Craig and Sylvie Telles have cared for my dog, Laney, numerous times throughout the past several years, for lengths of time varying from one day to over a week. Laney was always happy to spend time with them, and I know that she was treated with love and care in their home. In addition, Sylvie often cared for my cat when I was out of town, spending time in my home to make sure her needs were taken care of, including her need for human companionship. I’ve come to trust them completely when it comes to my animal companions, and highly recommend their services.

Why we want to house sit

With our two sons out of the house, Sylvie and I have the opportunity to explore the world and meet new people. House sitting is a great option for us to test some new waters.
