It was a pleasure to have Yuki to look after Mitsi and Ziggi (cats!), particularly as Ziggi is still under one year and newish to the house (they do not always get on… ). Yuki was good at following instructions and her care was an extension of mine which is exactly what I wanted. She is organised, quiet (she works online during the day and evening) and very tidy. I highly recommend her as a pet sitter to the community!
Miriam and Jeremy were the best! So easy to communicate with, very conscientious and thoughtful in every way. Our dog, Keiko is mostly aloof - they understood that and let him warm up to them on his terms. Miriam was great about sending a picture or text daily just to check in. We came home to a happy dog and a house just the way we left it. Having them care for Keiko gave us the peace of mind to truly enjoy our vacation! I would highly recommend them for a sit! I hope we are fortunate to have them stay again!
