“Oliver is a top-notch dog sitter! He absolutely exceeded our expectations when it came to the level of dedication he provided for our dog, Jaxson. Jax has special needs and requires some extra levels of care. Specifically, he requires oral medication and a specific routine. Oliver was committed to following Jaxson's care requirements and made sure we were confident that we were leaving him in good hands. Not only did he provide amazing care, but he also exceeded our expectations when it came to communication. He left a kind note welcoming us home and letting us know how Jaxson's day had gone. He also left the house in perfect, tidy condition. Oliver is kind, smart, prepared, dedicated, and everything you could possibly want in a dog sitter. 10/10, I would recommend him to anyone, anytime! Thank you, Oliver, for taking such good care of our buddy! We hope to see you soon!”


“Mina gave great feedback while we were away and was awesome with our girl Libby!”
