Lynn and Jim are not only exceptional pet sitters but they are also a wonderful couple. They came in a day early to meet us and Bays and it was like seeing friends you hadn’t seen in awhile. We knew right away we had made the right choice with them as our “zeewoi”. Not only did they take immediately to Bays but they were genuinely interested in his routines, likes and dislikes and any issues he might have. Jim asked me a question I hadn’t really ever thought about, what does Bays really like to do? I now know the answer. Swim! Jim and Lynn indulged Bays in daily swims and amazing walks. How do I know this? Everyday day I received a picture or a video worthy of the Orvis catalog and a little update, which I love. We were in Europe so these little updates were how I began my day. In each and every one Bays was thoroughly enjoying himself which gave me the reassurance I needed. There really aren’t enough superlatives to express how incredible we thought Jim and Lynn were. I would be thrilled if they wanted to come back and sit again and we even plan on traveling to VT so we can see them again. These pet sitters should be on the top of anyone’s list. You will not be disappointed.
Nora is an absolute gem! Once again, she took excellent care of our kitties, home and garden. We had arranged for our house to be cleaned after she left but the cleaner got the dates wrong and didn't show up...but Nora had left the house spotless (with fresh sheets on our bed!) so we came home to happy kitties, perky flowers, and a clean home. You and your pets would be lucky to have Nora!
We were lucky enough to have John & Sarah visit us for ten days in November. What a pleasure they were - genuinely good people! From the start, they were organized, friendly, accommodating, reliable and communicative. I didn't worry the entire time I was abroad, they sent regular updates and photos, and you could tell the dogs were being really well cared for. When I got home, they had left really sweet flowers and photos of the dogs and my house was IMMACULATE. Such a treat to come home to - I dare say, even cleaner than when my cleaner comes to visit! 😄 If you have the opportunity to have John & Sarah stay at your house, jump at the opportunity!
