Rita was a fantastic housesitter. She was friendly, sweet, communicative, tidy and caring. Her love for animals is really wonderful to see. She communicated with me regularly during our two weeks away and was very responsive. She sent me sweet videos of our pets. I threw her a curveball at the end of her stay when the cleaning crew didn’t arrive as expected. She handled it with grace. I highly recommend Rita and her partner for any stay!
It was a pleasure to meet Melanie and Mark before I left on my trip. Grady took to them as soon as they came in the house and he clearly enjoyed all the attention they gave him. I felt completely confident leaving my pet and my home in their care and I was not disappointed. They had asked my preference on update communications and provided clear updates and photos. I returned to a clean home, a happy cat and my outdoor flowers were flourishing. I would highly recommend Melanie and Mark. Hopefully they are available for my future house sits. They are delightful, personable and reliable.
