Claudia took such wonderful care of Bodie I truly couldn t have asked for a better sitter. She was warm, attentive, and clearly made Bodie feel right at home. I really appreciated the regular updates; it gave me so much peace of mind and I could tell he was happy, comfortable, and having a great time. It means a lot to know he was not just watched, but genuinely cared for. I would absolutely trust Claudia again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone thoughtful and reliable to care for their dog.

Rose was the best sitter for our girl. She communicated throughout her boarding, with pictures and updates and it was totally appreciated. We could tell our dog had a great time with her, as she was so calm when we picked her up! Highly recommend.
