1. Aaron C.

“Extremely pleased with the care my anxious pup receives while at daycare with Aaron, especially since this is Hemi’s first daycare experience. Aaron was very in tune with his needs and preferences, helping him socialize with other dogs in his care but also allowing him to have some alone time when he needs it. Also, really pleased with the flexibility Aaron allows around pick up and drop off times. Hemi always comes home happy and tired.”

“Annie is absolutely awesome for pet care. I was introduced to her through a mutual friend and have used her multiple times to pet sit my whole pack (2 dogs and 3 cats). They all love her and get excited whenever she shows up, even my special needs grouch of a cat! Knowing she was a certified tech for many years as well gives me extra comfort since I know if something ever happens they are in good hands. The animals love hanging out with her, and I am glad to have someone I feel safe leaving them with in my home.”

“Alexandra was wonderful and an affectionate sitter! She accommodated our crazy schedule when setting up our initial meet and greet. The minute she saw Brooklyn, and Brooklyn saw her, we could tell they were going to enjoy each other's company. Alexandra mentioned her prior experience with dogs and having always been a "dog person". During our trip out of state, Alexandra coordinated closely with our friend who had been caring for Brooklyn long term, while she took Brooklyn for a couple days to allow for our friends to attend a few activities they had planned. I look forward to booking Alexandra again!”
