1. Ann R.

“Ann did a great job watching our little guy. She communicated often and was helpful administering some medicine for him. Our dog is a bit anxious at first too, but Ann was very approachable and made a point to be extra attentive in those initial meetings”




2. Natalie D.

“Natalie is the best. Our dogs love her whenever she comes to watch them when we go on trips. Incredibly communicative and a pleasure to work with. Thanks for taking such good care of the girls for us!”

5. Mariah B.

“Mariah was wonderful - and so incredibly accommodating to our needs, as we travel across country. She took the girls, (Cher and Dion), on long walks to see the sights and sniffs of the city - and provided me with all the pictures I could ever want. Couldn't recommend her enough and will definitely be reaching out again the next time we're back in Pittsburgh.”

“Jessica was wonderful we had experience, she let me know when she arrived and sent pictures of my pups. She followed my directions o their care and updated me on what they were doing.

“Michael, looked after my dogs Milo and bailey while I was out on vacation for 10 days. He kept me updated with photos and feedback on how my dogs were doing, he went above and beyond to make sure their needs were met aside from walking them, he would play with them and even take them to the dog park. I would certainly recommend Michael to look after your pets because he truly loves and understands pets.”

I will definitely be asking her to care for my pups again!”

We're so happy we found Carolyn and will definitely rebook with her in the future.”
