We are so grateful for the excellent care Sejal provided for our rescue dogs and pet chickens. Our younger rescue dog, Molly, is anxious and usually misses us terribly. We explained some of Molly's issues when interviewing Sejal for the sit, and she showed tremendous compassion and asked very good follow-up questions. Sejal agreed to meet us at the dog park before coming to the house to help Molly gain comfort with - and trust for - her. This worked really well, and they were best friends surprisingly quickly. Sejal was also very gentle and thoughtful with Lily, our "vintage" rescue dog. She sent us daily photos of our pets, and updated us with the chickens' and dogs' daily activities, which was greatly appreciated. She showed genuine care and concern for our pets, which was very comforting. We stayed in touch throughout the sit, and I enjoyed hearing about Sejal's San Diego outings. I had made a lot of suggestions - restaurants, beaches, etc. - and left some guide books out for her, as I wanted her to have a great time while here. I enjoyed hearing about her San Diego explorations. I'm so glad she enjoyed her time here, and my husband and I are so happy she offered to care for our pets again, as we would love to have her back. Thank you, Sejal, for taking such lovely care of our pets. I'm surprised Molly didn't stow away in your luggage, as she clearly adores you. She keeps asking when "Auntie Sejal" will be back. :)
Ying and Jax took excellent care of Speckles and our home. Ying kept us updated and we felt completely relaxed on vacation knowing our dog was in such caring, capable hands (and paws.) Our home was clean and tidy when we returned and Speckles was happy, yet clearly missing Ying and Jax. We look forward to having them sit again soon!
