JJ is reliable and does a wonderful job checking in and providing updates. We have an anxious hound dog, and JJ seems unfazed by our high-needs pup. It’s been so nice to have someone who is willing and able to do repeat stays, especially since our dog takes a minute to warm up to others.

I have to start off by saying that I was torn on leaving a negative review. It isn’t who I am, but if this post would have been available for review when we were looking for a pet sitting, it would have had relevance. The hard facts: JJ had been to our home on 5 prior occasions and was well aware of our invisible fence and the need to carry the dogs over the fence line for walks. She had gone on 3 walks as I would carry our younger dog over the fence line to get to the sidewalk across the street. I had also let her know that we had outdoor cameras. While we were on vacation, we started receiving alerts whenever there was outside movement. All of that to say that we watched her drag our dog across the fence line. Cooper hesitated, but eventually went. With the cameras, we also saw that she only took the dogs for walks 3 of the 8 days were away, and 1 walk was only 7 minutes. I had asked her to walk and feed the dogs the final day as we would not be home until 8pm. She did not walk them. When I brought up the lack of walks, she insisted they had quality back yard play time. Again, we have a camera in the back yard also, and she DID not have quality time. The 2 instances where we did see her in the back, she sat vaping on the glider and had no interaction with the dogs. The additional minor complaints was the mess she left our house in. Both kitchen and dining tables were left greasy and food crumbs, a collection of soda cans were left in the bedroom, several minor things were broken-I don’t care about the broken items-just wanted to include in the collection of issues.
