“Amanda did an amazing job of taking care of my dog for a week. I have a small dog that recently went blind and Amanda was very well versed in taking care of older dogs and dogs with disabilities. Her house is well set up for taking care of older/disabled dogs and communications with her were always instant. Amanda is also an incredibly nice and personable person in general. I highly recommend Amanda to anyone needing a dog sitter.”

17. Julie W.
“Julie is a perfect pet sitter. She shared questions to help me explain all about my little dolly. She shared daily reports and pictures while my dolly was there. When I met her and Eric at our home visit, I felt immediately comfortable and knew she would do a terrific job taking care of my baby and she did. I'm looking forward to setting up another stay when I go away this spring.”
