Darrell and Ted were wonderful pet and house sitters who went beyond our expectations. They arrived the day before our trip and we immediately felt at ease with them caring for our energetic young dog, Ginny. While we made a good connection with Darrell and Ted right away, so did Ginny! She adored them! While we were gone, we were sent daily updates and pictures. Our pup was walked several times a day, cuddled multiple times a day and had a bath before our return. When we came home, Ginny was in good spirits and good health. She obviously had become quite attached to Darrell and Ted! The house also was clean and welcoming. There were flowers on the table and a complete prepared dinner in the refrigerator to welcome us. I would love to have Darrell and Ted stay any time we are gone. We can not recommend them highly enough!
Alexis came to sit for our pet family for a week with her dog Sadie. It was the first time we have allowed someone not related to us to care for our fur babies. She and Sadie were exceptional caregivers for our 2 Aussies and one bunny. Sadie set an behavioral example for our semi-socialized dogs to follow. They became a pack together. They enjoyed walking, playing ball, and hanging outside on the deck and in the garden. Our bunny was treated with sensitvity and respect, exactly as he likes. Every day at 5pm, we received adorable photos of Bruno, Max, and Carmel. Communication was thourough. Upon arrival, everthing was perfectly in order. Thanks to Alexis, we had piece of mind and were able to enjoy our trip completely! We hope they will come again soon to pet sit for us in Healdsburg.
