“Samantha took wonderful care of our two dogs. She provided detailed recaps of her visits along with pictures. We will definitely be repeat customers!”
2. Becky D.
“Becky is amazing! My ‘pup’ is going to be 13 years so he’s really a senior and I have to admit I am a bit protective! She learned about all of his needs and asked some great questions, which I really appreciated. She provided me with pics during her time with him and when I got home, it was obvious he was well cared for. I definitely recommend her and am so grateful to have found someone I can trust.”

8. Grace W.
“Grace was super responsive and did great with our dogs. For our 11-month old puppy, this was her first time with a pet sitter. Grace kept me posted on how the puppy was doing and made adjustments to make our puppy feel less anxious. Due to unforseen changes in our schedule, Grace was able to accomodate us with a second visit later in the day. I highly recommend her!”

19. Lauren H.
“Lauren is a fantastic pet sitter. She was great with our elderly cat (Stan loved her!), gave through updates and was patient with us as we can be worrisome pet parents when it comes to our old man Stan. Already hoping to work with Lauren for our future needs.”
20. Bobbie S.
“Bobbie is a very responsible, dependable and motivated young lady. For as long as I have known Bobbie, she has had pets and has always cared for them like they were a little brother/sister. She is compassionate, loving and a very happy young lady. She has fun with her animals now. I love how she is patient in training her dog: she speaks to her (Athena) with kindness and love and the love that Athena shows to Bobbie is obvious that she would be a wonderful dog caregiver. I highly recommend Bobbie for this position.”
