1. Kimberly P.

“Kim is wonderful! It's the first time I have left my pets with a hired in house pet sitter in a long time but felt very at ease with Kim. My dog is 15 years old and has good days and bad days so I wasn't sure how she would handle a pet sitter but she was well taken care of. I was sent many pics over the 5 days of my pets being comfortable and loved on. Will be hiring again for sure!”
