I had an amazing experience with Debbie, Heinrich and their lovely boys. They were fantastic house guests and my dog, Leo, loved them!! The communication was perfect right from the start. I was a little nervous because this was my first time having house sitters in my home, but Debbie is a pro at this and she made me feel very secure with the process. When they arrived, they basically took over and allowed me to go on vacation knowing that my home and dog were safe and secure. I received daily updates and cute photos of Leo, which were welcomed. When I returned, my condo was in immaculate condition (better than when I left it). I can’t recommend Deb and her family enough. They’re flexible and resourceful and have loads of experience with pets, so it makes leaving town so much more relaxing. Thank you!
I cannot recommend Erin and James highly enough or be more grateful. We were out of country dealing with several challenges and never once had had to worry about our dogs, who for some would be a lot to manage given their size and strength. Erin and James took our beloved dogs on lots of varied walks responding to their needs and the hot weather making provision for them to cool off and swim. Our dogs had a vacation and an excellent time, they were well taken care of, our house was cleaner and tidier than we left it! So grateful. Wonderful trustworthy capable caring and intelligent couple. We would have them back anytime.
