“Kaitlin is wonderful!! My Frenchie Dartagnan absolutely loves her! Kaitlin is very personable, friendly, courteous & responsible. She is also great at communicating. She sent me photos & videos of Dartagnan while I was away so I could see him. Dartagnan is very comfortable with Kaitlin. He ate for her which is saying something because he normally won’t eat while I’m away. He was playful & relaxed with her so this eased my mind while i was on my trip. Kaitlin is full of energy & will keep your pets entertained for sure! I knew Dartagnan was in great hands!! Kaitlin will take such great care of your furbabies! I highly recommend her.”
