“Micaela was a lifesaver for us! Our previous dog sitter canceled last minute and Micaela swooped in and saved our vacation. She was extremely communicative, she shared photos of our dogs with us, she took very good care of our house and even better care of our dogs! We will definitely book her again the next time we travel and need to leave the dogs at home. I highly recommend Micaela to other dog owners in need of a caring and respectful petsitter”
“Rebecca was amazing! My dogs liked her the minute she came in the door! It was so reassuring to know Rebecca was caring for our babies while we were away. She also took excellent care of our home. We definitely recommend her for drop in visits or - as in our case - full time care in our home. We like to travel, and will definitely be calling Rebecca for our next trips!! Thank you very much, Rebecca! P.S. Avalon and Sierra miss you! ??”
“Melissa was an absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure our dog Riley was comfortable and well cared for while we were away. Riley is a very anxious dog, especially around new people, but Melissa made the extra effort to meet her a few times before our trip to help Riley feel at ease. Throughout our time away, Melissa sent us frequent updates and adorable photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. She even brought toys for Riley and left our house spotless. Melissa’s kindness and dedication were evident in every detail, and we came home to a happy, relaxed dog. I can’t recommend Melissa highly enough! If you’re looking for someone who truly cares about your pet and goes the extra mile, Melissa is the perfect choice.”
