Personalized care for your dog or cat - Estelle
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Estelle
“Jessica is outstanding in her quality & care that she gives to the fur babies she cares for. It was our fur baby first time being away from us and I think we were both a little nervous, but Jessica went above and beyond to comfort and reassure us. She is truly one of a kind when it comes to pet care. Thank you so much Jessica. Highly recommend! 🌟⭐️🌟⭐️🌟”
“Cheryn was wonderful! So kind, attentive, and caring. She sent lots of pics of my pup and regular updates. My pup loved staying with her, and I felt comforted knowing she was in good hands and having fun!”
“Aja was amazing! She was attentive to all the details- sent photos daily of our fuzzy babies. Aja is punctual, great communicator and outstanding pet sitter. I would give her 5 out of 5 in every way. Plan to use Aja for all of our animal care needs!! Thank you & Mom so much!!”
“Randy was great with the doggies! He has a nice big back yard that they liked running around in, or just laying in the sun on the patio close to the open door. But he went above and beyond by also taking them for daily walks, which they really enjoy. I would definitely recommend him and use his services again in the future. Thanks Randy!”
“I cannot recommend Elizabeth enough! While visiting New Orleans, I had to fly to Los Angeles for 4 days and needed a trustworthy dog sitter. Elizabeth’s reviews stood out, and after our meet and greet, I knew I had found the right person. She asked thoughtful questions and was so attentive to my pup’s needs, ensuring his best interests were top of mind. Her communication while I was away was excellent—she sent frequent video and photo updates, which put me completely at ease. I wish I lived in the area because I would definitely be a repeat client. Highly recommend!”
“Mike is just wonderful!!!! I left Napoleon with him for 2 weeks and I was so at ease that he was well taken care of. He sent several videos and pictures which always put a smile on my face. Napoleon is always having fun with Mike’s daschunds! I just know his physical , mental and emotional well-being are all met exceedingly! Thanks Mike!”
“Such a relief to find Michael for our old fur baby. Two days before our trip our dog opened a wound and Michael was able to provide the additional first aid our baby needed during his week stay. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our dog was being spoiled and taken care of.”
“We had never had to board our doggie girls before and I was nervous. Lynn sent daily videos so that I could see my girls adjusting comfortably and happily! The updates helped me enjoy our trip without worry. Her yard was spacious and clean-I told my husband they would never want to leave ‘camp’😁 Lynn will be our first choice whenever we need to leave our girls with someone.”
“Highly recommend Chayanne! She did a fantastic job taking care of our Corgi for a week while we were in Nola being tourists. She updated us with pictures and took excellent care of our baby. We will definitely book again.”
“Natasha was great! Easy and fast communication, lots of pictures of a happy dog when we were out of town. When our flights got delayed coming home, she was able to watch our dog for an unexpected additional half day, no problem. Would definitely recommend booking with Natasha as a dog sitter!”
“Ms Evlin was veryyy attentive to our fur baby. She kept us updated with photos daily; throughout the day. Her communication was great 😊 we’re very excited and pleased to know we have someone who cares for our fur baby as much as we do. Thank youuuuu again and again Ms Evlin. You’re PAWSOME 🐾”
“Stacy is amazing! He is reliable and great with dogs. You are in for a great precious treat when your dogs stay with him. I will only send my dogs to him. Highly recommended!!”
“The BEST. I’m an attached dog mom and I felt my baby was in safe hands while I was out the country! My flight got delayed but Ben was super flexible and helpful even though I got in past midnight. I will definitely be back if needed in the future! :)”
“This was my first time leaving my baby alone with someone and Brittany was the perfect sitter! She treated Soulja like family, checked on him constantly and made sure to keep me posted with updates. I can’t wait for him to go over again.”
“Anna took great care of our dog Rex! She sent daily updates, and I know Rex enjoyed his time with her adorable Corbin :) Anna was flexible with drop off and pickup times and offered to pickup extra food for Rex. I will definitely reach out again!”
“Jon was great! I had to leave town and had a last-minute Rover cancellation! Jon was incredibly easygoing and flexible in accommodating my nervous pup. Jon sent daily updates, which gave me such peace of mind. I’d absolutely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for dog boarding services in the Uptown area!”

“Thank you so much! I really appreciate the thoroughness and the kindness and the prompt visits! I will definitely be requesting you again when I have to go out of town!”
“Morgan is amazing! She sends a lot of pictures each visit! Even our shy kitten warm up to her quickly. We could truly relax on our vacation because we knew our fur babies were pampered as well! 100% recommend Morgan!”
“Claire was the best pet sitter for our fur babies! They were happy when we got home, and we weren’t worried while we were gone due to her keeping us informed and sending lots of pictures. She was also the most considerate house guest! She’s kind, caring and professional. I’d give her more stars if I could.”
“Upon our initial Meet & Greet with Adam, my partner and I immediately felt good about working with them. Adam’s sensitivity, attunement, and ability to relate to animals was present from the moment they were introduced to our cat, Gonzi. Adam spent two weeks house/cat-siting while we were abroad and took care of him with an attentiveness and affection equaling our own. We received regular video and photo updates during our vacation. (Adam is a filmmaker, so the videos were extra special). In the videos Gonzi was purring, and had clearly developed a close bond with Adam, something that is quite unusual for Gonzi. Adam’s messages and videos made clear that they are conscientious and thoughtful about how important such updates are for pet owners. As well as being very prompt in communication, Adam was also flexible. Our flight was late, and they kindly made an extra visit that evening after the stay had officially ended. Upon our return, Gonzi was happy and healthy, and had clearly been very well taken care of. Our home was very clean and tidy as well. Adam was a perfect cat sitter for us. Their Rover profile states, “Loving and Professional Care,” which could not be truer. We will have no hesitation in asking Adam to cat/house-sit for us in the future, and we recommend them enthusiastically to other pet owners.”

“Olivia was fantastic! So grateful she was available last minute when I had car troubles coming home from a trip. She was communicative and followed all instructions. Would definitely have her back!”
“Becks was amazing and super communicative the entire time I was away! I loved all the updates and photos that were provided, really made me feel like I was right at home. I would highly recommend Becks for your cat or dog needs. Couldn't ask for anyone better!”
“Chloe did a great job watching my Elton, who can be a high maintenance kitty. She sent daily pictures and updates. I came home to him happy healthy and relaxed. The house was neat and clean. I would highly recommend Chloe to anyone needing a pet sitter.”
About: I have experience helping out taking care of my sister’s cats when she was living with us. I used to be a little bit scared of cats but now I have come to understand that cats are different in how they show affection and how they want to be treated.
About: I have loved and cared for dogs and cats for over 35 years. Although I've been away from Rover for a while, I'm eager to resume pet care. I have a passion for making sure your pet gets the best TLC possible in any given situation. I've had dogs, cats, and others in home and farm/ranch settings over the years. Your pets are family to you and will be treated like family by me. I can take excellent care of them and make sure they stay happy while in my care.

About: I was always the one to take care of our families dogs while growing up, so I have a lot of experience! Smaller dogs, bigger dogs, senior dogs…does not matter to me! I am currently ending an Americorps term so I have all the time in the world to play with your pups! I also always appreciate a daily dose of serotonin :) I always make sure there are clear instructions or specifics provided by the client when watching their pups if necessary! A safe and trustful environment is crucial in this type of work, which is my number one priority. An attentive attitude is also crucial, especially when being in a clients home.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Estelle
“Always great to bring Hazel to Jessica. I never doubt or worry if Hazel is having a good time. And for spa day I never doubt that Hazel will come back clean and smelling great! Best Dog sitter my dog ever experienced!”
“Michael is wonderful. He was accommodating and able to work with our schedule. Our dog was very relaxed and happy when we picked him up. We will definitely be using Michael again.”
“Very happy! Will use Ashley again for my next trip to New Orleans! She updated me with pictures and made me feel more comfortable leaving Charlie for the day! Thank you so much!”
“Brittany did great with our 3 month old puppy! She was very patient with her and even taught her a new trick. Her dog, Jerry, was great with our puppy and we were glad she had another dog friend. We would absolutely use Brittany again in the future!”
“She was great! My dog needed a sitter for the day and she had no problems at all Cheyanne sent update pictures, had friends to play with, and was super happy way dropping off and picking up! Will definitely be returning!”
“Evlin is THE BEST! We needed to board our 1yo Frenchie while we were out of town for a week. It was his first time boarding so we were very nervous. Evlin was very knowledgeable about “flat faced” dogs so she knew how to walk him without overheating him. She kept us updated with daily photos, which made our kids very happy. She obviously loves dogs very much and is a very professional and responsible pet sitter. We can’t wait to have her watch our little buddy again!!!!”
About: Hi! We’re Noah & Roberto, a reliable and caring dog-sitting team based in Mid-City, New Orleans. We treat every dog like family and have years of experience, 50+ dogs. We live in a clean, comfortable apartment and currently have a 1-year-old Italian Greyhound named Gnocchi, who is friendly, gentle, and well-socialized. We understand the needs of small breeds, energetic puppies, and dogs who love routines. One of us works from home full-time, which means your dog will never be left alone for long periods. The other has a flexible schedule, so we’re able to coordinate walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention throughout the day. We offer dog sitting, daycare, and boarding, and we’re happy to follow your dog’s specific routine — whether that’s crate time, medication, special diets, or extra walks. We also provide regular updates and photos so you always feel connected and confident. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and comfort are our top priorities. We’d love to meet you and your pup! Pet care fits seamlessly into our daily routine. One of us works from home full-time, so pets are rarely left alone and always have supervision, companionship, and timely care. The other has a flexible schedule, allowing us to share responsibilities like walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. We follow each dog’s home routine as closely as possible — including feeding schedules, walk frequency, crate preferences, and any special instructions. Dogs are taken on regular walks, given time to rest, and engaged with toys and enrichment activities.
About: I provide attentive, individualized care designed to keep your dog's routine as consistent and comfortable as possible while you're away. Because I work from home and intentionally keep my boarding capacity small, I'm able to provide plenty of companionship, supervision, exercise, and individual attention throughout the day. To help you feel connected while you're away, I provide regular photo and video updates throughout your dog's stay. Every boarding also concludes with a personalized summary of their meals, walks, potty habits, behavior, and overall experience, so you know exactly how their stay went. I share my home with Tully, my friendly, well-socialized Golden Retriever. Because this is his home too, I prioritize good matches and a calm, comfortable environment for both resident and visiting dogs. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. As a university instructor with a flexible schedule, I have the flexibility to provide frequent walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. I care for every dog as an individual, following their normal routine as closely as possible while providing regular photo updates and a personalized boarding summary at the end of each stay. My goal is for every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I care for every dog as an individual by following their normal feeding, potty, exercise, and sleep routines as closely as possible. I require proof of current rabies vaccination before boarding to help maintain a safe environment for every pet in my home. I provide regular photo and video updates throughout each stay so you can have peace of mind while you’re away, and every boarding concludes with a personalized summary of your dog’s stay. My goal is to create a calm, clean, and welcoming environment where your dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for like family.
“It can be hard to find sitters willing to help with challenging dogs, and I have a very sweet pup who, unfortunately, has some separation anxiety that means she can’t be left home alone at this point. Julia agreed to watch her for some daycare while my husband and I attended a family birthday party, and she also was great about setting up a Meet and Greet about a week beforehand so that Sable could be introduced to Julia and her own pups. Julia sent pictures and updates while we were away, and I appreciated her honesty when I asked how Sable did. It seems as though Sable was only mildly embarrassing and didn’t put Julia through too much hassle, so I’m very grateful to have someone trustworthy and kind to leave my pup with! Thank you so much!”
About: Growing up, my nuclear family cared for roughly thirty cats, both indoor and outdoor. Naturally, part of my daily routine was feeding them all before getting on the school bus, keeping the litter boxes and surrounding areas tidy throughout the day, and of course providing AMPLE love to all. I have experience nursing abandoned kittens to health and maturity, as well as acclimating feral cats into the home. I am more than keen when it comes to feline behavior! (My mother used to "joke" that her four children should come together and open a vet clinic.) Today, my husband and I have a well-trained, 3 year old shepherd mix named Poet, whom we adopted at just 8 weeks old, and a 5 year old American bobtail kitty named Millie, who we also rescued. We both work from home and our animals are our absolute lives. Normal days for us include walks around the neighborhood, as well as trips to City Bark. We have a fenced in backyard for potty time, as well as sun bathing. Both as our animal have free reign of our home; they watch TV with us, answer email with us, snooze with us, cook with us, etc.! You can trust that your fur baby would be met with the same love, adoration, and care that we provide to our own. Both my husband and myself work from home and are able to provide near-constant care for your fur babies, whether that pertain to potty breaks or play time! We have a modest fenced in yard, as well as one dog and one cat of our own. Both are friendly with all species! We have ample space (spare bedrooms) to set up up a crate/kennel if desired.
“Ms Etta was wonderful! She responded very quick to my request as well as she is knowledgeable and will keep you updated on your pup! I had peace of mind knowing my sweet boy was well taken care of, she sent photos all day long and kept me informed on him! Saint came home and went straight to sleep😂😂 that’s how you know he had a blast! We will be coming back😁😁😁”
About: I LOVE all animals like they’re my babies💜. I have a safe fenced small back yard. It’s a passion of mine to be around your pets. As the the oldest of 5 much younger siblings and a former professional nanny, I am a natural caregiver! Now, I am an independent hairstylist that works for myself, and as an animal lover, I have naturally become many of my clients trusted go-to pet sitter, especially for in house vacation pet sitting. I am highly trained as a former animal foster (including the bottle babies that require so much attention and responsibility) and as a professional care giver. I also grew up with non-traditional critters including, but not limited to, hedgehogs, salamanders, iguanas, guinea pigs, gerbils, etc. so I’m cool with whatever you throw at me and very responsible! I follow YOUR rules and keep your babies safe and loved. I work for myself part time as a hairstylist. I make my own hours so it is very easy to not schedule on the days I am needed or to schedule large breaks in between. As a former nanny and elder millennial (lol) I am very responsible first! I always double check leashes, harnesses, doors, etc so you can leave your home feeling great with your guys in my hands. At my clients home, I very much like to follow their rules and instructions to the detail. I keep a photo and/or list of all instructions on my phone and a physical copy in my car. At my own home, I like to listen to what my clients feel comfortable with and follow that as discussed with them. I do like their pets to feel like I’m their loving grandma- they always get extra love and long walks when I come to see them!
“Alyssa is amazing! HIGHLY recommend. She took in my doggie for day care services somewhat last minute and made my rescue/anxious dog feel so comfortable and loved. She was super communicative throughout the day and always made me know my dog was being take of.”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and they’ve always been my favorite kind of company. I’m patient and keep things calm and low-key. I usually watch just one dog at a time, so you can rest assured that I will treat your dog as if they were my own. Since I work remotely, your dog won’t be left alone much and will get attention throughout the day. I make sure to follow whatever routine helps your dog feel most comfortable. Happy to send you photos and updates throughout the day as well. I’m flexible with pickup and drop off times. I will be with your pup all day, and they’ll get plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m happy to adapt to your pet’s routine. If they’re a high energy dog, they’ll get long walks. If they’re a senior or low energy, I’ll take them on shorter walks or just let them sniff in the yard.
About: I was raised with pets and have had a dog for over 30 years. Zara is my new sweetheart she's a shepherd husky mix and she's a year and a half old. I will only be dog sitting or dog boarding for ONE PUP at a time to give the utmost personalized attention.🐶♥️ I am retired and at this time I'm only offering drop off daycare and boarding Thursday through Sunday... We will only be outside in the cooler times of the day and can use the sprinkler if you allow. Your dog will be allowed on the couch and I am very good with giving specialized feeding as my dog has some healthy add-ons for her kibble daily. Again I will only be offering boarding and drop off dog sitting in my house... Thursday through Sunday personalized care for your dog only ♥️

About: My family has had at least one dog in our house since I was born. Everybody in my family has dogs. I have a few family members that rely on me to help them with their dogs when they need it. Everyone in my family treats their pets like they are humans and I do just the same! I am currently in between jobs so I’m available pretty much whenever. I do have my own dog at home so I prefer to not stay somewhere for a long, extended period of time. I am pretty flexible with that though so just ask me and I’ll let you know if it’s doable! I have a fenced in yard. I have a 14 year old rescue that just mainly stays to herself. There is a 1 year old Shih Tzu/Yorkie mix now living here as well, under the care of someone else that’s not me, however she is very rambunctious with other dogs. I do not mind walking them around the neighborhood. In my family, we treat our dogs like they are humans and they are like our children!

“Thank you Elaina for taking care of my pup Daizy…she enjoyed her walks with you I’m sure as for two weeks daily I appreciate your service! Elaina kept daily messages on how Daizy was doing and any issues that may have come up. I’d book with Elaina again!”
“Elizabeth was a fantastic babysitter our big golden retriever pup while we were out of town. She was in constant contact with us, sent plenty of pictures and updates about their romps, meal breaks, water breaks etc. And she kept the house spotless. I will most definitely use her services again. Thanks Elizabeth!”
About: I have had dogs all my life and have loved all of them with my whole heart. I have taken care of both my dogs from puppies until they have gone into their senior years. I also have experience during seizures, as one of my dogs has had them frequently. Also, experienced with care after procedures as my dog has had mass cell tumors removed a number of times. I am currently in law school so on Tuesdays and Thursdays I have one class from 2-3:14 and am off Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. On Saturday’s, I have work from 9:30-12:30. My dog gets walked a number of times a day. She runs around and exercise at various times. I would treat all dogs as I would my own.
About: I have had pets my whole life. Also, I prefer dogs but I have a couple years of experience helping out with my sister’s cats. I currently work remotely. So, I can be wherever you need me on any given day or time. I don’t normally work on weekends. I live with my girlfriend and her Boston Terrier ‘Haley’. She has a fenced in backyard to run around in and gets to chase around the ball a lot.
About: Since I was 7 years old, my family has loved two golden retrievers in our home in a town of Los Angeles. Rocky, our hyper and enthusiastic 1st one, was with us since I was 5 years old, and Spencer, the 2nd one I took care of, was a sweet senior dog who stayed in my family home until 2022 when he passed. My close friends and neighbors have relied on our family as the designated pet sitters for them because we love and respect dogs so much! We always think of our house as a mini dog-hotel during those times. With these experiences growing up, Rover has become the perfect place for me to help others with caring for their dogs in New Orleans. I am happy to walk/feed/bathe your pets whenever you request it too! I am currently studying for an exam for medical school. I would be happy to take study breaks as an opportunity for myself AND your pup to get some sunshine. I will be present with the dogs and take care of them to make sure your pups are happy. I like to keep my eye on dogs I’ve dogsat before, and I will be in contact if there’s anything unusual going on. I’ve let my dogs roam about the house, but if you prefer to keep them in an enclosed area, please let me know! Taking them for frequent walks or to the park is always nice too!
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and my current dog is the center of my life. I’m hoping to pursue a career in dog training and I love spending time with dogs and doing fun activities with them. I’m currently working part time with a pretty flexible schedule so I have plenty of time to spend looking after and playing with your dogs! I have a fenced yard and a very well behaved dog that gets along well with other dogs. I am happy to crate for the dogs safety and I will keep a close eye on them when I am home.
About: Passionate pet sitter committed to personalized care. Years of experience providing compassionate care, ensuring tails wag and purrs persist. I've worked with the SPCA, neighbors, and my own furry companions. Your pet's well-being is my priority! I’m a full-time petsitter so have flexibility to accommodate your schedule. I’m available during business hours or after hours for those requiring extra special care. I have a secured home where pets can roam, and a fully-fenced backyard. Depending on your specific needs, your pets could spend time with me indoors, on walks, at the dog park, and with me in the backyard, if weather permits. Pet camera shared with you while you pooch rests while you're away.
About: Hi! I’m Eden, an animal lover with both personal and professional experience caring for pets. I’m currently a Veterinary Assistant at Château Veterinary Hospital in Kenner and am attending Delgado Community College to become a Veterinary Technician. I share my home with 8 amazing animals, so I’m comfortable caring for pets with all kinds of personalities and needs. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication, litter box cleaning, potty breaks, or just plenty of love and attention, I’m happy to help. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m committed to providing a safe, reliable, and stress-free experience for both you and your pets. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! I have 8 animals and I take care of them everyday. I look forward to taking care of your fur babies!!! I also work at a vet hospital. I have a fenced yard and all of my animals love dogs. I have a very nice spacious home and a couch for the babies to lay.
About: Hey there- I’m Diana and I have always loved animals from the bottom of my heart. I am a Rover sitter and use Rover for sitters for my own pets when I’m out of town, so I personally understand the significance of trusting a sitter with your animals. It’s never easy to leave the fur babies at home, and so I do everything I can to make them comfortable and loved till you’re reunited. I’m good at juggling responsibilities and remembering small details, which makes my care attentive to the unique needs and personality of each pet. I choose to do pet sitting and walking because I can’t have as many of my own pets as my heart desires. I would be happy to care for your furry one and spend genuine time ensuring they are having the best time in my presence! Thank you for trusting me with your sweet family and I know we will have a great time. I work from home right now doing program management for local nonprofits, so I can be flexible with caring for your pets with some notice. I don’t mind early morning or late night care. We are newer to New Orleans and enjoy getting to know different neighborhoods. I take notes of all the details you share about your home and care for your animals to make sure I have a thorough understanding of their needs and usual routines, and anything to be cautious about.
About: Hey, call me Sunny! I've worked with dogs for several years now! I work at Mid City Animal House and do at-home pet care on the side. I love all animals so much, but I'm very partial to dogs. I love spending time with them and taking plenty of pictures! I have people recommend me very often for pet care to others. I believe in going above and beyond! As previously stated, I work at Mid City Animal House full time, so I do have a bit of a limited schedule. I work from either 6:40am-12pm or 12pm-6pm give or take. But I'm always open to discussing working around these times! I have prior experience with staying at clients homes for extended periods of time. I believe in respecting your space and your animals. I clean up after myself and any messes your pet may make. I respect privacy and any areas of your home you may not want me to enter. I also have experience with administering oral medications for any pets who may need it.
About: Hi! I’ve spent the last 11 years as a Paramedic and, while I love helping people…I love helping animals too! I’m a lifelong animal lover with a deep passion for caring for pets of all kinds. Ever since I was a child, animals have been a central part of my life. My family often took in dogs and cats in need, and I even bottle-fed orphaned puppies and kittens many times, helping them grow strong and healthy. Those early experiences shaped my calm, patient, and nurturing approach to animal care. Being a Paramedic has taught me how to remain calm under pressure. Also, that no one person is the same and will respond the same. Every person is unique. I believe animals are the exact same way! I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and understood—especially while their family is away. Whether your pet(s) are energetic and playful, shy and reserved, or somewhere in between, I take the time to understand their unique personality and adjust my care to meet their needs. From walks and playtime to quiet companionship and cuddles, I’m here to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m dependable, attentive, and highly communicative. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a beloved family member, so I always prioritize reliability, punctuality, and clear updates. I’m happy to send photos/videos, and messages so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away. We can even FaceTime! Although I’m currently unable to have pets of my own where I live, that has only deepened my appreciation for every opportunity I get to spend time with animals. Caring for pets is something I truly love, and I treat every one as if they were my own.

“Mimi was an awesome dog walker help! She always came on time to pick up my German Shepherd and left photos every time. I would highly recommend Mimi. She really seems to know what she is doing, and she is punctual and reliable. My dog took an immediate like to her.”

“Jessica is outstanding in her quality & care that she gives to the fur babies she cares for. It was our fur baby first time being away from us and I think we were both a little nervous, but Jessica went above and beyond to comfort and reassure us. She is truly one of a kind when it comes to pet care. Thank you so much Jessica. Highly recommend! 🌟⭐️🌟⭐️🌟”
“I cannot recommend Elizabeth enough! While visiting New Orleans, I had to fly to Los Angeles for 4 days and needed a trustworthy dog sitter. Elizabeth’s reviews stood out, and after our meet and greet, I knew I had found the right person. She asked thoughtful questions and was so attentive to my pup’s needs, ensuring his best interests were top of mind. Her communication while I was away was excellent—she sent frequent video and photo updates, which put me completely at ease. I wish I lived in the area because I would definitely be a repeat client. Highly recommend!”
