Lucy was a great caregiver for Cooper and Lola. I got photos and updates on how they were doing. It was my first time leaving them while going out of town. I felt comfortable with Lucy and would absolutely use her again!

Julia is always the best. She last minute allowed us to add our other dog and took incredible care of both of them. So flexible, kind, and caring for both our high energy and senior dogs.

Melanie went above and beyond taking care of our two fur babies, We were able to enjoy our vacation with ease knowing they were safe and in a loving environment. Melanie sent us photos and videos of our babies playing and walking daily. We could tell in the videos and pictures that they were having fun. I would recommend Melanie to all Fur parents who are looking for someone attentive, caring and has knowledge on taking care of pets of all ages and sizes.
