1. Letitia R.
“Our second booking with Letitia went just as great as the first! I felt like she really cared about our dogs and their health and safety. Our 2 dogs looked happy and comfortable around her and that says a lot for one of our dogs who is a lot more shy around new people. She also went above and beyond to entertain and keep the fur babies happy and she did things around the house before she left the last day that wasn't asked of her to do but is SO helpful after returning from a trip. I hope when we need a dog sitter again, she'll be available. Letitia is a great find!!”
