Jada K.
“Jada went above and beyond to love, take care of, and nurture my baby Marco while we were out of town. In fact, he loved her so much, he was looking for her after we returned home. Jada was GREAT at communicating with me before booking with her, she came to visit Marco to ensure she was ok watching him, AND she maintained contact with me and sent pictures of him throughout our trip. Marco isn't an easy dog to care for, as he's highly emotional, needy, and persistent in his routines. She was willing to stay at my house to make it easier for him, and upon returning home, I could tell by his energy Marco had been exercised well and enjoyed his "usual" routine with Jada! Above the care she offered, she even made a point to make Marco dog treats, which he LOVES! I've already booked with Jada again, for later this year!! Marco has a new girlfriend, for sure! I'd recommend Jada as a sitter in your home again and again! She is honest, hard-working, and willing to do her best to make you at ease and your pet happy! She's a true animal lover! Thanks Jada! 💚”

“Jeri is very loving and kind to animals... she very much cares for the animal's well-being and was very dedicated to ensuring our dog was fed and watered to our requests. She also provided helpful suggestions on ways to improve our dog's health and vitality. Kaya always got extra doggie treats when Jeri was around. :) When our dog was hit by a car, she went above and beyond to ride with me to the vet and hospital while holding our Kaya lovingly as we drove from vet to hospital and back home. She also took special care of Kaya and assisted in many ways as we went through this traumatic experience... giving us encouragement through the whole process of surgery and recovery. Kaya is happy and healed... and in no small part because of Jeri's prayers and support. We highly recommend Jeri as pet sitter. She will care for your dog as if it is her own.”
