About: I have grown up with dogs since I was a child, so that gives me 30 plus years experience. My 2 children and I stay at home all day and can give your beloved pet the love and attention they deserve. I have plenty of backyard for them to run in, a nice neighborhood for walking and of course I can come to your home if thats the job needed.

“Tiffany dog/house sat for us while we were on a trip out of the country and she was fantastic! She was communicative while we were away and sent us pictures of our dog almost every day. She is responsive and very knowledgeable about dogs. Our dog was well taken care of and we appreciate Tiffany's attentiveness to her needs. I would highly recommend Tiffany to any person needing a dog/house sitter - 2 paws up!”
17. Bridget C.
“Bridget was wonderful with my girls! If your dog can be so comfortable with someone to fall asleep and snore on them then i think they must have done a great job. I was very happy to hear that my dogs were safe, happy and well taken care of. Thanks again Bridget!”
