Lys & her daughters were absolutely amazing while watching Vinny and our home! I didn’t worry once while I was away as she kept me fully informed and sent pictures throughout their stay. She was extremely kind, communicative, and honest which I value so much in someone who is staying with our pup! She and her daughters gave Vinny TONS of attention and exercise and he had an absolute blast with them! I was so impressed with Lys and her care for our dog… on the last day of our sit, Vinny ate a tissue and Lys went above and beyond by calling our vet to inquire about what to do. When our vet was closed on New Years day, she then proceeded to call several emergency vets in the area to get their perspective and assured me that all was ok, and that she would keep an eye on him. Vinny was absolutely fine, but I truly appreciated her keeping me in the loop and her proactiveness in reaching out to give him the best care. Our flight home ended up being delayed and was a late flight, but Lys was so kind to stay with Vinny and didn’t leave until she knew we had landed. When we got home, our house was immaculate, all the mail and packages had been brought inside, and she and her daughters left us the kindest thank you note! Overall Lys was incredible and I would recommend her over and over again to watch your pets and home! I hope she can come back and stay with Vinny again in the future!
Kelsey and Reid were a treasure to have as house sitters! Our pets really enjoyed their company and we could tell instantly they were going to be great. Their communication regarding house and pet preferences were quick and thorough. They were especially thoughtful in taking care of our cat, who is battling an eye issue - they even offered to provide a warm compress to make him comfortable :) . We look forward to the possibility of having Kelsey and Reid house sit for us again!
