Castle and Critter Sitters

Liora dog sat our two little guys over Christmas weekend and she did a wonderful job with them! She came over twice to meet them and made sure that the price we were given was fair and that we were comfortable with the situation. Our dogs can be difficult to manage and she did a great job with them. I also loved the daily updates that she gave about how they were doing!

About 2 or 3 months ago I needed a dog sitter and a friend recommended Liora Hess, founder of Castle and Critter Sitters. We agreed to meet, and she described the services provided by her company. Liora brought with her documentation that verified she has a business license and is insured, as well as being a member of the Pet Sitters Association. After we talked awhile I decided to try her service, and then she offered a «Policies and Pet Sitting Checklist» as well as a comprehensive form to complete about my pet, a Jack Russell terrier. I could not believe how organized and professional she was! As she began caring for my dog, I learned that she was warm and affectionate with him, and kept all the commitments for his care that were made in our agreement. I’ve continued to use Liora’s services intermittently over the months that I’ve known her, and all I can say is that she is just amazing. I feel I’d be hard-​pressed to find anyone of her quality elsewhere. Besides her commitment to affectionate care of my dog, I find her to be honest, open and very trustworthy.
When I began my search for a dog sitter I never imagined there was someone of Liora’s quality available. What a find she has been! I can recommend her without qualification to anyone needing pet care services, and although I have not yet used her house-​sitting services I am sure they would be of the same professional and conscientious caliber as the services she has provided for me thus far.
Give Liora a try for your pet and/​or house-​sitting services – you’ll be as amazed (and grateful) as I am!

Castle and Critter Sitters was GREAT! Prior to leaving on a week long trip, Liora came a couple times to meet our pets and review our pet/​house instructions. While away, Liora came each day to feed my two dogs and take them for a walk. One has special ‘picky’ eating habits and she was able to get her to finish her food each day. That is a triumph! My dogs looked great upon my return and welcomed Liora with wagging tails when she came to return my house key. That is an excellent doggie sign of a good pet sitter. Liora had asked if she could gather our mail and morning newspaper, but, we already had that covered. She also watered some plants. Liora is very professional, friendly and it’s obvious she loves animals. I will be calling upon Liora again when the need arises.
