Gianna D.
“Gianna is an adamant lover of cats, dogs, and all other animals. She took care of my cat for me while I was away on vacation, and I could not have left him in better hands. She gave me consistent updates on how he was doing when I inquired and put in plenty of effort to keep him comfortable as my cat is very skittish. Additionally, I knew he was in good hands when I learned she will be attending veterinary school soon, I highly recommend her services!”

Nicole N.
“Nicole is a wonderful dog caregiver. Nicole walked my rat terrier with groups of dogs both on and off leash, and I was very impressed with her skills at integrating a somewhat skittish dog like Rosie into groups of dogs. I was very confident that Rosie was in good hands when Nicole walked her, either on short walks or longer hikes. It is obvious by her demeanor and interaction with the dogs that Nicole is a dog-lover, affectionate yet responsible and in charge of the group. Rosie and I will miss Nicole and we wish her great success in the Sacramento area!”
