“Carmen and Daniel were excellent dog sitters! I needed a sitter for my dog Queen while I was at work. They were so easy to work with and Queen loved her time with them! She was exhausted every night I picked her up because she got to play with their puppy all day. I will definitely bring Queen to them again and recommend them for anyone who needs their baby looked after!!”

11. Lauren R.
“Lauren was awesome and Tucker absolutely had a blast hanging out with her. She is very accommodating and very responsive which I really appreciated. sent lots of updates which I appreciated as well. I am usually very picky with babysitters and was hesitant having strangers watch him but I have nothing but positive things to say. She took Tucker on a little field trip and gave him lots of play time outside and attention which is his favorite. Safe to say he came back happy and tired. Win win for both of us. 😁Will definitely be using her again when we come back to Va!”
