This was a wonderful sit in a most beautiful area in the New Jersey countryside. We are so grateful for the opportunity to have cared for Gracie, Spidey, Tac, and Pluto. They have very unique dog personalities with such loving energy. They were all fun to take care of and super easy to sit. When they all four get together it's like they come alive in a different way to create a really enjoyable group of dogs playing a whole show. It's hard to explain fully but they made the experience so fun. The home is of course very beautiful, clean, safe, with plenty of room to spread out and get work done. All the amenities you could need and more. Easy to cook, relax, and rest. Connie and Anthony were so gracious and welcoming, giving a great tour of the home and where everything is, answering questions quickly while away, and kind while doing so. We wish we could have visited under better circumstances to care for their home and pets. If we are in the area again we would be happy to sit for them anytime. We wish the best for this kind family and their wonderful home and pets! Thank you for allowing us to help during your time of need!

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at Connie's home. We didn't get to meet her as she had already left for her trip but we did get to meet with Anthony and he was very kind and welcoming. He was very funny and interesting and we enjoyed talking with him very much. The home is absolutely beautiful with everything you would need for your stay and is located in one of the best areas of NJ--lots of great hiking in the area and beautiful scenery. While it is in a more rural area, you are not far from supermarkets and other needs. A car is necessary as Uber and similar services would probably not be regularly available in an area like this.The dogs were very easy to take care of and very cute! Spidey was a cuddle bug, Tac slept much of the day and kept to himself; Gracie and Pluto were fun and enjoyed spending time outside playing together. Would definitely come back!

We had a wonderful time staying at Connie and Anthony’s spacious and lovely home! We met Connie and Anthony the night before the sit. They are gracious hosts - serving us a lovely steak dinner the night before they left. We had ample opportunity to go through our check list with them and learn about the dogs’ routines. Connie and Anthony were readily available but we never had a problem where we had to call them. It was December, so the weather was fairly cool – no chance to use the pool or hot tub. But it was sunny so we were able to take the dogs out and play with them several times a day in the large, fenced in yard. Pluto is a real comic, by far the largest and strongest of the four, but he would routinely allow Gracie to beat him to the ball or take it away from him. Spidey and Tac would generally just watch the other two playing. It was very easy caring for the four of them. The home is lovely. We hung out with the dogs in the kitchen/family room, where we fired up the wood pellet stove every evening. Generally, Pluto, Gracie and Spidey would stretch out on the sofa with us while we watched TV. Our room was large with a very comfortable bed. Their home is in a rural part of NJ. We saw a red fox across the road from the home. There are nice parks nearby, with walks a little further afield. This is a very nice sit which should leave you very relaxed! We highly recommend it.
