Frederico lied about arriving to our home the morning of a house sitting when in fact he was no where near close to being here (we have a puppy cam in front of her crate and front door) while our 12 week old puppy was screaming in her crate. We left our home (after waiting for him for 30 minutes) because he told us he was arriving right at the time we left. After calling again he said he'd be there in 30, lied about arriving saying "he's arriving now" then said he'd be another 20 minutes away after calling him. When we didn't see him, we turned the car around and rushed home. We were already an hour and a half away and called a friend to help. He had an emergency he didn't communicate with us and told us he'd be there soon over and over again. We have lost HUNDREDS of dollars over a trip we couldn't take and peace of mind. He has no idea the length of what these actions have done after we had arranged the apartment for him, met with him and trusted him. I would not recommend him to watch your pets.

Federico was very responsive and my pets liked him. I think they were well taken care of, and my house was tidy when I got home. I would recommend confirming times with Federico when you book housesitting - he works very late some nights, which may not work for everyone.
