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.

Emily
We spent nearly two weeks at Emily's and Henry’s house, which is very spacious, well equipped and located in a beautiful neighborhood. They are both such easy and friendly communicators and we felt absolutely welcome in their home. 
Lucy is a lovely ball of energy. She stole our hearts with her sweet invitations to play fetch and her passion for balls. She gets along well with all dogs and people. We had a lot of fun cuddling with her and going to different beaches with her all around the bay area. We truly enjoyed our stay and are very thankful for this opportunity. If you have the chance, we highly recommend staying with Lucy and getting to know Emily, Henry and their beautiful little family.
