Stefanie C. says:
Sandy was wonderful with my two cats. I was out of the country for over a week, and was very comforted by Sandy's emails letting me know that she was brushing and playing with my cats and that they seemed happy. When we got home, she had even vacuumed up the carpet where I know my long-haired cat had surely shed like he always does. It was so nice to come home to a home looking so great and my mail was even... More

Sandra F. responds:
Thank you, Stefanie for this wonderful review. They sure did enjoy the brushing and attention and they did great while you were away. I am glad you noticed a few of the extra touches provided along with their care. I love sending pics and video texts and in your case emails when I can to let my clients know how their treasured babies are doing. I am so happy they were content when you got home. I loved taking... More

When I moved to the area, I was looking for someone that was professional but would also treat my dog very well. I am needing someone that would be willing to work with my crazy work schedule. Sandra and her husband, Larry, have been wonderful to work with and my dog loved them immediately.

Sandra F. responds:
Hi Christie,

We are so happy you found us!!! We think Rafter is adorable. Larry enjoys walking him and the overnight with him recently went fabulous. We are more than happy to work with you and your crazy schedule. We have several clients that need us to be flexible because their schedule changes being a nurse, paramedic and flight attendant. We thank you very much for this opportunity to take care of your...

We were going on vacation and the person who was going to watch our dog canceled two days before we left. Without being able to find anyone else I turned to Care.com and found Sandy. Even at the last minute she and her husband were happy to take our dog for the week. Our dog had a vacation of her own while we were gone and would love going back to play with all the friends she made. I highly recommend Sandy! More

Hi Nick, Thank you for your kind words. Cocoa did have a wonderful time here with our dog Jasmine and a couple of other visitors during her stay. She was a delight and we would welcome her back anytime you need to get away. Thanks for trusting us with your little one on such a short notice. Sandy and Larry F.
Donna K. says:
My husband and I do not have children just our dogs. They are spoiled but we like it that way. I am starting clinicals and in school and my husbands hours vary. We found Sandy and Larry on care.com. They came and met us and the dogs and it just felt right. My husband was apprehensive to have someone walk the dogs or be in the house. It has been working great. Our younger dog was purposely making messes... More

Hi Donna and Tim,

Thank you....

Larry and I so enjoy our job and the joy it brings to be able to help out with treasured furry kid care! Pets get restless and some experience separation/anxiety when parents are gone during the day. We love that we can help out during that time.
We are happy that our walking and feeding them is alleviating the problems you've been experiencing.

We also thank you for...

Sandy and Larry will care for your pet as you would. They focus on you and your pets needs and deliver. I felt so at ease leaving my puppy with him and he had a blast. They are great communicators, completely flexible and dedicated to providing wonderful care. Their love of animals makes them ideal caregivers.

Sandra F. responds:
Hi Lyn,
Thank you for your kind words...... we do LOVE our job! It is such a pleasure to love and take care of Mr. Darcy he is such a sweet little puppy. He really gave my two older doggies a run. I'd love to bottle up all that energy and keep some for myself.

We are so happy to include your baby among our loved ones and to be able to watch him grow.

Thanks again for giving us the opportunity to be his...

What a WONDERFUL experience we had with Sandy & Larry! They wrote everything down, we exchanged numbers, info, etc. They were at our home as promised and, when I called and asked if they could walk Jeter one more time, as we would be later than first thought, there was no problem; they were there! They left us a card from our "kids" with pictures and a DVD from their visits. It was a terrific experience and... More

Sandra F. responds:
Thank You, Sandi, for the opportunity to watch your furry kids......
We do love what we do and are glad that it shows. Your kids were sooooo wonderful to care for and Larry loved spending the nights at your place and getting goodnight kisses (licks) from Jeter. Even Tori warmed up to him!!!
We are very happy to be adding your "kids" to our family and we look forward to watching them in the near future.
Thanks...

Sandy watched my male German shepherd for 11 nights while I was out of town for my sister's wedding. I received daily email updates on how he was doing and came home to several pictures she had taken of their time together. I was also welcomed home with a card from my dog that Sandy had made. These are just a few examples of how Sandy's passion and love for pet (and home...I found it very clean when I got... More

Sandy took very, very excellent care of my 2 cats and 2 dogs! They loved her! Cats are on meds and she did great with that chore. She is very conscientious and keeps in touch with you via phone or email as you wish. She even had to take one cat to the vet because he didn't seem to be doing well!! Wonderful pet sitter! Recommend very highly!!
