7. Shelby J.
“Shelby is such an awesome spirit! I got called into work and she took my Golden Retriever Lilly last minute and made her feel right at home. Im very picky about who watches my fur baby. But after meeting her I was certain my Lilly would be loved and spoiled like I would treat her and she did. Shelby has a sweet dog named Wrangler and they hit off very well. She sent pics and vids all day showing my doggy having a great time chilling with her. I look forward to booking her more in the future.”

10. Marina S.
“Marina is an amazing caregiver. My wife and I are so pleased with the excellent care our senior dog received from her. Our dog wouldn't eat and became very ill just before our scheduled boarding service. I took her to the vet the day we dropped her off. Our dog was prescribed a few different medications. I let Marina know the situation and she was undaunted. She welcomed our pet into her home and did an amazing job taking care of her and administering her meds. The quality of care she provided was way above and beyond what we expected. She was very patient with our pet and nursed her back to good health. Marina also provided daily updates which we greatly appreciated, she even sent pictures. We are absolutely thrilled with the care Marina provided for our dog and hope we are able to make more bookings with her in the future. Mere words cannot adequately convey how caring, patient and talented Marina is when caring for animals. Thank you so much, Marina.”
