"Ariana was a good communicator and was able to help us on short notice. She notified us immediately when one of our dogs snagged a dead animal (she is sneaky and very fast!) and made sure she knew where to find the treats. Would definitely hire again!"

Animal lover, experienced with dogs, cats, fish and all sorts of little four-legged friends. Open to reptiles as well, though I don't have much experience with them. We do have one very cool cat at home, but am happy to board so long as the fit is right.
