Ratings and reviews
Sandra is great. Always on time & very gentle but direct with my fur pups.
Sandra is THE best. She goes above and beyond to make sure Denali is cared for and loved. She makes going away so much easier. We don’t know what we would do without her!!!
Sandra is probably the most professional person I have found in the desert in the 2 years we’ve been here. Punctual, loving and caring to our pet, responsive to any questions we had in a more than timely manner, took care of our home with respect. Yes, we will have Sandra back again..thank you Sandra for a great job.
Sandra is the best!!! She’s communicative, professional, respectful and kind!!! She is the only person we trust with our sometimes moody, finicky German shephard!
Sandra is absolutely amazing! If I could give her 10 Stars, I would!!!! This was the second time that we had her watch Burton and Gwen, and we feel sooo fortunate to have found her. When she came to pick up the key for this past visit, I loved seeing how excited Burton and Gwen were to see her again. It is very clear that they love her! It is so nice to be able to leave - stress free - knowing that your pets are going to be completely taken care of! Once again, THANK YOU Sandra for taking such amazing care of Burton and Gwen!
Sandra is absolutely amazing and my husband and I are so thankful that we found her! If I could of given her 10 out of 5 stars, I would of! Prior to her stay, she took the time to come over, meet our dogs, and learn about their daily routine. She spent time getting to know our pups, and asked us questions to make sure she was providing them with the care we wanted while we were away. We were gone for about a week, and each day Sandra checked in and sent us the cutest photos of our dogs (our dogs never sit still long enough for us to get a good photo .... Sandra had a way with them)! She always promptly responded with any questions that we had and sent us updates through the day. When we arrived home, our house was in perfect condition and our dogs were completely taken care of. It is scary to leave your pet with someone while you are away, however, I would leave them with Sandra is a heartbeat. She really does take care of your pets as they are your own! She is very flexible (at the last minute, unexpectedly, we needed to add on another day), she is responsive, she is a great photographer, she clearly loves animals, and takes amazing care of your pets and home! We will booking with Sandra again for our next trip and we are so appreciative of her!
