“Great sitter! Pups were very happy! It was some time ago but just logged back on and noticed I didn’t leave a review. Will definitely use Gabrielle again.”
2. Beth E.
“Beth is very attentive with Otto. We got daily updates with pictures. She took him on multiple walks daily, played with him, and spent time relaxing with him so that he was comfortable with her. Otto sometimes has trouble on walks around other dogs, and Beth made sure he was safe when in the leash. Otto enjoyed his time with her!”

9. Donna C.
“Donna was fantastic! My two boys each have their own challenges - my senior boy moves a little slower and my younger boy is still overcoming a previous bad living situation. They loved Donna the moment the met her. Dogs always know! She was patient with both of them and allowed them to get to know her on their own terms. We got pictures while we were away and the boys looked happy and relaxed. We will definitely book her again.”

14. Rose K.
“Rory is amazing!! So great with dogs. She has watched our energetic golden retriever Ripley for two summers. First as a puppy and then this year as a big 70 pound adolescent dog. She is very reliable, and clearly loves dogs. She took him for long walks and was able to manage his energy level easily. She also cared for my son’s anxious 18 pound chihuahua mix, Poppy, and Poppy responded so well to her. I highly recommend her and would trust her completely with my dog and my home.”
15. Julie T.
“Julie took amazing care of my dog! My dog is reactive to other dogs so choosing the right sitter to stay with her and take her on walks was important! Julie took lots of pictures and gave me a thorough summary each day, which helped me feel reassured while I was away!”
16. Thea T.
“Thea & her sweet boy Osiris are the best! She is very empathetic, understanding, patient and kind! I highly recommend her to anyone! Her boy Osiris is the sweetest dog to my 2 boys! Her home has ample space for your dogs to enjoy and play! Hands down she took direction well for both Mav & Rooster but went above and beyond care for them! Thank you Thea!!!”
17. Grace R.
“Grace was attentive, friendly, professional, and thorough in her review and care for our animals (two cats and an oddball dog). She was quick to reply and clearly took the task of watching over our "kids" with a lot of care. I would highly recommend Grace for anyone's pet care needs.”

19. Paige F.
“Paige was amazing! Took great care of our pets and provided them with comfort while we were away! She updated us with photos and let us know how all of our pets were doing each day, would definitely recommend and book again. Thanks Paige!”
