Glenda and Martin were amazing pet sitters for my 3 girls. Before the actual sitting started we made arrangements for Glenda and Martin to meet the dogs as the dogs are rather large and they can be a bit intimidating when met all together, but Glenda and Martin were so natural with them and obviously liked them from the start and our girls relaxed very quickly with them. Glenda and Martin stayed with us for roughly an hour getting to know how we handled the girls and how the girls responded to their instructions, and I think were very pleased that the girls were so good. We explained the differences in them and medication requirements etc. and Glenda and Martin took it all on board. We made a second date for Glenda and Martin to come back and take the girls for a walk as they are big and a sitter needs to know if they are easy enough to walk. The girls passed their test, they are not perfect but if you know of any problems and how to respond to them then that is most of the battle won. The day came for us to leave for our break and as usual Glenda and Martin arrived in time for us to feed the girls before we left as we needed to show them how the girls get fed, i.e. where they like to sit and they have to wait before they get the command to eat. All went well and off we went. During our time away (1 week) Glenda kept me informed with texts and videos and photos regarding the girls and they all seem to have got on very well, so well that I thought the girls would have their bags packed and want to live with Glenda and Martin. We would be very happy to have Glenda and Martin sit for our girls any time, they were clean and tidy and left the house as they found it. This was the first time we have used a sitter and found the proposition of leaving someone in our home a bit daunting, but have got to say that our sitters left us happy to leave our home and our precious girls in their care. If I could give them 10 stars I would.

Igor and his son were great with my pups. Although there was a bit of a surprise when they arrived at my home, my husky, Calypso, was VERY vocal on their arrival and there was some hesitation on entering my home to let the pups get to know them -- thankfully, with the help of my best friend stopping by, they were able to enter and everyone became friends. It looks like the pups were treated well in my absence, and my home was clean upon my return! I didn't get many questions from Igor during his stay, so I'm assuming all went well!! He was very responsive to any messages I sent and he really followed all of the guidelines for home/pet care :) I would definitely recommend Igor! I, also, recommend that the owner and Igor have a meet & greet prior to their stay, even if Igor shows up just a half hour before the owner leaves. This will make the pets more comfortable for the stay and Igor less of a stranger :)

Millie and Brent provided amazing care for my French Bulldog and Cat, at very short notice! They were communicative from the outset, I felt very comfortable leaving my home and pets in their care and my house looked better than when I left. Both pets were very relaxed and happy when I returned and I received wonderful pictures of them all out together. I feel very lucky to have found them.

John Mark and Beth were wonderful pet/house sitters and we loved having them stay at our home and care for our pets. We returned to a spotless home and the animals were well cared for. Communication was great and we would definitely recommend them (and would love to have them back)!
