Hi my name is Charlie. Where do I begin to express my gratitude for John? I am a recent widower. I decided to start travel. I wanted to see my daughters in California for Christmas and New Year’s and I really could not have done it without John. It was a difficult year and I did not realize being gone for three weeks I needed extra dog food. Of course Jon took care of that. He sent me photos of my golden and my cat and communicated with me while I was gone. I had the upmost confidence in John and I was not anxious about my pets while I was  in California. When I arrived home hungry and tired at 9:30 at night John served me a chicken broccoli and ziti dinner which I annihilated. I could go on. I decided a trip to Mexico mid February and John showed up again. He took my golden Murphy for a haircut and a shampoo at the groomers while I was away. I arrived home well rested to another marvelous dinner. I will be eternally grateful to John for taking such good care of my house and pets. I will give 10 stars if I could. Pet owners understand. Thank you John. Outstanding!

I seem to be lucky because I keep getting to meet wonderful people and enjoying great sits. Nancy and Rob are awesome and wonderful hosts. I got to spend some time with them before they left and they were very helpful getting me acquainted with the house and city.

Ari stuck by me almost every step I took and wasn't shy about occasionally wanting to be picked up. She took some getting used to but it didn't take long for us to get in sink with each other. While she occasionally barked at a mailman she never gave me any trouble. 

Cinder is a great cat. When Ari wasn't wanting paying attention or possibly sleeping, cinder would come over for some attention and sit in my lap for a few pets.

I already have another sit scheduled with them later this year and couldn't recommend them enough.

Holly
Sitting for Holly was an absolute joy!  You will seldom find yourself with an empty lap.  Olive is very sweet, affectionate and loves to cuddle.  Charlie is a bit standoffish at first, but once he gets used to you, he’ll be your best friend.  He’s extremely intelligent and loves to be challenged with games like hide and seek.  I would love to sit for Holly again, and highly recommend this sit.
