Taylor was nice, but while I was gone all day in STL, she spent a total of 1 hour and 33 minutes with my dog. The start time was 5-7AM with the end time being 6-9PM. I was nervous leaving my dog so I messaged at 5:52AM letting her know that I left coffee for her, at 6:01AM to apologize about my messy apartment, and at 7:40AM once the designated arrival time had long passed asking on when she planned on arriving. She responded at 8:02AM apologizing and that she was on her way over. She arrived at 8:20AM. At 8:39AM, she promised to come back a few more times to check on her. She came back at 1:14PM and 5:09PM. When you include fees, I paid $44.40. She was $0.48 per minute of time. I thought that I was paying for dog sitting in the home, but instead, I paid for her to walk her 3 times and feed her. In my mind, I thought my dog was going to have more of a companion to play with a bit, so that is probably my bad. Had I realized this sooner, I had friends who offered to do this same thing for free. I was more worried for my dog's anxiety of being alone all day. It wasn't until I checked my smart lock that I realized how little time they spent together when I left at 5:38AM for STL and made it back at 8:27PM. The only pic I received was at the end of the day of her walking my dog. When I looked at the picture, she did not put my dog's harness on correctly. This does not give me confidence that she knows enough about dogs to be watching them. My dog likes to chase after birds and other dogs. It worries me that she could have escaped the harness when it's not fastened securely. Overall, she would make an excellent dog walker provided she knows how to properly harness and leash your dog, but maybe not the finest dog sitter. Zoey was okay when I got home, but just displeased with there service.

Taylor was readily available, asked good questions, and no issues upon returning from a 3 day trip! Definitely recommend!
