We cannot thank Jenny and Richard enough for caring for Louey, Oso and Sojo again. Oso and Sojou are rescue dogs who dont accept people easily into their home but they adore Jenny and Richard! We went away without any worries for a carefree long weekend. A terrible storm whilst we were away lead to a leak in the roof but we arrived home to mopped floors, clean house and calm and happy dogs. We feel so lucky to have Jenny and Richard in our lives and thank Zeewoi for introducing us.
We are so pleased to have found Lev and Mia! They are great cat sitters that were responsible, communicative, and extremely tidy. All 3 of our cats liked them including our shy Julien who isn’t the most keen with strangers in his house. They were great at checking in everyday with the good & the bad. Bagheera was vomiting and had some litter box problems and they messaged immediately for guidance. We were able to get him on a laxative for constipation and he improved significantly the next day. Luckily there were no other issues but it is impressive that they knew what was a problem and worked to address it before it became a bigger problem. I know lesser sitters might have ignored Bagheera’s symptoms and hoped they went away instead of having what can be an uncomfortable conversation with an owner. They went above and beyond during “check out” as well. The house was cleaner than we left it, not that it was bad, but they went above and beyond. They washed their bedding and remade the guest bed before they took off which is not even something we ask for but certainly don’t mind! They are welcome back anytime they want to visit DC!
