5. Joseph S.
“We couldn't have asked for a more attentive, kind and compassionate dog sitter. We've never left our 4 year yorkie mix with a stranger before so we were a bit concerned as we had to make a quick arrangement due to a family emergency. Joe sent us numerous pictures, texts, videos and responded to all our check ins within minutes. Joe accommodated our dog and did his best to make him feel comfortalbe as he was a bit nervous and not eating as well as usual. Our dog looked peaceful and content waiting to return home to his family. Joe was good enough to send us a video of our dog eating so we knew he was getting nourished. When he came home our dog was in great shape and we could tell he was so very well cared for and loved. We give Joe our highest recommendation!”
