“Taite is absolutely incredible. So reliable, punctual, and kind. She took such great care of my cat while I was away on vacation. Top notch communication and updates!

About: Gemma will be so excited to meet new friends and play with new puppies! My boys and I have been loving having other dogs over and our little fur baby enjoys the social time quite a lot. I grew up with dogs (we had pugs and a maltese) and it is fun to see how much joy she is bringing my boys. She will be 1 this year. We hope to meet your fur baby very very soon too. My boys love to play and so your dog will get a lot of exercise and treats if that's ok with you too. They are really good at teaching her new tricks too. We are looking forward to helping you out. Hope to see you soon.

“Sonya was fantastic! She went above and beyond to make sure our cat was healthy and fed. She gave him IV fluids and a pill, and it was not an easy task! Highly recommended!!”
“Ashly was great with my four boys and sought them out to give them some love while she was here. The photos were lovely and I could tell they felt comfort with her. I’ve already hired her for my next work trip.”
