Reliable and Attentive Dog Sitter! Dennis was entrusted with the care of our beloved furry companions from Thursday, April 25th to Monday, April 29th, and we were overall satisfied with his service. His dedication to our dogs was evident in his consistent presence at our house throughout the duration of his stay. One of the commendable aspects of Dennis' service was his commitment to maintaining open lines of communication. We greatly appreciated his daily updates and the delightful addition of pictures, which provided us with reassurance and allowed us to stay connected with our pets even while away. Despite our positive experience, there was a hiccup along the way. There was an incident involving the administration of the wrong medication to one of our dogs, which understandably caused concern. However, Dennis promptly took responsibility for the error and handled the situation with professionalism. He immediately contacted our vet to seek guidance on any necessary actions, demonstrating his proactive approach to problem-solving and ensuring the well-being of our pet. We returned home to a tidy house, with all bedding washed, reflecting Dennis' efforts to maintain a clean and comfortable environment for both our pets and ourselves. In conclusion, despite the minor setback, we are grateful for Dennis' dedication to our dogs and the peace of mind he provided during his stay. His attentiveness, daily communication, and commitment to resolving issues promptly were commendable. We would consider engaging Dennis' services again in the future and would recommend him to others seeking a reliable and caring dog sitter.

We've used Dennis twice to watch our two doodles and he has been great with them. He's kind and patient even though our dogs can be a handful. He's also very respectful of our house and always cleans up after the kids, even though we never asked him to. I've always been anxious about leaving my older dog alone but Dennis provided constant updates and that's very reassuring.
