“Katie was a fantastic sitter! She was excellent at communicating with us and providing updates while we were away. Katie ensured our puppy felt at home in her space. We will definitely book with her in the future.”
2. Brenna T.
“Brenna was super confident about taking care of my slow to warm up dog and I felt very reassured that he would be in good hands. She was patient with him and helped him eat which he can be hesitant to do, and send lots of pictures of him lounging at her house. He was very relaxed when I picked him up! Would definitely book again and I recommend Brenna for anxious dogs.”

11. Greta E.
“It was an absolute delight working with Greta. Her love of dogs is apparent and she sent daily updates. Our dog, Winter, just started taking medication and that was no problem. Greta also gave Winter personalized care for specific issues like chewing (and eating) household objects and anxiety when we're away. Greta lives with her parents who work from home and that was a huge bonus as well. They obviously loved Winter as well and were available when Greta was at work. Winter was happy and relaxed when I picked her up. I would definitely recommend Greta as a dog sitter and will use her services again.”

“My two dogs have stayed with Shelly and Mike twice now and they absolutely love it at their home. Shelly is so good with the dogs and makes them feel very comfortable in a new home. She takes them on multiple walks a day and gives them lots of snuggles throughout the day. I love getting pictures of the dogs every day as it shows me how good Shelly is with the dogs and that my pups are having fun there! I can’t say enough good things about Shelly and Mike! Thank you so much for taking such good care of them! ~Robin Brown”
