5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

I can't recommend Content enough. I live in a 4th floor apartment currently and we brought home an 8 week old puppy in January. We met Content the day after the pup came home and she was thorough in her questions and very up front in her approach and game plan for each visit. She comes twice a day until the pup is old enough for daycare and I feel extremely confident and comfortable with the level of service the dog and I get. I am totally bummed that the daily visits will stop soon, but am going to make sure we have plenty of future opportunities to recommend and use Content's services. We tell everyone how great she is. People in our complex, and it is huge, tell me about her and the puppy outside and how much fun she seems to have with her. She's great!

Pros: She has experience, patience and is super friendly

Cons: NONE

We felt very comfortable with this petsitting business and will definitely use them in the future. I had a few unconventional needs, and they were accommodated without a problem. Highly recommended.

Pros: Enjoy being away without worrying about the "family" at home.

Cons: We rarely leave town

Content has always taken such good care of my boys and loved them like family. I highly recommend her services to anyone who loves their pets and wants the best for them. And a special note, I had a sick dog that Content took such good care of. Whatever his needs were, she was able to accommodate them. She's the best.

Pros: Energetic, Friendly, Trustworthy

I have used a lot of pet sitting services over the years but I prefer Content. Why? My nieghbors always watch out for my house and they report that Content is always on time as we agreed and spends plenty of time with the critters. Plus my dog loves her: can't get a better recommendation than that!!

Just wanted to add my high praise for Content's wonderful way with cats. She kitty-sat for us while we were out of town for a whole week. She is extremely customer-n-cat focussed. She followed all of our instructions to the letter (food/water/kittybox/brushing/going outside), picked up our mail and newspapers, and left us a personal note detailing how the week went. When she stopped by the following week, my cat ran right to her! She's the BEST!

Pros: Great Attitude and Excellent Service

Cons: No cons

Content has been taking care of my dog and cat on weekends that I'm away for over a year now. She's been nothing short of wonderful. My pets are always happy and well fed when I get home, and she's very attentive to changes in their health and behavior. I'd recommend her to anyone.

Content is terrific! She really loves animals and, although my cat misses me as much as a cat can, he's really happy having Content come visit and take care of him when I'm out of town. He has a ton of meds, and Content is always very accurate, and careful to ask if anything's changed since last time. When I've had to go away when my cat's been under the weather, she's always really good about calling or emailing to let me know how he's doing. You couldn't ask for a better, more caring petsitter.

Pros: Great communication, cares about your pet

Cons: Non

Since Content Knowles of Harlequin Pet Services began walking my dogs back in early December, they have lost weight and gained a new friend! Content is completely reliable, detail oriented, and endlessly energetic. She is constantly leaving me notes about her daily walks with my Australian Cattle Dog and Pembroke Welsh Corgi, updating me on such issues as their stamina, mood, and even poops! She gives fantastic advice on behavioral issues, and since she suggested shoulder harnesses instead of limited-choke collars, their walks have become smooth and easy. Finding Content was just what our little family needed, and we would be all but lost without her. Harlequin rocks!

I learned of Content after asking around at work and a co-worker highly recommended her. She now walks my dog about 3 times a week and has pet sat for me once so far. She's absolutely great and very easy to work with! When my schedule changed at work she was able to accommodate it. My pets really like her and she gives me health and general updates that are just invaluable. When she pet sat she took care of all of my critters (2 gerbils, 1 needy cat, and a spunky dog) and I didn't have to worry as I knew they were being well looked after. She even brought in my mail! I plan to continue to use Content's services for a long time to come.

Content has been walking my elderly dog ladies several times a week for over a year. She also pet sits while I'm out of town - and isn't phased by giving meds or even shots to my diabetic dog. My girls love her and really enjoy their time together. She's very attentive to their needs and health changes - which gives me a lot of peace of mind. I highly recommend her!
