Mark and Kimberly were the perfect sitters. They were everything that anyone could hope for when leaving ones home and pets in strangers care. Communication leading up to the event was good. After spending an evening with them I knew that they would cope with any issue in a calm appropriate way. They were very self sufficient and needed no input from us. At the last minute I sent a request to add my sons dog to their sit and this was taken on board with the calm and competent response that we now know to be normal. Bella our cat was well cared for and given masses of affection. The house was clean and tidy. Not only were they calm, competent, considerate and caring pet sitters but also very good company. We really enjoyed the evening we spent together before leaving. We would consider ourselves very fortunate if Mark and Kimberley wanted to sit again. I wish you luck in your travels and know that whoever you sit for in the future is very fortunate.
Kelly and Heath were perfect house and petsitters for us and our two dogs. We weren't able to meet in person due to our departure and arrival times, but Kelly scheduled a zoom video meeting for us and we were able to give them a tour prior to their arrival. Kelly and Heath asked great questions to make sure they were as informed as possible prior to their arrival. We really appreciate that, knowing that our camping trip would take us away from consistent cell service. Our home was well taken care of, at least as clean as we left it, if not more so. They even took the time to wash linens and bedding and clean up after one doggy accident by washing and drying the rug before they left. I wouldn't hesitate to invite them back to our home and to spend time with Bella and Kiki.
