The Sitters are the only people we trust our dogs with! When they first started coming, we only had two dogs. They would let them out, play with them, and feed them. Then we got a puppy who is kennel training. The sitters are amazing with her. They let her out and encourage her to run around and get her energy out. They are great to work with and also respond in a timely fashion.

Jennifer and Savannah are simply the best. They have been making mid-day visits to give our dog, Ella, a walk and a potty break - and most importantly, lots of lovin' - for about 2 1/2 years now. I can't imagine what we'd do without them. When we mention their names to Ella, she runs to the window. With busy work schedules, I don't know how we would have been able to get a dog without a sitter. We've never once had to worry about our baby girl during the day. They are kind, caring and super flexible. If you are looking for a pet sitter, don't look any further.

We have been using the Sitters for a while now and we love them! And not only us, but also our two cats. We had a rather hard time finding a good pet sitter in the area and are very happy to have found the Sitters.
They have taken care of our cats for weekends or even longer periods of time and it always goes very well. I love that they give us updates on how everything is going, gives you peace of mind while away.
The last time our male cat needed to be given medicine while we had to go away and even that went all well.
They will also bring in your mail if you're gone for longer. Plus they even brought in our empty trash can from the street one time, without us asking them to.
Bottom line, we love them, our cats do and we would definitely recommend them to everyone that needs a pet sitter!

Jennifer and her daughter make a great caring and trustworthy team. My cats received professional care and individual TLC while we were away. One of my cats is diabetic, requiring insulin injections twice a day. He can also become very "owly'" with strangers, which makes it difficult for us to travel and leave him in the care of others without worrying. Happily, all went well, and we plan to use The Sitters' services in the future.

Fed dogs and a cat. We would not think of leaving town without having them come sit with our animals. They're great!

Went great. We scheduled an appt to meet and found them very professional. They kept us informed of their visits throughout the week we were gone.

They made all visits in a timely manner and the dogs were in fine form on our return. They did a previsit to scope out what we needed and were charming and pleasant to work with. They managed the security system with no problems and were flexible so that when we decided to stay an extra day, it only needed a call. They were solicitous that we should let them know we were returned so that they knew the dogs were being looked after. Rates are reasonable and they offer a bonus card that offers a free 11th visit after every 10. They have an informative web site that allowed us to do a prescreen of services. It could not have gone better.

It went very, very well. They are conscientious and I am really pleased with them. They are very reasonable. They do play with them for a little while when I am gone. They don't need anyone to walk them because they have a free run away yard. Their responsiveness and punctuality was very good.

Jennifer responded to my initial inquiry promptly. She provided references, which I checked out and found to be very complimentary. It gave me a comfort factor to ease my fears about leaving our beloved pets for a whole week. All arrangements seemed thorough and smoothly executed. Jennifer was sensitive to my worries and took pains to communicate that the animals were fine. We arrived home to no unpleasant surprises, which is all I can ask for.

We highly recommend The Sitters!!

We first met Jennifer from The Sitters in October 2009 when we were looking for someone to check in on our Pomeranian on days when I was traveling for work and my boyfriend would not be back at the house until late at night . Jennifer and her daughter came by for an introductory meeting and we knew immediately that they were the pet sitters for us! ( Dog people can easily recognize other dog people.) I called my sister when The Sitters left to tell her I had found the perfect pet sitters.

My sister and her husband have 2 dogs and 1 cat. They were looking for someone to check on them when they were out of town for the holidays or on vacation. My sister thinks her cat is a and quot;princessand quot; so she is very picky. The Sitters went to meet with her family a few weeks after we met them. The Sitters passed the and quot;princessand quot; test and have been pet sitting for my sister's family since November 2009.

We now have 2 dogs and they both love The Sitters!
