Second stay with Allison, our dog rushed to her when we got there which makes me feel great; she was obviously right at home!

We couldn t be happier with our experience having our dog stay with Kaitlan! From the moment we dropped him off, we felt confident he was in great hands. She provided excellent care, kept us updated, and made sure he felt comfortable and loved the entire time. Our pup came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well looked after. We highly recommend Kaitlan to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and attentive dog sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our boy!

Sarah is such an amazing and kind lady. I knew as soon as I met her I knew our dogs were going to have a wonderful weekend. Our dogs got in the house and made themselves comfortable immediately. The pups definitely appreciated playing outside as well as all the pets and cuddles she provided for them. Would highly recommend her!

Quinton was awesome! Sent updates and pics and even split our girls allergy meds up when one pill in the morning alone wasn t doing it. What a great caregiver! We look forward to using him and Wag again!
