“Tasha was so lovely! This was my first time leaving Rocky due to a last minute family emergency and it was a great success :) we came by for a meet and greet prior to drop off and it felt great to be so confident Rocky would be in great hands. He had so much fun, lots of activities and play time. Tasha was communicative and sent lots of adorable pictures and videos. Rocky is not great with recall so Tasha’s husband made a zip line so Rocky could easily explore as much of their property as possible! They really went above and beyond in so many ways. Thank you so much will definitely reach out to Tasha again if Rocky needs a sitter in the area!”

“Louis and June are just amazing! Brie took to them almost immediately! Their home is beautiful with an amazing backyard with plenty of room to run. Their dog Hunter is very friendly and became fast friends with Brie! Highly recommend and would use again in a heartbeat!”

I would highly recommend Kelly to anyone looking for a daytime dog sitter.”

We hope we see her again. 10 ⭐️ recommendation from obsessive dog parents.”
