Allahu did an amazing job taking care of both our dog and house for 2 months. He was always very conscientious, trustworthy and communicative. He even had to take our dog to the vet twice and was diligent about following the after care instructions. I would highly recommend him!
Dyanna did a good job watching our home and cat while we were gone, but we don't necessarily feel our home was really cared for. Nothing broken or damaged or anything bad like that, but the plants we asked to be watered were not watered and subsequently died, and plants are very expensive to replace! Some things weren't put back where we left them and some things were not cleaned up (e.g., dried up cat throw up on the floor). She sent a few updates during her stay and our cat seemed happy to have her company and cuddles. She did lose the cat for a day - either locked in the basement or she let her out (she's not allowed outside) and we don't know which, she did not communicate that to us. I don't necessarily not recommend Dyanna, this just might not have been the best fit for us.
