15. Cindy B.
“Cynthia and Nidal are absolute dog lovers extraordinaire! I had the pleasure of having them watch my fur babies while I was away, and I couldn't have entrusted them to anyone better. Their passion for animals is palpable, and their energy is infectious - my pups came back exhausted but clearly adored! Their communication was top-notch, with regular updates and photos that had me feeling like I was right there with them. The trust they built with my dogs in such a short time was impressive, and I appreciated the extra touches they added to make sure my pets felt comfortable and happy. If you're looking for reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely enthusiastic dog walkers, look no further than Cynthia and Nidal - your furry friends will thank you”

17. Robin R.
“Once again Robin (and Nutella) was amazing staying with Beatrice. She always goes above and beyond with walks and enrichment. This time they went on a hike and I know my girl loved it. Robin is so responsive and sends lots of updates and pictures. I never worry when Robin is with Beatrice because I know she'll be taken care of so well.”
18. Thomas C.
About: For most of my life, I have owned, loved, boarded, fostered, and/or cared for a broad range of animals, including dogs (small and large), cats (domesticated and feral), hamsters, rabbits, chickens, fish, one gerbil, one parrot, and a handful of reptiles. (I've also spent some time on farms learning husbandry.) From this comes experience with the full cycle of life with companion animals - birth, adolescence, training, advancements, setbacks, accidents, illness, aging, and loss. I'm no stranger to providing extra potty breaks for puppies (our interests are mutually aligned) or with giving daily medications. For the first time in many years, my home is without a pet of my own - let me dote on yours when you can't. I'm a retired(ish) attorney and veteran now working from home with plenty of time and attention to give to your fur babies. Regular walks and exercise are an important part of our routine. My property is ~ 2 acres, large portions of which are fenced but couldn't be properly described as secured. Your dog's temperament will determine whether it can roam / play / fetch unleashed, but in no event will dogs be outside unattended. Inside, I try to make my home as welcoming and comforting for your pets as I would hope would be done for mine - animals are allowed on the furniture and are invited to sleep where they please, unless you instruct otherwise.
19. Alexis M.
“She was great with Keira”
20. Veronica M.
“Veronica has been the best pet sitter we've had for over 5 years. What makes her so great? 1) She loves dogs. 2) She is responsible and reliable - she never cancelled or didn't follow through with the care of our pets. 3) She is mature, friendly, and professional. 4) Our dog (& cat) love her - Gracie, our Lab, would go right to Veronica and get lots of pats and friendly words in return. Bottom line, you can trust Veronica and know that she will give the best care to your pet because she loves what she does!”
