Joseph took care of our cat and house-sat for us for 2 weeks. In advance of our trip, we were able to do both a virtual and in-person meet and greet to ensure everyone felt comfortable and do a walk through of the house, which we really appreciated.While we were away, Joseph responded quickly to texts/any questions we sent and provided photo and text updates every 1-2 days. Upon our return, our cat seemed happy. Unfortunately, the day of our return, Joseph accidentally locked himself out of our house. He communicated with us and we were able to provide him access to a backup key. However, when we returned home about an hour and a quarter later, we were surprised to find that he was still there (he was supposed to have left much earlier in the day before we arrived home, and we knew he was running a little behind because of the lockout, but he didn’t tell us he would still be there when we walked in). He texted us that the house was clean and ready for us, but unfortunately the house was not clean and the cat litter boxes were quite smelly and appeared not to have been changed or scooped in many days. While we realize that getting locked out of the house created some delays in getting packed and tidying the house, we were upset to find the kitty litter in that state and for the clear disorganization, at least in the final day. We provided this feedback directly to Joseph and hope that this was a one-time experience. However, we would urge clear communication around any expectations for cleaning, communication, and care.

It is was such a joy having Amy and her husband Kory stay with our pups for a second time! Craig and I knew we would truly be able to relax on our trip knowing our doggos were in great hands. Amy sent us photos and updates daily for how the dogs were doing! She was so cleanly and even washed her sheets and cleaned up poop on our backyard, way above and beyond what we could ever hope for in a dog sitter. We look forward to seeing Amy on her next trip out here and I know our dogs will be really excited as well!

Rachel did an outstanding job looking after our cat and our home. She was responsive, proactive, resourceful and helpful, and our kitty was clearly well loved and cared for. Rachel reached out daily with photos and updates, responded in a timely manner to our questions, and left our home in tip-top shape. We would be thrilled to have Rachel back anytime for a future sit and highly recommend her.

We have a larger space with many plants and two dogs - Chino stepped in at the last minute to help us with all of them for 3 weeks. He was pleasant and communicative about his travel plans, the dogs, and any challenges that arose. Chino left our home in a good state after a long stay and it was such a relief to know our pets were in good hands!
