“We had such a great experience with Ema! She was very accommodating and easy to work with. She made sure to send updates, pictures and videos regularly. We felt very at ease knowing our dog was in her care. Highly recommend and will definitely be using her help again!!”

“Parker did a great job. I returned home quite late in the evening on the last day, as expected. Parker checked in the following morning to ensure we had made it home and the dogs were set. Very thoughtful. Will use again.”

“Rachel was great! She took the booking last minute after original plans fell through. I had to be away from home for surgery and I felt very confidant that my dogs would be cared for while I was away so I didn't have to worry about them too! She sent updates and kept me informed. I highly recommend her!”

“Alissa was BEYOND amazing with our dog!! Trust me when I say I have the highest of high standards when it comes to caring for my girl, and Alissa exceeded every single expectation I had. She was extremely communicative, sending updates and pictures throughout the day. She kept me updated when she had to leave the house and returned well within the time frames I asked for. Came home to a clean house and most importantly a happy dog! I highly recommend Alissa and will absolutely continue to rebook with her in the future.”

“Ruth was amazing!! My dog and cat both took to her immediately, and she was so patient with a very energetic dog. She was punctual, kind, took great care of my house and sent lots of pictures. I highly recommend Ruth to anyone who needs care!”
