I really hope that anyone considering using this petsitter reads this review. I booked with Skye to watch my older dacshund Rudy in June 2026. Skye reached out to me on the day I was scheduled to arrive home and said that she was heading out but oh by the way Rudy seemed to be "panting" alot the evening before and that day. She stated she would turn the a/c down for him. She did not send any other information about his condition. She did not contact a vet to ask about or evaluate his symptoms. I arrived home 5 hours later to my dog in labored breathing, unable to lift himself up. I immediately rushed him to an emergency vet, spent hundreds of dollars trying to save him but ultimately he died in my arms less than 3h later. Rudy died from fluid accumulation pressing down on his lungs and suffocated to death. This is not something that develops rapidly, he had been in this state for at least 24h before his death per the vet. As an "EMT", and petsitter, Skye should have been able to tell the difference between "panting" and labor breathing - she did nothing and left my dog to slowly suffocate alone and scared. This review is genuinely to warn other pet owners that this woman is not qualified to take care of your dog, especially if they are older or have medical conditions. Please seek petsitting services elsewhere, I wish everyday that I had.
I'm not sure if Skye will respond to this or not (she has threatened to) but I have texts, vet bills, and medical records from his emergency treatment that I am happy to share if she denies this. Feel free to reach out to me (I'm not sure how adding a reply works on here) and I'm happy to provide you with the documents to show that everything I have stated is true. She has been paid for her services (again this is documented) and has filed a claim in small claims court to extract more money.
If you care about your babies, I would seriously think twice before booking with her.
