Giovanni has watched my senior dog for years and he easily adapted to our newest addition another rescue. Going on trips out of state with him watching my girls gives me comfort knowing they are in good hands.

Giovanni has house sat for us 3 times now, which includes taking care of a big dog and two cats, and he's the best! Stays in communication, plenty of picks, the house is always pristine when we return, and the animals are always happy to see him. Thank you!

This is the 2nd time Giovanni house-sat for us. He is the best! Plenty of updates, took great care of our cats and dog, and he took diligent care of our home. Looking forward to hiring you again, Giovanni!

Giovanni did a phenomenal job house-sitting for us while we were on vacation! This included taking care of our dog and cat as well as watering plants. He was very respectful of our property, and when we returned, everything was as we left it. He followed our instructions exactly and was communicative regarding any questions or issues that came up. He clearly has good judgment in how he works. We also sent a question asking if we left a specific item at home, and he quickly found it and answered our question. He also provided frequent photos of the animals. We were delighted to see the animals happy and healthy when we returned, and they seemed to be very fond of Giovanni. We'd recommend Giovanni for any house-sitting and/or animal care jobs, and we expect to request his services again and again. Thank you, Giovanni!!
