“I can't recommend Kevin enough as a dog sitter for anyone looking to leave their furry friend in loving hands. He took exceptional care of my dog, Koda, and I could tell right away that Koda was in great hands. Kevin's attention to detail, warmth, and genuine love for dogs made all the difference. Koda was always so happy and content when I picked him up, and I knew he had been treated like family. From walks to playtime and even those quiet moments of cuddles, Kevin went above and beyond to ensure Koda felt safe and loved. If you're looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog sitter, Kevin is the one to book. You can rest easy knowing your dog is in the best care possible.”

10. Heather W.
“Heather did an amazing job with my dog, Bear. He is a 75 pound lab with tons of energy and love. She split her time with him between my home and her home. While at my home, she took him outside regularly and to the dog park at least twice a day to socialize with other dogs he was used to seeing. Each day I received many pictures and videos of Bear playing at the park, sleeping, eating, playing with her children and running around on her fenced in five acres at her mother’s house which is right next door to her house. Bear was definitely loved and taken care of. I had no worries in the world about him while I was gone. Heather is a “doggone” amazing dog sitter!”
