I can’t recommend Heather highly enough! She arrived early, kept me updated with clear and friendly communication, and immediately connected with my dogs. It was clear she has a natural way with animals, and my pups adored her. Heather is incredibly reliable and made the entire process stress-free. I’ll definitely be booking her again!

Morgan has been great with our 2 Great Pyrenees, they both seem really comfortable with her, and look forward to her stopping by to let them out. I love that I can relax and know that my boys are well taken care of. 😁🐕🐕

Zach is an incredibly dependable and responsible person. He has a lot of experience working with dogs of multiple sizes and temperaments. He also has a history of working with dogs with some medical concerns and differing abilities including dogs with diminished hearing, sight, and gastro-intestinal issues. Zach would make a loving and dependable pet caregiver and any pets under his care would be in safe hands.f

Deb was amazing with our pups! This was their first time with a new sitter and immediately fell in love. Deb sent detailed updates every day and spent a little extra time with them when one was not feeling well. She even cleaned up some poopy accidents! (Sorry again for that additional unexpected work!). Will definitely be booking her again. My dogs would be very upset if I didn't!

Sarah was fantastic! She communicated really well and was so reliable while we were gone. Our 2 cats had been put on meds right before we left for our family vacation, and Sarah was able to manage and administer them for us. She played with our girls and gave them the love and cuddles they needed. Would definitely recommend!

Vanessa did a great job with Captain. I especially appreciated the update she provided at the end of the stay to let me know how things went. She asked great questions at the start and clearly has a love and appreciation for animals.
