Personalized care for your dog or cat - Smithwick
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Smithwick
“Becca was very easy to work with providing easily accessible information. She obviously has a great love for her own pets but also for those of others. Our Westie was returned to us happy & healthy. Her indoor and outdoor environment provided plenty of stimulation as she is only an almost 6 month old pup. We wouldn’t hesitate again to use Rebecca’s boarding service.”
“This was our first time using Rover, and we were a little hesitant at first. Michael and Julie suggested we meet at their home so we could see where Moxie would be staying and make sure she got along with their dog, Chompers, which immediately put our minds at ease. We brought Moxie over a few days early and she and Chompers got along perfectly right away. They have a great setup with a big backyard, and Michael took the time to explain how everything works since they’ve been doing this for years. Drop-off and pickup were easy, communication was great, and we received amazing photos and updates while we were out of town. Since this was our first time leaving Moxie with anyone, it meant a lot to feel so comfortable. 10/10 experience. Highly recommend and will definitely use them again!”
“Two-week stay that went perfectly. Lady received all the attention and care that we would provide at home, perhaps more! We will definitely be using Holly & Brady again in the future.”
“Erica is truly amazing! My 6 month old puppy LOVES Erica’s dog, Ella. Erica does an amazing job communicating and truly treats Doug as her own. We are so grateful to have found Erica!”
“Nathan was a great pet sitter! Left our 13year old lab with him and his wife for five days and everything went smoothly. You can tell they love animals and updated me on how our dog was doing often and with pictures. Our dog was in great hands. Would definitely book with Nathan again in the future.”
“Kara was great with my baby Siggi. I've recently moved and needed a sitter for a trip where I could not take my dog. Kara was able to accommodate my schedule and kept me updated while I was away. Siggi seems like she had a good time :)”
“Ashwani and his family took great care of my Dublin. I got great feedback and daily updates on my boy. He was also so understanding that our pick up time was going to be a little later in the evening than expected. Dublin can't wait to see them again. Thanks again Ashwani.”
“Chiao was absolutely amazing with Simba and Nala! From the moment we dropped them off, we felt completely at ease. She kept us updated throughout their stay by sending loads of pictures and updates, which we truly appreciated, it made us feel so connected even while we were away. It was clear from every photo that Simba and Nala were happy, comfortable, and getting plenty of love and attention. When we picked them up, they were relaxed, playful, and clearly had a great time. Chiao is caring, reliable, and genuinely loves what she does. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”
“We are so happy to have found Lucia! Highly recommend! Lucia and her family were so attentive and loving to Jake. She has a lovely home with a huge fenced yard. Jake has found his home away from home!!”
“Yisel and Victor are awesome! There was great communication, they were very accommodating, and I really appreciated the picture and videos. I look forward to booking their services again!”
“Leilani was awesome! She sent me plenty of updates and took care of my dog! She worked with me on my budget and was flexible when my flight was delayed by a few hours. Highly recommend!”
“Our dog, Shiner, had the best Christmas Ever with Judy and his new friends. I wasn’t quite sure he was going to want to come home. A big thank you for taking such good care of him. There is nothing better than being able to leave town and know that your dog is in the best care.”
“Bethany was so great with my boxer! We were nervous to leave them with someone they’ve never met before, but Bethany took amazing care of our baby and sent us pictures and updates to put us at ease. Highly recommend and would use her again!”
“Jimmye Sue was perfect for my pup! My little guy stayed with them for about a week right after the thanksgiving holidays and I couldn’t recommend them more. Daily updates with photos and videos, and some dog friends, treats, walks to keep my dog happy while I was away. They were really thorough on asking me questions about my pup too, so I felt really assured that my dog was in great hands. Pick up and drop off was super easy too.”
“Patrick was really patient with (Sarge) my bloodhound and kept me updated with photos and texts. Sarge wasn’t feeling well and Patrick took good care of him! Thank you again for keeping Sarge company while I was gone!”
“We are repeat clients of Julie, and once again, her care for our dog was as exceptional as ever. This time, we had to leave unexpectedly due to a death in the family, and Julie and her family were incredibly accommodating and understanding. Their kindness and flexibility made a difficult time a little easier, knowing our pup was in such great hands. We truly appreciate the love and attention they provide, and we'll continue to use Julie's services without hesitation. Highly recommend!”
“Gracie spent 8 days with Lynn for the first time and seemed to really enjoy her visit. She was perfectly at ease with Lynn upon meeting her for the first time and came home relaxed and happy. We will use her again.”

“Friends highly recommended Ashley and they had something like 10 cats for her to take care of each day!when my Naomi met Ashley she went to her immediately! She sent us pictures of her and of them playing, of her lil nook where she eats etc. Ashley is truly a kitty whisperer ! Smart and gentle and respectful - kathie and steve hamman”
“Kristen did such an amazing job caring for our dogs while we were away. Our plans changed slightly and she was very accommodating and responsive to help however needed, which we appreciated so much. Will use her anytime we can and highly recommend, thank you!”
“With Tristen, all relief that my little’s were safe and sound and attended to meant the world to me. I was free to be the mother of the groom and focused on my son, his bride and the different events in their ceremonially weekend 💗 Thank you Tristen, and for the photos too.”
“Nathan is amazing. He’s thorough and SO communicative. He sent pet pictures and videos the entire time, and even when Diesel was being a little hellion was so patient and even spent some extra time with him to calm him down. Please use him, you won’t regret it. He’s going to be my regular sitter moving forward!!”
“Michael did a great job! My dog’s love him! When I’m away, Duke only eats for him. He gives them baths also. Sometimes I’m gone working 3-4 days a week. I know that they are in good hands. That’s always a relief for me. My 3 dogs are so happy to see him. He has been watching them for 4 years now!! Thank you!”
About: I've been working as a dog groomer for the past two years, but had to pause that to focus on my health. I've volunteered walking dogs in animal shelters, and as a child mucked horse barns and brushed/washed horses in exchange for riding lessons. 😂 I've loved animals my entire life. I was raised in a family of 2-6 dogs (it increased frequently) and will admit only here that I loved them more than I loved my sister! I'm currently coming out of treatment and unemployed, so I have plenty of time to watch your furry friends! My only obligations are a weekly monday appointment and a biweekly friday appointment. I have a very nice, soft voice for any frightened pups, and am told I'm a bit of an animal whisperer. I will do my very best to connect with your animals and individualize my care in any way I can!
“Billy was able to accommodate a last minute booking while also keeping amazing care of my cat. I recieved updates through the week along with pictures showing how well my cat was handling the stay. Billy was polite and helpful throughout the process.”
About: I’ve loved and cared for cats my whole life, from playful kittens to senior kitties who need extra gentleness. I understand cat personalities and make sure each one feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m experienced with medications, feeding routines, litter boxes, and reading cat body language. I’m patient with shy or anxious cats and let them go at their own pace. Whether it’s cuddles on the couch, playtime with their favorite toy, or just some quiet company, I make sure your cat feels happy and cared for while you’re away.
“Kalli was awesome! She took excellent care of our pets and gave us regular updates so we didn't have to worry. I would highly recommend her and I'm sure we will be using her again.”
About: I have been dog sitting for various families in the greater Austin area since I was 15. I have experience with both puppies under 1 year and senior dogs. I love all kinds of animals and am passionate about caring for them well. I am currently in college, graduating in May where I plan to do pet care full time as I job hunt for my future career. I will have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I am young and fit, so I am very comfortable taking your pet for a long walk as well as just hanging out and spending time with them if that is more their speed. I am a clean person and have experience with caring for dogs in their own homes.
“Deonna was a blessing to have sitting both of our cats! She was very thorough following my care instructions and bonded with one of my more shy and timid felines pet 🐈. I loved the daily reviews from the visits and pics as well kept me from any worries. I would definitely have her care for my cat's again!”
About: I have had animals my whole life, my experience has entailed caring for dogs in their basic needs, maintaining training and working on other commands, as well as taking them to any appointments that were in order. I really enjoy time spent with dogs, and just like me I understand that most people consider their dogs to be family. I like meeting new dogs and learning all their little personalities. I would be great as a sitter or walker because I genuinely care about animals and feel that they make life so much more fun and enjoyable. I have experience with both larger breeds and small breeds so I am comfortable around all different kinds. I wish I could have more animals so this is the only acceptable alternative :)

Perfect for high energy dogs - Smithwick
“Wonderful family! Our goldendoodle was comfortable and had a great time. They were very flexible with our plans and made it easy for us on our trip to Austin! Thanks so much!”
About: Welcome to Your Pup's Second Home Hi there! I’m Gunja, and I’d love to welcome your furry family member into our home. Here, every pup gets the love, attention, and care they truly deserve because I know how hard it is to leave your baby in someone else’s hands. We have a large, private half-acre backyard that’s perfect for dogs who love to run, sniff around, and just be dogs. Whether your pup is a sprinter or a sniffer, there’s plenty of room to explore, play, and get some fresh air. It’s a safe, enclosed space where they can roam freely while I keep a close eye on them. One of the biggest things that sets my care apart. I’m home all day, every day. Your dog won’t spend long hours alone or in a crate waiting for someone to come check in. They’ll have my full, undivided attention from morning to night. Think of it as a vacation for your pup, with a devoted human who’s always around to play, cuddle, or just sit together. Medication & Special Needs: I’m fully comfortable administering oral medications, supplements, and following specific care routines. If your dog has dietary restrictions, health conditions, or a particular schedule they thrive on, I’ll follow it to the letter. Every dog is different, and I take those differences seriously. I also have a special place in my heart for senior dogs. Older pups need a little extra patience, and gentleness. Slow walks, cozy resting spots, careful monitoring is top priority here. Your senior baby is in good hands here. Our sweet Maltese, Milo, is the friendliest little guy you’ll ever meet. He loves playing with other dogs and has a way of making every new visitor feel right at home almost instantly. What You Can Expect • 📸 Regular photo and video updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing • Consistent feeding and routine based on your schedule, not mine • A calm, quiet home environment. No chaos, no stress • Lots of cuddles, belly rubs, and genuine affection • Open communication with you throughout the entire stay 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾 I truly believe that dogs aren’t just pets. They’re family. Trusting someone with your dog is a big deal, and I don’t take that lightly. Whether it’s a weekend stay or a longer visit, your pup will be loved and cared for like my own. I can’t wait to meet them! Being a stay-at-home-dog mom helps so much. Being able to spend all my time with my little pup is so fulfilling. I have all my time to devote to your little furry child and keep them happy and safe while they're away from home and their warmth. We have a pretty comfortable house with no restrictions for your pup. There is a massive backyard that they can have a great time getting their exercise or simply getting their tan on. Of course, they will get their regular walks and any enrichment activity they'd get at home. Milo (our pup) and I, are homebodies for the most part. We're always home to give 100% of our time and care to your pup
“Excellent communication and wonderful sitters! Flexible with my appointment and very attentive to Minerva's wants! Will definitely be using in the future.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs almost my whole life. After rescuing my pup, I thought I’d provide that same love to other small dogs. I’d love to house your small-medium sized pup so they’d feel right at home! My goal is to keep same sized dogs to keep them comfy instead of having mixed sized. I work from home and I’m available to be attentive to their needs. We live right by the complex’s dog park and have plenty of open area. We are a very quiet and safe neighborhood. Located on the first floor, we are just steps away from grass and the dog park our complex has. Everyone here keeps their pups on a leash while walking.
“She was very kind and accommodating with both pick up and drop off. She also gave very good photos texted to us during our pup's stay that me and my wife loved. I wish I could rate her higher I would definitely be using her services again the next time I need my pup looked after.”
“Swetha and Venkateswaran were great to say the least! As someone who is very detail oriented, I really appreciated the process and communication that they outlined. Would highly recommend having your pup stay with them. Thank you, Swetha and Venkateswaran!”
“We were so thankful that Satrishna was open to providing daycare on short notice for our dog Monty. Her dog, Fluffy, was a friendly playmate. Monty came home happy & tired from lots of playtime. Highly recommend.”
“Tristan did GREATT!!! She kept me updated on everything my dog was doing, and how he was doing, she was sending me pictures and videos left and right which was awesome!!”
“If you're scrolling & not sure who to choose...look no further. Leilani is the only pet sitter you need. An exceptional sitter who goes above and beyond. Her love for animals was obvious from the moment I contacted her. She treated my pet with so much care, patience, and genuine affection. She is reliable, attentive, and clearly passionate about animals. I received thoughtful updates, and my pet was calm, comfortable, and well‑cared‑for when I picked her up. A true professional with a big heart. Mario”
“Judy saved the day and helped us with our puppy. My puppy loves her and her 2 dogs are so kind and patient. She even helped with potty training. I highly recommend Judy.”
“Billy was great with our dog. Was awesome with updating us how he was doing during his stay. we appreciate him being an amazing sitter for our baby! And also not to mention going beyond with caring for Dolemite. We will definitely be going back to him when we come back through Texas. Love Billy and also Dolemite made a life time friend with Billy”
“Nicole was very good. Our girls had fun as we saw from the pictures and videos. Very much appreciated the last minute accomodations! We would definitely use Nicole again!”
About: Hello, my name is Lynn P. I am a mother with 2 dogs. I have a 7-year-old jack Russell terrier his name is Max. And I also have a 3-year-old Doberman name is Apollo. They're both very calm and loved and well behaved and loves to meet new friends to hang out with. Apollo and Max sure knows how to welcome new dogs in the house they're both very gentle and playful at the same time. I work from home most of my time through the week. So, they will get lots of attention throughout the days. I usually take the boys out 3x a day to stretch out their legs and burn off some energy. Don't worry your dogs will get the same love as my own dogs. I will care for your pets and make sure they are comfortable and safe. They will get more attention than my own dog probably. Just kidding. Not only you will gain my trust with your family dog, but your dog will also make new friends. Currently working from home most of the time of the week. I am open for new guest to join the club. I have two dogs myself and my daughter loves keeping them entertain. I have a balcony where they can go out to sunbathe both my dogs love doing that during the afternoon. But they don’t use it to pee or poop it’s only for relaxing if they want fresh air. I also take the boys out in the morning and afternoon and one last walk before bedtime. My boys get 2 meals a day along with their vitamins. And after a nice walk they will be reward for dog dental treat.
About: I’ve always had animals growing up, and I adore them. Spending time with animals is already something I do on my own, so being given the opportunity to earn money and help others makes it even better. Because this is something I really care about, I give my all. I’m honest and will always show up in a timely manner. I’m a very understanding person, so if anything comes up involving a time change or cancellation, I completely understand. I do want the best for the animals so I’d like any information regarding allergies, likes/dislikes, or anything that would help the animal in anyway beforehand. I request vaccination records before booking new clients to ensure the safety of my animals and myself.

About: Hello! I am a retired pet lover with a lifetime of experience raising and caring for dogs. Last year, my beloved dog passed away, leaving our home a bit too quiet. While I am not ready to adopt a new dog of my own just yet, I have an abundance of love, time, and attention that I would absolutely love to dedicate to your furry family member. Because I am retired, your dog will never be left alone for long stretches. My schedule revolves entirely around making sure they feel safe, secure, and loved. An Only Child Experience: We currently have no other pets in our home. Your dog will receive 100% of my undivided attention, care, and affection. Full-Time Companionship: I have plenty of free time to maintain your dog's exact routine—whether that means regular potty breaks, leisurely neighborhood walks, or just keeping them company on the couch. Experienced & Intuitive: Having loved and cared for dogs for decades, I understand their body language, their unique quirks, and how much they miss you when you're away. Because I am retired and my home is currently pet-free, pet care doesn't just fit into my routine—it becomes my routine. My schedule is incredibly flexible, meaning your dog will rarely, if ever, be left alone. A typical day with me includes morning and evening neighborhood walks, frequent backyard potty breaks, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. Because I am home most of the time, I can easily adapt to your dog’s specific feeding, medication, and nap schedules. Your pup will be a central part of my daily life, receiving full-time love and supervision In my home, your dog’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. Safety First: Since I do not have a fenced yard, your dog will always be securely leashed for all outdoor potty breaks and neighborhood walks. I never take risks with safety, and your pup will be under my direct supervision every time we step outside. A Comfortable Environment: Inside, my home is a quiet, peaceful, and pet-safe haven with no other resident animals to cause stress. Your dog will have full access to comfortable spots to rest right next to me, whether they prefer the couch, a cozy dog bed, or curling up in a quiet corner. Following Your Rules: I strictly follow whatever house rules you have established at home. If they are allowed on the furniture, they are welcome on mine. If they have specific feeding times, crate preferences, or medication needs, I adhere to them precisely to ensure their transition to my home is completely seamless.

“Shima has been awesome. Brice loves her daily walks and we didn't have to miss her walks while we were in town for the holidays. Shima was very accommodating around the weather and timing of the walks and it is clear that Brice enjoys her time with Shima. Thank you so much, we will be back in touch next time we are in the area.”
“Nicole has been fantastic to work with. Our fur baby is such an important part of the family, we are always cautious of whoever is caring for her. Nicole is not only very kind & professional, but also reliable and flexible. She administers our pups medications, spends quality time playing/walking her, and also has been kind enough to clean her up if she happens to get dirty. Our dog loves her! I can’t rave about her enough, we are so grateful to have found her! 10/10 recommend!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover based in Granite Shoals near Marble Falls, and I’m happy to travel within an hour of the Austin area to care for your pup. I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly believe they’re family—not just pets. I currently share my home with Josie, my sweet 10-year-old Pug, and Bella, my energetic 2-year-old rescue Pit mix. Having dogs at very different life stages has given me experience with everything from senior care and slower-paced walks to playful energy and enrichment. Over the years, I’ve regularly helped friends care for their dogs—whether that meant walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping them company while their humans were away. I pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and genuinely loving toward every dog I meet. I live a healthy, active lifestyle and enjoy trail walks and neighborhood strolls, always tailoring activity levels to each dog’s needs, age, and personality. Your pup’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your dog—feel free to reach out with any questions! My full time job is mostly remotely, which gives me the flexibility to plan my day around a pet’s needs. This allows me to provide regular walks, meals, playtime, and attention throughout the day. I prioritize safety, trust, and consistency. I follow each pet’s routine closely, ensure secure environments and safe walks, and treat both pets and homes with care and respect.

Most importantly, I guarantee your peace of mind through prompt, detailed communication, including photo and text updates of all our happy adventures! Pet care isn't just a part of my schedule; it is my schedule. As a full-time sitter, my days are structured around the needs of my animals under my care. This means there are no conflicting work meetings or commutes, allowing me to fully commit to your pet's schedule. I dedicate morning, midday, and evening blocks specifically to walks, feedings, and play sessions, with plenty of time in between for communication and customized care. When choosing House Sitting, your pet receives my full commitment to deliver Epic Adventures and Warm Hugs right in their familiar environment, which I think is the best choice for anxious or multi-pet homes. As your pet sitter, I like to get a detailed overview of your pets' exact routine (meals, beds, schedule) so I can minimize stress and ensure maximum comfort. Our days are filled with Heartfelt Hikes on familiar trails, keeping our adventures safe and enriching, and all potty breaks are timely and consistent. Beyond premium pet care, you gain added home security and peace of mind, as I handle basic home needs like mail and plant care with the same professional attention.

About: (New to Jonestown, from Houston!) I’ve taken care of all sorts of animals from a very young age. I realize I had a knack for caring for animals and also training animals. I dove into dogs psychology, and just kept learning more about how dogs communicate with each other and the boundaries that dogs set that goes unnoticed by humans and the respect that each dog needs to be given to earn their complete trust I am currently work as a realtor who just also really enjoys spending time out doors and with my dogs. So I decided that why shouldn’t I make others peoples lives easier by helping care for their dogs, I am already outdoors or just out an about. Let me care for others pets the way I would like my pets to be cared for. I have a completely fenced yard 8ft high. All gates are have a self shutting mechanisms. As an added layer to the protection of my yard. All gates have signs that indicate dogs are in the yard and gates MUST be shut at all times. I also carry a doggy fanny pack with an extra leash and treats to ensure comfort for the pets and their parents at all times when transporting them.
About: I started as a little kid taking care of my family dogs.As I got older I watched my grandparents dogs over night.Now I have dog name Summer "Animals aren't just a job for me – they're my entire world! Every day is an adventure filled with wagging tails, purring companions, and the joy of understanding what makes our furry friends tick. My home is often buzzing with happy pets, and I truly believe that living alongside them teaches us so much. This daily immersion in the world of pets means I bring not just experience, but a deep, personal understanding and endless patience to every animal I care for." "When I'm caring for your pets in your home, their safety and well-being are my absolute top priorities. I'm meticulous about following your specific instructions, maintaining routines, and ensuring a secure and comfortable environment for your furry family members. You can trust me to treat your home with the utmost respect and to provide vigilant, loving care so you can have complete peace of mind while you're away."

About: As a dedicated animal lover, I stand out with my deep understanding of canine/human interaction, and I offer personalized care tailored to each dog's needs. I am an expert handler of various breeds, administering medication, and creating a stress-free environment for your pet. With a genuine love for dogs and a knack for anticipating their needs, I ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and entertained while you're away. I have two dogs of my own, Rocky, a 5.5 yr old Belgian Malinois, and Lola, a 3 yr old Golden Retriever/Border Collie mix. Your pet will have all of the fun they can handle and will leave with 3 new best friends! I work from home 5 days a week and have incredible flexibility. I am home most of the of the time and when I am not, I am usually not too far away for too long. I can provide breaks and all the attention your pet needs almost anytime needed. I have 2 dogs to help keep your pups happy. Lola is the friendliest girl with lots of energy and an unrelenting desire to make new friends everywhere she goes. Rocky, is a retired police k9 who has the perfect balance of energy and calmness to welcome any new pup into our home. I routinely let them outside to play and use the restroom at a minimum of once every 2 hours. My pets are allowed anywhere in the house. It is two stories with multiple rooms so there are always places for them to have space if they need it. There are plenty of beds, toys, and friends to play with while they are here! I do have two large kennels that I never use, but if your pet prefers to sleep in a kennel in its own space, I am happy to provide that for them. Otherwise, they will be free to relax wherever they would like.

“Becca was very easy to work with providing easily accessible information. She obviously has a great love for her own pets but also for those of others. Our Westie was returned to us happy & healthy. Her indoor and outdoor environment provided plenty of stimulation as she is only an almost 6 month old pup. We wouldn’t hesitate again to use Rebecca’s boarding service.”
“Two-week stay that went perfectly. Lady received all the attention and care that we would provide at home, perhaps more! We will definitely be using Holly & Brady again in the future.”
“Tristan was awesome with my nervous dog and gained her trust super quickly. We did doggy daycare / day boarding and Tristan made sure Ricochet had lots of fun during her stay at her house. We were super happy with everything and plan to book again in the future.”
“Erica is truly amazing! My 6 month old puppy LOVES Erica’s dog, Ella. Erica does an amazing job communicating and truly treats Doug as her own. We are so grateful to have found Erica!”
“Nathan was a great pet sitter! Left our 13year old lab with him and his wife for five days and everything went smoothly. You can tell they love animals and updated me on how our dog was doing often and with pictures. Our dog was in great hands. Would definitely book with Nathan again in the future.”
“Susan was excellent with our two dogs and sent pictures to re-assure us that they were getting along fine with her dogs. She was very accommodating when I misjudged our drop off and pick up times. Our dogs seemed happy there.”
“Ashwani and his family took great care of my Dublin. I got great feedback and daily updates on my boy. He was also so understanding that our pick up time was going to be a little later in the evening than expected. Dublin can't wait to see them again. Thanks again Ashwani.”
“Courtney was so sweet with our little Bella and really went the extra mile to ensure she was comfortable while we were away. She gave us plenty of updates and overall was a fantastic sitter, giving Bella extra TLC! We will definitely book with her again!”

“Our dog, Shiner, had the best Christmas Ever with Judy and his new friends. I wasn’t quite sure he was going to want to come home. A big thank you for taking such good care of him. There is nothing better than being able to leave town and know that your dog is in the best care.”

“We are repeat clients of Julie, and once again, her care for our dog was as exceptional as ever. This time, we had to leave unexpectedly due to a death in the family, and Julie and her family were incredibly accommodating and understanding. Their kindness and flexibility made a difficult time a little easier, knowing our pup was in such great hands. We truly appreciate the love and attention they provide, and we'll continue to use Julie's services without hesitation. Highly recommend!”
“Gwen and Dalton take the best care of our sweet dog. They take him on walks, play lots of fetch and give him all of the love! I receive photos daily, which is nice. Their dog, Kato, is the sweetest guy and even runs his own Instagram account! Check it out - you won’t be disappointed! (@katobugandfriends) I’m already planning to use them for our next trip!”
“Gracie spent 8 days with Lynn for the first time and seemed to really enjoy her visit. She was perfectly at ease with Lynn upon meeting her for the first time and came home relaxed and happy. We will use her again.”
