Chasity was a great sitter! She sent lots of pictures of Levi and gave him tons of cuddles while we were gone over the weekend. Would definitely recommend her services!

Samuel was excellent. He picked up and dropped off on time. He sent pictures and gave our dog her medicine.

Ripley was so great! My pup absolutely loved spending time with her while I was at work. Her communication was prompt and thoughtful, and I really appreciate that she took my pup for multiple walks throughout the day including a long one. Will definitely be booking with Ripley again in the future, she's a true professional
