Sheila embodies the essence of a "zeewoi" as a caring and compassionate human who bonded immediately with our pups Sam and Dee, and in every aspect of her performance in communication, organization, dependability, flexibility, adaptability, problem-solving and overall character. This was the first house sit experience for both Sheila and for us. As we talked with Sheila to plan the house-sit and create the Welcome Guide, she was extremely helpful in asking throughtful questions and making suggestions to be sure that we had everything organized and in good order for the sit. During the sit, we communicated regularly and Sheila was prompt and responsive in her communication. She was also resourceful and adaptable in managing unexpected happenings, most notably Sam being sprayed by a skunk. When we arrived home, Sam and Dee were happy to see us, but it was clear as the day and evening progressed, that they were also looking for Mama Sheila to come back. It is evident that she cared deeply for Sam and Dee and they love her as well. As we plan our next adventures, Sheila will absolutely be our first-choice, if her schedule permits. And, in addition to being a very tursted housesitter, we also consider Sheila to be a friend that we will stay in touch with, for years to come.
Dayna and Mike are lovely to deal with. They are conscientious and experienced and so they asked all the right questions about Gracie's needs and routines. While I was away, they were responsive and easy to reach. When they had questions about what she needed, they got hold of me right away. They are lovely people. I recommend them highly.
