3. Caelyn B.
“Caelyn was a delight and took great care of our two very-different dogs: our Schnoodle puppy and our daughter's 5 year old greyhound. She did everything we asked, sent us pictures and kept us informed. Our dogs were happy and tired when we came home, which means they had a great time!”

“Tanya is WONDERFUL. She was very patient and understanding and took time to get to know my neurotic little pup. She sent pictures and gave daily updates - I definitely recommend her others.”
