Reviews
Yasmin is great with pets! My dog immediately took a liking to her, and he enjoyed the long walk she took him on. My dog is older and walks slowly, but Yasmin had no trouble being patient with him.
I am thrilled to share my experience with Yasmin’s dog sitting services. I have used her services twice now, and I can honestly say that she is one of the best dog sitters I have ever come across. From the moment I contacted her, I felt at ease knowing that my dog was in good hands. She was very responsive and communicative, answering all my questions and concerns promptly. She took the time to get to know my dog and his unique needs, which gave me peace of mind knowing that he was in good care. During my trips, she sent me regular updates with photos and videos, which allowed me to relax and enjoy my time away without worrying about my fur baby. I could see that my dog was having a great time and was being treated like a member of her family. When I returned home, my dog was happy and relaxed, which is a testament to the excellent care he received while I was away. I appreciate the attention to detail and the extra effort she put into making sure my dog was comfortable and happy. I highly recommend my Yasmin’s sitting services to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter. She is truly passionate about animals and goes above and beyond to ensure that they are well taken care of. Thank you for everything!
