“I recently had the pleasure of working with Shawna as a dog sitter, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! From the moment we met her, it was clear that she genuinely love animals and prioritizes their well-being. Shawna took the time to get to know my dog, ensuring that he felt comfortable and secure. Throughout the stay, she provided regular updates and adorable photos, which eased our minds while we were away. Our pup was happy and healthy, clearly having enjoyed his time. Her attention to detail was impressive—she followed my care instructions perfectly and even went above and beyond with extra playtime! We highly recommend Shawna to anyone in need of a reliable and caring dog sitter. We’ll definitely be booking her again for future trips!”
14. Katherine & Lucas B.
“If you need a reliable pair to watch your pets, then I highly recommend Katie and Lucas for any pet sitting needs! I know I can always count on Katie to watch my two cats, Ham and Pepper, whenever I need to leave town and can't bring them along. She is very communicative and sends pictures of them everyday to let me know that they are in good hands! She also makes sure to go over any instructions I give her and will reach out if she's unsure about anything. Katie and Lucas are both great with dogs as well, making sure to take them out on long and fun walks every day and give them plenty of play tine. Your pets will feel just as loved as if they were Katie and Lucas' own, and I couldn't recommend them enough!”
15. Anna T.
“Multiply those stars by three at LEAST -- Anna took amazing care of Jeepers! I got daily photos and videos of him and his food consumption, and he apparently loves Anna more than me now. 🤣 Highly recommend Anna and will be asking her for return visits after the New Year! So many thanks for taking such good care of my boy. 💜”
