She really is one of a kind !!”

18. Aiyana R.


“It was our first time booking Aiayana and she did a fantastic job taking care of my dog during the holiday season. We loved her personality right from our first meeting! Aiayana kept us updated by sending pictures of Ginger's daily routine and she went the extra mile when my dog had an accident on the carpet. Additionally, she left the house spotless and even cleaned my cat's litter box, which was not a part of her job. We'll definitely book her again!”


19. Rebecca A.

“Rebecca was exceptional!! She kept us updated with consistent updates/photos. I could tell my boys were well taken care of. She was really flexible and accommodating of our needs. She gave our boys lots of love and snuggles. Rebecca is extremely reliable. It was very comforting knowing the dogs were in such good hands. We will definitely be rebooking with her in the future!”
