Portia is our go-to dog sitter anytime we are out of town and I couldn’t trust her more with my dog!! She really took the time to get to know Macie and they get along great! I can’t recommend Portia enough!

Portia is amazing! She was so patient and sweet with our two old guys. We were able to thoroughly enjoy our trip knowing our home and pups were in good hands. Thank you, Portia!

This review is for our second booking with Portia. She was wonderful, and we won't hesitate to book again! Grateful for her care and communication. Highly recommend.

Portia is the BEST with my zoo. She's always willing to walk Norman and snuggle the kitties. She's attentive and on time, and will gladly rebook her for future visits. I can rest easy knowing I have someone in my home that I can trust.
