1. Dawn B.
“Dawn was a delight to have as Oliver's sitter. She provided a ton of updates and we were completely at ease with how she cared for Oliver. Even with his separation anxiety, Oliver was doing well and thrived with Dawn and her husband. Dawn even made treats for Oliver after the boarding. I am so happy we found Dawn to watch over Oliver. Definitely planning coming back to Dawn!”

I will definitely board my dog with her again. I can’t recommend her enough!”
