As always, our pup enjoyed his adventures with Marlowe! She is so kind to send pictures and updates constantly, so we don't have to worry about him while we're gone. We love knowing he's having a great time with her. Thanks, Marlowe!

Amanda is INCREDIBLE!!! I felt so at peace knowing that my precious dog, Cooper, was safe in her care. She was punctual, attentive, respectful and sent me so many pictures of her time with Cooper. She is a true gem and always welcome back at my house. Cooper can’t wait to see her again in a few weeks!

Alex did a great job with our 2 pups. He took detailed notes at our meet and greet and followed their feeding and walking schedules carefully. Great communication and pics so we knew they were receiving good care. We’ve already booked Alex for our next time away

Erica took great care of our pups and home while we were away. She gave extra special care for our low mobility elderly pug who requires daily pills/eyedrops. She was punctual and gave regular updates as well. Highly recommended, thank you!

What a wonderful person and dog sitter. Sassy loved staying with Kim. Kim kept me informed every day and sent pictures on how she and Sassy spent day. She was so good at letting me know how Sassy was doing with taking her medicine and that she was eating and drinking. I was afraid Sassy wouldnt eat while I was gone.. Sje ate like a champ. Couldn't have been more relaxed about Sassy being taken care of while I was gone. Was gone out of town for 7 days. Kim is so caring and a professional. Will be booking her every time I go out of town from now on. I really recommend her if you want someone who cares and loves your pet like you do.

Grace did an amazing job with my high energy handful of a hound dog! I came home from a week away to a house that looked terrific and a happy dog. I was traveling in some pretty remote areas of the country away from cell signal and email and it was nice to know I had such a reliable sitter at home with Tracker.

About: I’ve been a dog lover for as long as I can remember! I grew up with a mom who worked in the Richmond Animal Shelter & a house full of adopted animals. From my sisters spoiled Pibble baby to my neighbors sweet little Yorkie, I’ve been their go to sitter/walker to watch their babies because they know I’ll love on them like my own fur babies 💕 I love to do Meet & Greets prior to your baby’s walk/drop-in if feasible. Coko & I are available Saturdays & Sundays for Meet & Greets! I am a mom of 3 & we have a Shih-poo named Coko. My babies have all grown up around family dogs and understand to be gentle with fur babies. Our neighborhood is very dog friendly so I’m sure we’ll meet a friend or two on ours walks.

Caitlin house sat for us for 3 days and I don't think my younger dog, Hunter, wanted her to leave! He loves to play fetch and Caitlin kept him entertained! Everything was great while we were gone and the house was neat and clean when we got home. We will definitely be using Caitlin again in the future. I am pretty sure Hunter is begging us to go somewhere soon so she will come back!

Piper is the best!! Piper stepped in at the last minute when we had an issue with our previous sitter. She gave the pups plenty of love and exercise, and FaceTimed so I could go through their routine and virtually walk her through the house virtually. We truly cannot thank her enough!! To boot, she left the house in immaculate shape. Thank you, Piper ❤️

Kiera was wonderful with our two elderly dogs and senior cat. She administered meds, catered to their individual needs, and sent daily pics. My chihuahua mix is wary with strangers but was cuddling with Kiera in no time. Kiera even brought mealworms to feed our Venus flytrap plant -- which was starving since I only gave it water. She also went above and beyond her duties by helping with a bit of a family emergency involving our travel plans. When we returned from our trip, the house was in good order and the animals were relaxed and happy. She as also prompt, communicative, and professional. We highly recommend Kiera.
