1. De'Aysia T.

“DeAysia is the best boarder. She took great care of my highly anxious and wounded baby( 4 yr labradoodle). She handled him and his doc visits exceptionally well. He quickly adjusted to her and always seemed happy for 3+ weeks. She kept sending his pics and videos every day which helped me have a worry free vacation.Also, the fact that she has centenary experience is assuring. I would continue to go back to her for my boy and highly recommend her for worry free and happy boarding?”

“I can highly recommend Faith as a pet sitter and caregiver. I have known her since she was a teenager and she worked with me to learn about horse and pet care and then cared for my horses and pets for years. She has worked with full size horses, minis, cats, and dogs. She is familiar with emergency care, veterinary care, and surgical follow up care. She cared for both my horses and cats that required emergency and surgical care. She is reliable and goes above and beyond caring for your pets. She can be trusted with keeping your home secure and clean as well. She has skills as a dog trainer and animal control officer. You really can't go wrong hiring her.”
