Crista E.
“We couldn’t be happier with our experience. Crista was warm, attentive, and clearly experienced with pups who have big personalities in small, fluffy packages. While we were gone our dogs got plenty of playtime, cuddles, and love, just like they would at home. It’s such a relief to know our fur babies are not only safe but genuinely cared for. We came home to two happy, relaxed, and very well-snuggled dogs. We highly recommend this sitter to anyone looking for someone who truly treats your dogs like family.”
