“Jeremy and Diana are lovely! They took our little guy semi-last minute and welcomed him into their home. They sent updates daily so we could check in and they were super easy to communicate with. Will definitely be reaching out to them again in the future!”
3. Nettie R.
“Fantastic. Nettie is very good with dogs and my Tilly probably got more attention and exercise that could give her. I've learned that Nettie hikes daily, so if your dog loves to hike, Nettie is the one, plus the absolute love your dog will receive. She has a nice backyard, so there's plenty of room for running around.”
4. Kendal F.
“Kendal is the BEST! She was so flexible with our timing for dropping our dog Blue off and picking him up, she sent us pictures everyday of him happy as can be! He went on way more walks then we ever give him and was snuggling on couches and living his best life 🐕 ❤️ We were nervous since this was our first time leaving our Blue with a stranger for a few days but we will definitely be calling Kendal for any future pet sitting!”
