Margot spent two weeks with our dog Akiva at our home while we were away on vacation. Akiva is a 5 year old GSD who greatly values personal attention from his people, including his play time, training regimen and walking routine. Margot worked with us prior to our departure to learn Akiva's habits and ways to keep him happy and healthy in our absence. She's responsible and reliable, and it was clear from the regular updates and pictures that she sent us that she developed a genuine rapport with Akiva. She took great care of our home and plants as well. We already have our next house sitting with Margot on the books, and will be counting on her in the future. Thank you Margot!

As always, Margot is the perfect house and cat sitter. She gives me such peace of mind when I travel, knowing that my home and pet are cared for by her. She is so affectionate with my cat, gives me detailed daily updates with tons of photos, and leaves my home cleaner than she found it. She goes out of her way to ensure that when I get home at the end of a long trip, I don't have to do any work at all. Already booking her for my next trip!

Margot took fantastic care of my two senior pups and home. She provided daily updates and pictures, keeping my mind at ease while away. She was communicative, kind, and asked good questions.
