We were thrilled to have Dan and Lana back for a second home/pet stay. Our first experience with them last year left quite an impression on us for so many reasons. They are incredibly attuned to our dogs' unique behaviors. Both are storied rescues. They have their antics and quirks and will push boundaries when given the opportunity. This second go round with our pups, Dan and Lana deepened their relationship with both. They strike a beautiful balance between being playful and working with each dog. As an example, Rupa often wakes up quite early and with unbridled exuberance. Dan and Lana find positive and effective ways to diffuse this energy so that all can move into the day more calmly. This same approach was used for meal time. They ask Freya to wait outside the kitchen as they prepare their meals. Rupa also waits for her food with less cattle dog drama! Dan and Lana are truly gifted when it comes to canine communication. Just as was true with their first stay with us, they shared dinner with us when we got home and relayed invaluable training tips as well as observations they made while walking the trails, playing fetch, etc. These are people we have complete trust in, making our travels completely worry free. They leave our home clean and well ordered making our return a breeze. Beyond their capacity to work with our dogs, they're wonderful people who we now consider friends. We feel honored and very fortuntate to have this relationship and will definitely call them back when next we travel.

Sandra and Richard were the perfect guests. They looked after our home and Truffles the cat just as we would have wanted. A lovely couple who ensured that we were given regular updates and welcomed us back with freshly prepared home-made soup. We would havethem back at any time and would thoroughly recommend them for any future house/pet sitting they may pursue.

Mark was a great sitter.  His communication before and during the sit increased my comfort level tremendously, including daily photos of my dog Beau out on walks.  Mark arrived as planned, was calm and easy company during our "get to know each other and my dog" time. He left the house wonderfully clean, and even washed and folded all the towels he used!  

I was initially reluctant to have a male sitter, because my dog Beau is primarily around women (I am a single older woman) and Beau is a bit cautious about new and different things.  Mark  asked several times before the sit what he could do to increase Beau's comfort level and lessen his anxiety.  Mark's calmness and quiet voice was a comfort to me, knowing Beau would react positively. What he did with Beau worked and Beau clearly enjoyed his time with Mark here.  I would certainly have Mark back as a return sitter.

I can’t say enough about Amy & John.  From our initial phone call to see if we would be a good fit, I was immediately put at ease. They treated my dogs as if they were their own. Amy is most definitely a dog whisperer!  They were both communicative prior to, during and after their sit. It made my time away even more special receiving pictures of my dogs as well as seeing Amy and John enjoying themselves at the house. I was able to totally relax knowing Fawn & Auggie were in exceptional care in their hands. I came home to a mowed lawn and a bottle of wine, totally unexpected, but very much appreciated after two days of driving. Amy and John went above and beyond in caring for my pets and my home. I cannot say enough good things, five stars aren’t adequate to describe Amy and John’s 10 star, red carpet service and care.

I had a wonderful experience sitting for Emily and her adorable dog, Hazelnut. Emily is incredibly sweet and accommodating, making sure I felt comfortable and had everything I needed during my stay. Hazelnut is such a joy to be around—friendly, well-behaved, and full of energy. It was a pleasure taking care of her. I highly recommend sitting for Emily if you have the opportunity. It was an absolute pleasure, and I would happily do it again!
