Vicki was wonderful and took great care of our two older dogs. She communicated well and sent daily photos. I highly recommend!

Vicki is conscientious and she took excellent care of my pets. I look forward to having her sit again in the future.

Vicki was great! Our pups loved being with her and enjoyed all her special care. We knew all was well when she described how they jumped in her lap and how they responded. Beyond basic care, she also had to deal with a strong storm that was stressful for one dog and knocked out power for hours. The security system had issues as well and Vicki handled all of it. Highly recommend Vicki!

Vicki became quick friends with our dog and cat, Maggie and Lucy, and formed a loving relationship instantly! Our cat Lucy is normally a shy and grumpy cat, but had no problem warming up to Vicki. Vicki was very reliable, responsible, loving, and very often available to take care of our fur babies when we went away on vacation. We highly recommend her services and wish she was still closer to us so we could hire her again!

Vicki has been a close friend of mine for years. I have watched her love her own dogs and watched her care for others. My cat, Hazel, has a slow to warm up personality. Vicki took the time to build a loving, trusting and caring relationship with Hazel, letting Hazel lead the way. When she sat for her, she sent me photos and concerns, if she had any. The 1st time, she took her to the vet, with my permission, because Hazel wouldn't eat or drink. All was fine, she just missed me and many times later Vicki stayed with her, all was fine. Thank you Vicki for the great care you took of her, It let me leave her and enjoy my travels with no concern. Linda Henault

Vicki L is one of the most conscientious people I know. She has house/pet sat for my husband and I as well as for our son and daughter-in-law. Not only does she take her responsibilities seriously, she honestly falls in love with the animals she cares for. While we were on vacation, Vicki would share stories of our cats sleeping with her and how much she loved them. I’ve known her as a friend and often she was caring for someone’s dog while we got together. Vicki would make a point of not being away from her four-legged charges for very long, wanting to give the animals the best care possible.
