“Johny's help was fantastic! What a great feeling to come back home after being away for two weeks and to be greeted by two happy, healthy and ecstatic dogs, as well as thriving house plants and clean home. Johny's communication was impeccable. He treated every aspect of service with integrity, transparency, attention to detail. He followed through on every item of the plan. He is a wonderful person who is kind, intelligent and genuine. It's been great experience in every way. Highly recommend and hope he will be available next time when we need his help.”

“There are no adequate words for Marie's incredibleness!!! Not only did she take excellent care of my two fur babies, who did not make it easy...one going on a hunger strike and the other deciding that the world was her toilet...Marie comforted them through a storm that knocked out the power for many, many hours. She kept me updated daily with cute pics and was so very attentive to my girls' needs and fears. I was able to enjoy my time with family, knowing they were in good hands. Thank you Marie for your patience and kindness!”
