requires some extra care (he wears diapers and takes meds) and Peggy never has any issue doing those extra things for him. Peggy is extremely friendly and easy to work with - we will definitely book again!

Peggy is a wonderful dogsitter! She is very friendly and easy to work with. I appreciated her flexibility and responsiveness and will definitely continue working with her! I never worry about Frankie when he is with her.

Peggy is a lovely person. She obviously loves dogs and is an experienced dog owner. She hosted my dog with just her family and her sweet golden retriever, so it felt like my dog went to stay with a family and had an extended play date. Thank you Peggy. I would highly recommend!

Peggy is an excellent dog sitter! First off, she helped us in a real bind when our originally booked dogsitter couldn’t do it and she agreed at the lash minute to watch our pup. Even though it was the day before we were supposed to fly out, Peggy was still able to do a meet and greet and went through all our detailed instructions. Frankie has some health issues and I feel like he came back to us better than when we dropped him off! We’re so happy with this experience and will definitely be rebooking with Peggy in the future!
