Pet Sitters in Piney Bluff

Patricia was a fantastic petsitter! You couldn't ask for better! She took care of my two elderly dogs and adored them. She left my home spotless. She kept in regular contact with me both before and during my trip and made sure that my flight got home before she left. You would be so lucky for her to petsit for you!

Another great sit! No pets this is time, just our house. They took care of everything while we were away on an extended trip. The yard, exterior living spaces and interior spaces were so clean, it was like walking into a new house. They texted us re: issues that arise that they worked around, but wanted us to be aware. We trust them to take care of our home as we would and they deliver!

My pets were well cared for. Sara did a super job. I am very impressed with this service. With people like Sara, you have no worries.

We were lucky to be able to meet her before the sit and was great to see her interact with our pup Miso, she didn’t blink an eye at Miso’s high energy. Sue’s communication was great both before and throughout the sit, she sent photo updates and a quick question, and we felt reassured while away. The house was the same as we left it. We’d easily recommend Sue, she’s very sweet and took great care of our pup!

Rhyss & Jean ware were amazing! Minnie was so well taken care of. Rhyss & Jean both took Minnie for 3 walks a day, she usually only gets 2 so this was a real treat for her. I was sent either a video or photo every time they walked Minnie. This I really appreciated. My home was cleaner when I got back than when I left. I so appreciated that after a long day of traveling and not getting in til after midnight. I also really appreciated that they walked Minnie late evening knowing that I would be home late. They are both amazing people that go well above to ensure that you and your pet are well taken care of.

Andrew was terrific! Both an effective communicator and totally reliable, Otis loved him and he was especially attentive to our habits and the things that Otis is accustomed to. He also did a great job watering our plants and keeping the house neat and he left the house as clean as he found it (perhaps cleaner!). Highly recommend.

Pauline & Nick were great pet/house sitters. They kept us updated every day, sent pictures of our pets, and they were very conscientious about the care they provided. We came back to a spotless home, happy pets, and the calm and comfort so appreciated after our trip away and exhaustion from flights, etc getting home. We were so grateful knowing they were taking such excellent care of our home and pets. We’d definitely have them back again.

Russell and Lisa were FABULOUS! They were flexible with last minute changes and a late flight schedule. Kebo and Charlie were happy and healthy when we returned; Charlie who typically has anxiety issues and "bites" at his fur, had NO HOT BALD SPOTS! How wonderful to meet Russell and Lisa, particularly kind and attentive to detail. Kebo and Charlie thought so too, WOOF!

Charlie was great! He took care of our baby for a week and left the place nice & tidy. He sent us updates and loved on Teddy! We would definitely recommend him to anyone who needs their fur baby taken care of.

What is the absolutely WORST thing that can happen? Your pets abandoned, with zero notice and the inability to get the "sitter" to respond to inquiries about your pets' status while you're in Hawaii panicking about your pets in California. Then, when you're able to get a friend to check on the status of your home and pets (because Claudia would not respond to me), you find that your house has been left wide open and unlocked. There was also a general lack of attention to the pets. She sent me a photo of my cat and asked me "who is this one". The cat in the photo was the cat she was supposed to be caring for. I found out she locked my cat out and let a stray in, instead. When I inquired further, I didn't hear anything for more than 24 hours despite reach out out a couple of times. Okay - but what about her side of the story? Claudia had a legitimate gripe, the cats were keeping her up at night because of an unusual situation: We've recently had to keep the cats inside at night because we had a problem with a skunk. The cats wanted to go in/out at will as they were accustomed to. I think the big, festering problem is that she didn't alert me to any of this until after 3 nights. My IMMEDIATE response to Claudia upon learning this was: "Oh, no. What a nightmare!! I am so sorry!! Let me try to think of a solution. Is the problem with both cats, or just Bing Bing" and "Wow - that is not okay!! What can I do? If I have someone take your place, is that better for you?" I also offered to have my daughter pick up the offending cat so that Claudia could finish her stay, if that's what she preferred. Note: the words in quotations are exact quotes of my messages. I was willing to stop everything to deal with Claudia's concerns immediately and do just about anything that would have made her happy. I even told her she could leave the cats for a few days (she lives less than 2 hours away) if she needed a break. Claudia also found the internet not fast enough. This is something we explicitly discussed before the sit - I had recently noticed that the internet had been less consistent than a few months ago. Claudia assured me that she understood and has an "amplifier" to plug into the wall that would be enough. When it wasn't, and she let me know, within MINUTES of learning this, I was on the phone to Verizon - I thought I had the fastest service, but apparently they changed things (which explains why I noticed a slowdown) and there was now faster service, so I increased it immediately. [For any potential future pet sitters, there is a simple "speed test" I can do that will measure the exact upload/download speed. She thought there was an issue with the washer/dryer, but that turned out to be user error. The power went out one time for 40 minutes. This is, unfortunately, not uncommon in California during fire season. Thankfully it's usually brief. I have found my laptop battery to be sufficient to manage the brief gap. Cell towers have generator backup, so wifi/cellular coverage is uninterrupted. I am heartbroken that this sit ended this way. Heartbroken because it sucked for everyone involved but could have so easily been avoided by simple communication from Claudia. I have had friends and neighbors petsit with no problems. I have Airbnb'd my house with a 4.97* cumulative rating. If only Claudia had simply reached out, I would have accommodated her in just about any way possible. Instead, she stayed silent, then would not even acknowledge the remedies I suggested and abandoned my pets, instead.
