Dog Sitting in Braggtown

If you are lucky enough to get Chris and Geoff to request a house sit, say yes quickly! We went overseas for a whole month and left our dog... who is nothing short of my animal bestie. They walked her every day(twice!) and stayed near her for large chunks of the day... and they also did magic on the garden -- keeping our newly planted trees alive and our garden thriving. Within the first few days of their house sit, we had some exchanges on text that showed me how wonderful Chris and Geoff would be-- making themselves at home in our neighborhood and with Lucy. I was able to enjoy my holiday even more because our dog and home were deeply cared for. Lucy's behaviour when we returned was noticeably settled. She had not gained weight or becoming clingy like she has in past when I left her. I think she misses them. :-) Thank you, Chris and Geoff!

Julie and Scott were spectacular house/pet sitters! They were very thorough with asking questions and understanding Murphy’s routine. They sent lots of pictures. They left the house clean (even washed the towels and sheets they used!) Can’t say enough good things about them. We highly recommend them and will definitely ask them back!!!

Both Mariia and Anton were delightful, arrived in good time, listened carefully, paying attention to details and clarifying things I hadn't even thought about. They were thoughtful and kind before, during, and after their time here. Odin took to them immediately and seemed just fine with my leaving. They were unusually gracious about the AC going out pretty soon after I left, even when a serviceman couldn't come until the end of the Sit. They understand the dynamics of increasing air flow to cool down a house and made that happen. When I got home they'd planned on having me join them for the supper they made, which I did. We had a lovely chat during the meal and afterwards about many things. So good to get to know them better. The house was in great shape, all clean and in order. Odin was happy to see me, but still wanted to be with them too. A good sign. We had breakfast they'd made the next morning, then spent a while saying our good-byes, including Odin. I would love to have them stay at Dancing Oaks again. A Great First Zeewoi experience.

It was wonderful meeting Brandy. She took excellent care of Willow. She sent me pictures and managed Willow’s separation anxiety very well. My home was well cared for during this short visit.

Paige and David were great pet and house sitters! The place was beyond clean and dogs were beyond well cared for. The communication was perfect. The bonus was that Paige took amazing photos of the dogs. She should be a professional dog photographer! Would have them again. Thanks Paige and David!

I can’t say enough nice things about Tia and her husband. This is the second time we have hosted Tia in our home and she is beyond amazing. I trust her to make the best decisions and provide the best care for our pets and our home. She is intuitive, active, a great communicator, leaves our home better than we left it, and is friendly and engaging. We had a leopard gecko who just didn’t want to eat and Tia solved it, putting my 10 year old son at ease on our vacation. I would welcome Tia into my home anytime and feel so fortunate to have met her!

Juliet was absolutely great! Somehow I entered the dates for our sot wrong and she was so helpful with working it out so we could have coverage even though it was TOTALLY my mistake. We have a couple animals with medical conditions that need daily medication and monitoring and she took great care of them. She took our big dog on a couple hikes while we were gone and I honestly think he may have been a bit disappointed to see us! She’s a great communicator and kept us well updated. Thanks Juliet!!

Sandra was very experienced and took good care of our dog Stella. Unfortunately, we found that our communication styles did not really mesh. Weeks before the sit, if we did not reply to Sandra instantly she got rather frantic and seemed overly anxious about the details of the sit. We always want our house sitters to feel comfortable and know what they are walking into, but it was a bit difficult to manage the level of communication Sandra required in advance of her stay. During the stay, our emergency contact was also contacted for a simple question about a light switch, just hours after we had texted Sandra to check in and ask if she had any questions. Besides this, we are grateful for her help and our dog seemed to enjoy her time with Sandra.

Summer sent me regular updates and went above and beyond leaving my apartment clean when she left! She’s so friendly and really made an effort to bond with my kitty. I hope to have her back!

We were so happy that our sit fit into Nicole’s schedule. This was her third sit for our pets and our home and fur babies were well cared for. Our trip was worry free. We recommend her with no reservations!
