They were absolutely great with watching my little yorkie. Before the sitting they were very diligent about setting up a meet and greet. During the meet and greet we did a practice walk and went over the stay. During the stay they were so sweet and kind to my girl. At one point my yorkie wasn't feeling well and they took my yorkie to the emergency vet and stayed there with her until I could get there. I highly recommend!!! They are a wonderful and caring sitter.

Dee is amazing! She’s always on time, very sweet, and respectful to me, my pup, and my house! It’s a huge relief to have someone I trust and someone who my dog loves to watch him. I’m especially grateful because my dog is high anxiety and she was patient as he got familiar with her through meet and greets before she watched him for the weekend. My pup loves her and I’ll absolutely be booking with her again!

Mark went above and beyond, not just walking and caring for my dog, but taking him for road trips around the area during a weeklong stay. Watching him and my dog interact, it’s clear that my dog really liked him and that Mark combined gentle caring with firm direction in an optimal way. Mark also left my house cleaner than he found it, which was a nice bonus. Would wholly recommend Mark if you need a safe set of hands to dog/house sit.

We had a wonderful experience with Stephanie. She went above and beyond caring for our Penny. We're still training Penny, who is a puppy, and Stephanie helped reinforce good behavior on walks and inside. Penny even got a nice massage and music therapy! We hope to have Stephanie care for Penny again.

Emily was amazing! I hesitate to have a house sitter since my pup can be very protective of the house but the circumstances made other options not possible this time so Emily saved the day and handled my two babies like an absolute champ! She was so patient with my pup and allowed her time to get comfortable and gave me constant updates. I was stress free my whole trip bc I knew my babies were in good hands. Thanks Emily!
