“Kira was great! We hired her to come to our vacation AirB&B for two evenings when friends we were visiting didn't want animals in their home. Kira spent a few hours with our dog, so we could have dinner with our friends at their house. Kira arrived and was right away in control (clearly, she has some dog-handling experience), and our dog seemed happy. We'll definitely hire her again the next time we visit our friends!”
“Dahn took terrific care of my dog! She left me detailed messages and many photographs and videos throughout her time dogsitting. She asked questions if needed and left my house in same condition when she came. She even gave Shiloh a brand new chew toy and taught her a new game.”
