She also said she was allergic to pet urine and did our house smell like dog pee. It doesn't but I shampooed the carpet before she arrived just to be sure. she arrived on a Wednesday, we left Thurs morning to see my husband's elderly mother.

I wonder if it was actually the person in the profile—-I mean maybe the person with excellent reviews asked a friend to fill in and take a client for her? Cause a pet sitter with THAT severe of an all pro pet urine doesn’t make any kind of sense

Prior to the trip, we meet with the pet sitter in our home and also hire them for one or two 30-minute drop in visits. We’ve been lucky with our sitters but I think establishing a relationship has been helpful for all.

Perhaps copy and paste this post as your review 🙃

I once came down with chemically induced bronchitis, around 2010, after shampooing the carpets and I have had severe sensitivities to most cleaning chemicals and scented products ever since. I have had to remove plug-ins -- but I only do visits and do not stay in clients' homes. I also always do a free meet and greet ahead of time to hopefully identify any issues ahead of time

I’m an independent petsitter and have been doing so for 20 years. I would NEVER EVER do this to a client/family. I say this in the kindness way possible, she seems to have some mental health issues. I would save your pets with my life if needed and then there’s someone who literally left your animals. I can’t even comprehend some human beings. I’m so angry for you. Leave a review!!! Also, even though I don’t know where you’re located, I would love to petsit for you if you ever need and 1/2
