“Kelly stayed with our beloved dog and cat for two nights. This was the first time we've ever left them with someone other than one of our family members. I trusted Kelly because of our dog's immediate affinity for her. She is usually suspicious of people she doesn't know, but she loved her! Kelly came over twice to just get acquainted and to learn our cat and dog routines and while we were gone, sent us updates with pictures several times a day. Very responsive, friendly and pleasant to work with. I highly recommend her! Thank you Kelly!”

It's such a relief to have Kortney, whom we can wholeheartedly trust with our babies.”
