Very easy couple to work with, highly recommend them! They have kept our dog twice. When I dropped him off the second time he seemed happy to be there, & remebered the trail they walked him on. He was well cared for & happy when I picked him up.

Five stars!!! I definitely will be seeking them as sitters in the future and I know my pup loved his stay with them! They sent pictures every day, have the ideal set up for a dog to play (fenced in yards), and they are expert sitters. So happy I found them!

I can’t say enough nice things about how well my girl was cared for by Michelle! I will definitely use her again for anytime my girl needs a sitter.
