This was the only difficult sit we have had in several years and 17 different sitters with TH. It was originally planned for 6 weeks and we always meet our sitters for an orientation and to get a "vibe". She could not meet us ahead of time. However, since she had a five star rating, we took a risk and left without waiting for her arrival which was much later than expected. By the end of the first week we were frustrated with her irregular and snarky communications. (She was often too "ill" or "tired" to give us updates on our aged kitty.) At one point we were afraid she might need medical attention since we were unable to reach her for almost 24 hours so we asked a neighbor to check on her which she found very upsetting. Later, when the neighbors complained that a man who appeared to be living out of his car was parking at different places in our neighborhood and going to our home to stay the night we'd had enough. Since we were 2000 miles away, we contacted TH and our neighbors for help and ultimately told her to leave. After our neighbors escorted her off the property we discovered the kitty box was overflowing and his fresh water dish was empty. Our closed off master bedroom was being used as a storage facility for her/their personal items. To her credit however, she did take the time to vacuum and straighten while the neighbors waited to ensure a smooth exit. A neighbor immediately changed the locks and the garage door code. A troubling experience.

Diane is a great dog sitter. She came to our house a week before we left, so we could show her everything she needed to know. We were in constant contact with Diane throughout or trip. Ziggy was well taken care off.  When we returned the house was very clean and tidy.

Ruth was an amaaaazing sitter. Wonderful and easy communication before the sit. She even came to meet us before hand as she was visiting the area with a friend. 

She cared for our two kitties beautifully sending regular updates and pictures (which we loved). Even Bean, our super nervous kitty, came out of hiding quickly and trusted Ruth 💓

The house was spotless upon return with bedding stripped ready for us to wash. We even came home to replenished oat milk, some food for us to eat on our first eve back and a gorgeous gift. Seriously generous!

We would welcome Ruth back in a heartbeat. Thank you Ruth xx

Rachel is a true dog lover and I could see how easy she connected with Moka. She took her for long walks played with her, was very responsive and sent us some pictures.
Thanks Rachel :)
