I hesitated to write this review because I don't want to cause anyone difficulty but, while my dog and house were taken care of overall, I feel like Ebony was lacking in following the care instructions. She was house-sitting for the weekend for my shih tzu who has some separation anxiety which was communicated in advance. Ebony had communicated that she would arrive at the house around 3:30 on Friday. She did not get to the house until 6:00. No big deal, I hadn't left until 1:30 and, per the care instructions, my pup can be left 4-8 hours. On Saturday after spending the night, she walked my dog in the morning and then left around 7:30 am. I was checking the doorbell cam and when Ebony had not come back to the house by almost 5, I texted to check in. She responded over an hour later that she had lots of other clients that day and she did not expect to be gone so long but that she was on the way. She did not return to the house to take care of my pup until 6:36 pm, 11 hours from when she left that morning and well past the care instructions time of 4-8 hours. I did express this concern with Ebony. My dog was fine and Ebony took good care of her while she was there, I was just frustrated with how long she left her and the lack of communication. I understand that things come up but a busy schedule is not an emergency, it's just not great planning when you have accepted a commitment. Sunday went fine and she walked my dog in the morning before she left and came back around 1 to walk her again, staying within the care instructions. She also took out the garbage, stripped the bed, washed the sheets, and even folded some clothes I had in the dryer before she left which was very nice. So overall just a mixed experience.

Ebony is a wonderful sitter for our pups. She sparkles with enthusiasm and care for their well being. Don’t hesitate to contact her.
