House Sitting in Shelby

Caitlin did a great job taking care of my dog while I was away for a weekend. He can have some anxiousness meeting new people and she was willing to work with me ahead of my trip to drop-in on him weeks before so he was comfortable. I even added another dog in for the final stay and everyone behaved and was happy upon my return. Will definitely use in the future!

Brenda was clearly comfortable and confident with dogs her experience and overall calm demeanor left us feeling like we could enjoy our selves without worry. She kept Us posted and communicated throughout the day she is highly recommended and we will definitely ask her to stay with our fur babies again in the near future

Monica was the best! Even though I just moved into my place and still have boxes everywhere she didn't mind at all. She took good care of my kitties scoop the litter box and everything looked just like I left it when I came home. She even went above and beyond and washed the sheets she slept in and left me clean sheets so I could easily put them on and go to bed after a long day of traveling. I highly recommend her and would use her again and probably will!

Due to my "go to" sitter moving town, I needed to find a new home for my babies while I'm out of town. My son and I travel a lot so typical boarding/kennel is not my favorite place for the doggies. Arya was very responsive when setting up the stay. My dogs tend to forget their training when meeting someone new, and I appreciated that Arya immediately responded to my goldendoodle the way I want him to when he jumps - he turned his back. Within 2 minutes Ayra had Marlin responding as he should (too often people tell me, "oh, it's okay" and allow Marlin to misbehave. I know this is also on me...but to have help, helps!). The dogs were walked regularly and I was given many, many videos. I had some questions about the dogs after pick up, and Arya responded immediately. He also texted to check in to see how they were doing, which was great. I'd absolutely use Arya again for shorter trips; I'm not sure about longer ones because the dogs appear to spend much time in the crate. It's not a negative per se - and I trusted Arya completely with them - it's just that that stay is very different from their lifestyle they've experienced during boarding, which is a large yard in which to run free, and generally only crating at night for sleep and when my previous sitter would leave the house.
