“Elisa was great! She provided updates on Zeus. She communicated timely. We were happy that our dog was happy and loved. She gave Zeus and us a little treat when we picked him up which was extremely thoughtful! She also took some lovely photos of Zeus during his stay with her!”
“Linda was lovely! Once we arrived, she invited us in along with Indy. She already had dog bowls and a doggie bed ready for Indy and took the time to listen about Indy. Linda was super thoughtful since she also checked to ask if he was allowed to sleep on the bed with her since Indy's profile did not say anything about sleeping on beds. She was also very communicative, sending multiple pictures and messages to let us know how he was doing. I highly recommend Lisa and would choose her again!”

She is excited to stay with you again.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my pet received! Our pet sitter went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect while we were away. From daily updates and photos to thoughtful little details that showed genuine care, it was clear our furry family member was in loving, capable hands. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our pet was happy, well-fed, and getting lots of attention. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and professional pet sitter”

It helped calm our nerves knowing he was in good hands.”
