I highly recommend Deborah and Tom for your house sitting and - more importantly! - animal sitting. We were fortunate enough to have them look after our 1912 house, our elderly cat and our active young dog for six weeks this spring. We couldn't be happier with their care of our home and for our animals. (And we are very particular about care for our animals.) > Their stay was complicated by the fact that the week before we left, Joe, our 16-year-old cat, was unwell. He was on the mend by our day of departure, but we left knowing that if his condition returned, we might have to make decisions from abroad about his care. Deborah and Tom knew about his condition. We felt comfortable knowing that if difficult decisions had to be made, they were just the people we would want with Joe. Fortunately, in their care, Joe thrived, and we came home six weeks later to a cat you'd never have known had been sick. He's also a very shy cat, but grew comfortable within days with Deb and Tom, even allowing Deb to pick him up (the only person other than me and the vet who has been able to do so!) > Our dog Poppy is a three-year-old rescue from Mexico with a lot of energy who is also sometimes reactive to other female dogs. Deb and Tom met with us in advance so they could learn how we deal with that (positive reinforcement when she doesn't react) and all went well. Poppy is so in love with them that she literally bowled them over with her enthusiasm when she got to see them again after their house stay. You can always trust your dog's reaction to people. > We have a character house with a large garden. Deb and Tom cared for both beautifully. > They are also very easy to deal with and are excellent communicators, keeping us posted on things as needed. They are dependable, responsible people who will love and care for your pets and your home. > They're so great that we've already booked them again for the fall!

Andrea was simply wonderful!  She took great care of our home and of our dog.   
Andrea texted us photos and videos of the dog throughout her stay.  They went on many adventures and he seemed very happy.  
She also took care of every detail our puppy needed-- including buying him a new leash and replenishing the dog food.  
I would highly recommend Andrea!

We were lucky enough to have Aminia and Dan accept a second sit with us and we've already convinced them to come a third time as well!  They offer really loving pet care, reliability, great communication, and they keep a clean and tidy home.  We really feel at ease while traveling, knowing that our dog is in their capable and loving hands.  We've spent a good amount of time with them now and Amina and Dan make great dinner guests and are good conversationalists as well.  We can't believe we are lucky enough to get the same sitter 3x in a row and are counting our lucky stars.  If they apply for your sit, don't hesitate and be sure to accept their application.

Lynda has sat with our cat Casey several times, and she is the best.  She keeps me up to date on how Casey is; leaves the house spotless, washed sheets and towels, and is wonderfully dependable.  I cannot recommend her strongly enough.
