 The clients below have given their kind permission for me to include their testimonials here, and are happy to be contacted on request - I thank them most sincerely. Just a quick note to say we are back from our holiday and were met by a
very relaxed and happy cat on our return. I was very, very pleased with Ewa. She was so thoughtful and considerate
throughout to me and the cat! She sent me emails and even photos of Morris to
let me know what was going on and how he was, and understood well some quite
complicated arrangements with opening and closing the window and leaving food
outside when he was locked out. I could tell she had played with him a lot and
she seemed to know and understand him well. She also double-checked everything
she wasn't sure of, and left the kitchen really clean having washed the tins and
milk cartons she used for the cat ready for recycling. Top marks - she did a wonderful job and clearly genuinely cared about the
cat.
Lisa Wallace ~ Richmond, Surrey Having been a dog walker for most of my life, and a professional and qualified dog walker for the past year, I have had the privilege of working with Claire on numerous occasions. Her approach, handling and understanding of dogs is a quality which is rarely found in so-called dog lovers. Her priority is always for the welfare of the dog and ensuring that the time spent in her company is safe and full of fun. Paul Mahon ~ 'Baskervilles', Richmond, Surrey My 6 year old chocolate labrador Alfie is my baby, and until I met Claire I only trusted my family to look after him! However, when you meet Claire, it is clear that she loves animals, and they, in turn, love her, and I would not hesitate to recommend her. She also understands dogs, having studied Canine Pyschology, and this is important to me as I know that she will ensure that my dog is safe and under control at all times. I am really happy and relaxed to leave Alfie in Claire's capable hands...and Alfie is happy too! Gianna Saccomani ~ Teddington, Middlesex I’ve been using Houndjog since the very beginning. I was attracted by their well designed website and reasonable rates. However these are not good enough reasons to entrust a stranger with your best friend. When I met Claire I took my dog Sophie with me, she’s a good judge of character and I knew if she liked Claire then that was a start. Needless to say Sophie loved Claire and I was very impressed with her professionalism (Claire's that is, not Sophie's!). We’ve been using her services ever since and I know I can trust anyone who works for Claire as they are scrupulously checked. D. Long, Sophie and latest addition to the family Trevor ~ Kingston, Surrey I was introduced to Claire by a friend who had used her for a year. My dogs and I haven’t looked back and I feel confident in recommending them to others. Mr Brian Thomas ~ Kingston, Surrey The Woods ~ Richmond, Surrey I would
heartily recommend your services to anyone looking for a pet-sitter. Before we
started working with you we had a couple of bad experiences with cat-sitters who
failed to turn up, or couldn't follow the (admittedly somewhat complex)
instructions for preparing the cats food. But since we started working with
you I feel that I can relax, our little guys are in capable hands. It's clear
that the well-being of your furry clients is your top priority. And I like the
extra touches, like opening an email on vacation to see a pic of Blackie
enjoying some social time on your knee!
Aine Ni Cheallaigh - Beacon, New York
Using Claire's pet-sitting service has been a perfect fit with my needs. With my dog, Rolo, getting older and my long working hours, I needed a professional service that I felt comfortable using. Claire's online booking feature is very easy to use and allows me to make appointments during odd hours, fitting my hectic schedule. In addition, all emails and phone calls are promptly returned. I also really appreciate the Paypal payment feature. Most importantly, the service has been completely reliable, allowing Rolo to get attention whenever I need. It gives me peace of mind knowing that while I am away from home for a long stretch of the day, Rolo is walking, playing and being cared for by an animal lover who Rolo not only trusts, but is excited to see.
Karla Weyand, Beacon, New York
I would HIGHLY recommend Claire. I have used her services, both boarding and walking, on a regular basis. My greyhound/lab mutt, Theo, means the world to me and I am quite picky with whom I entrust with his care. That being said, I trust Claire 100%. She is completely resposible and I can tell that she truly cares for the dogs under her supervision. Theo absolutely adores her and is completly taken with her greyhound, Jessie. My partner and I travel frequently and it's such a joy to know that when we come back home Theo is a happy and healthy dog!
Amanda Cox ~ Cold Spring, New York
Claire has watched our two cats several times in the past 6 months and has been a lifesaver. I really appreciated her notes, as well as her text updates to let us know everything was OK. I know that when we have to go away, we can count on Claire to make sure our cats are well taken care of.
Kim and Barry ~ Beacon New York
I have been using Claire and her team to sit my springer spaniel, Lola, for the last 6 months. They have been reliable and wonderful with Lola. When I come home Lola acts calmer because of the time they spent with her. I could tell she was taken for a long walk by her disposition when I returned.

 I
discovered Claire this fall, and I would recommend her to
anyone. The care and patience she took with our dog, a little terrier who is
not the easiest with strangers, was extraordinary. With Claire, I was able to
leave for work each day over the week Claire sat for us with a confidence
that our girl was in good hands. One of things that I like so much about Claire
is her interest in both the dog and the owner and her way of putting both at
ease. I feel lucky to have found her!
