Tina is the greatest! She’s punctual and loving to my furbabies Zappa and Sally. She is very experienced and trustworthy would highly recommend. She has professional experience with animals, and knows how to handle emergencies. She’s smart and educated. I feel safe leaving my pets in her care.
Tina is the best of the best!!! I brought my baby to her when he was only 8 weeks old and she trained and turned him into the sweetest baby ever!!! Even though he is now 6, and only sees his second mommy Tina a few times a year, she will always be his favorite person. There is no better dog trainer, sitter, walker, and care taker than Tina!!!!!!!
Tina is one of the few dog sitters who loves what they do and you can tell as soon as she gets in the room with my pup. She always makes sure my dog is cared for , especially the health aspect. Has never once missed the medicine routine and is always so compassionate even on my puppy’s rough days. Tina always makes sure that he gets his exercise outside rain or shine, and always makes sure my furball is happy. She really has become part of the family , best sitter ever.
Finding a good dog sitter is rare to come across until I met Tina. The first time she walked into my home I could automatically see the natural connection she had with our doggos. Tina genuinely cares and loves our dogs and it shows as soon as she walks through our door and they start wagging their tails running up to her. Tina makes sure that our furry friends are always taken care of whether it be the water bowl always being full ,or the long walks just to make sure they get enough time outside. Tina has become the only person I feel comfortable enough leaving our pups with, she is truly the best.
