This was the first disappointing experience that I've had with a pet sitter from this site. First, they didn't sleep in the room with my dogs which I had included in my instructions which I sent them weeks before they were to pet sit. Javier said that this was because he has a sinus problem that's exacerbated by dust or dog hair. Why wouldn't they say that this would be a problem before accepting the pet sit? They also said that sometimes the dogs woke them up. Occasionally, dogs are going to hear something outside and bark or use the dog door to go outside. This is normal for anyone who has ever had dogs. It's not like they do this all the time so I thought this was a sign that these people really are not pet lovers. It's possible that they were super sensitive because Natalia is pregnant. But again, if this was an issue, they should have let me know in advance so that I could select other pet sitters. I know that my dogs were stressed as they chewed up the edge of a sofa cover and blanket. They have never done this before. I asked Javier if the dogs scratched at the door to let them into their bedroom at night and he said that they never did this. That is really strange as my dogs always want to be in the room with their human companions. The other big problem was that one of my dogs needs eye drops twice a day. I showed them how to do it. I have never had any other pet sitter have difficulty with this as my dog is used to it and is very good about it. About 8 days into my trip, Javier tells me that about 1 1/2 days after I left, my dog started avoiding the procedure and that she almost bit him. He said that he didn't want to notify me earlier and interrupt my trekking. Well I would much rather know right away than have my dog's eyes get bad. Any pet owner feels this way so I thought that was a bad choice to delay notifying me. I explained that he should get her to trust him and gave him some suggestions like sit on the couch with her and give them all treats. Anyone who's experienced with dogs knows this. He said that he personally would prepare her food. I guess that means that Natalia was feeding the dogs which would have made them very easily trust her. It's like Javier doesn't understand dogs. There were some other irritating things like them wanting to change the schedule and arrive AFTER I leave for the airport. Of course, my dogs are going to bark at them and not be comfortable with them letting themselves into the house unless they arrive while I'm there. Javier also accidentally took my phone charger. It cost me about $10 to replace it which is not a big deal but it was just another annoying thing to deal with when you return from a trip. Overall, it seems that they believe feeding your animals and maybe taking them for a walk now and then is enough to be considered a good pet sitter. On the upside, Javier did try to cook them some rice and pumpkin to add to the dry food on the last day before I returned because the home made food ran out that day. But this was a small plus offset by a lot of minuses.

It’s always difficult when you have your first house sit, as you are not sure what to expect either way. The house was left beautifully clean and tidy and the cats also were very happy.
Recommendations for future house sittings would be to ensure you kept the homeowner updated on a more regular basis. To be pro-active and supply both negative and positive issues also to read the instruction booklet thoroughly. It tells you all you need to know and if in doubt ask. 
Good luck with your next sit and thanks.

Silvia & Lucas were fantastic pet sitters. They were super communicative and gave us updates throughout the weekend. Our dog Mia also seemed to really love them :) Highly recommend!

Chris was a great sitter for my cat. He petted her frequently and she really warmed up to him. He often sent pictures of her being cute. She was very relaxed and affectionate when I returned, which is not usually the case when I return from being away. He left my home in good condition and he watered my indoor and outdoor plants. I would highly recommend him.
