Jolene was incredible! We were strangers to her yet she rearranged her own travel plans so she could sit for our critters. She is unflappable, too. With Hurricane Dorian looming in the news, she didn't hesitate to come on, content to hold the fort come Dorian or high water! (Fortunately, the storm held off, and waited for our return). She left the house in beautiful shape and the pets looking well-cared for. Oh, and her dog Penny is as sweet as can be and was no threat at all to our little Schnauzer and 3 cats. I would invite Jolene back in a minute--no, sooner! Very likeable, capable and ready to roll with circumstances.
Greg was absolutely wonderful! His communication was excellent both before and during the sit. He arrived just before we left to ensure a smooth hand-off. This immediately put our dog at ease. He was quick to respond to messages and sent several pictures and text updates every day. Greg gave all our animals so much love and attention and seemed to genuinely enjoy his time with them. He took our dog on several long walks every day and followed our pets' routines perfectly. Greg was extremely tidy - we returned home to a very clean house and a very nice welcome home gift. He was just an all around nice guy, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. We would welcome him again in our home anytime!
