Richard and Gudrun went above and beyond when watching our house and pups. They took the pups on daily walks and accommodated their limitations (Tuggy is older and can only walk short distances before getting tired while Finn has unending energy). They were very patient with Finn as well (he is very smart and very destructive as a result). Gudrun and Richard left the house even cleaner than we had given it to them and sent regular updates and pictures while we were gone. I believe they took better care of our house and pups than a paid sitting service would have. If there's any way our schedules work out for them to sit for us again in the future they would be our first choice hands down. As regular users of this site we absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for sitters!
Antonella and Clay were wonderful! I received a photo or video every morning of Trixie smiling and on adventures having fun on a walk, at the park, on the ferry, or tail wagging and chasing a ball in her yard. Antonella was very communicative about the plans and responsive when I touched based leading up to the sit. During the sit, they were self sufficient and sent updates daily as I had requested. When I returned, the house was clean, the car full of gas and Trixie was as bouncy, happy and healthy as ever.
