9. Dee B.

“I had very specific needs for my two dogs with regard to rotating them and walking them, and Dee was very attentive to both my boys’ needs. I don’t trust many people with my dogs, but was in a pinch due to a last minute switch in holiday plans around Christmas - I trust Dee 100% with them. I would recommend Dee to anyone in the area who needs such services, and I have already recommended Dee to my sister. I know I can count on Dee and plan on using her services again in the future.”


10. Olivia R.
“My family and I are so grateful to Olivia for taking such wonderful care of our dogs Duke, Finn, and Mo. Duke, our little old man with health issues, requires extra attention and care, and Olivia was incredibly mindful of his needs. Finn, our anxious boy, loves her, which was such a relief knowing he was getting the calm and support he needs. As for Mo, he adores Olivia (and vice versa), who kept him entertained and happy. We could tell that Olivia truly cares about our pups, and they all seemed so happy during their time with her. We’re thankful to have someone who not only understands our dogs' individual personalities but also treats them with love. Highly recommend Olivia as your dog sitter!”
