From one…
It’s a typical story ~ an idea that quickly outgrew itself.
When my cousin Carey needed help caring for her home and dog while she was away on a business trip,I took my trusty Boxer (Allie) along to care for Bear and keep the Round Oak fired for the week. When she returned she said, “You know, there’s a real need for this service here in the area.” And thus began my Housesitting and Pet Care Business, Gypsy Soul.
I posted my first ad on our local Front Porch Forum and was immediately overwhelmed. What I anticipated to be a part-time job became a scheduling nightmare. I was soon going from house to house with little time being spent at home! So I did what all growing businesses do – I reached out for help. By the end of that first year I had already created a network of two, and Gypsy Soul LLC was born.
… to Many

“We’re a tall order with four labs, and Becke Machia and her team at Gypsy Soul have been nothing short of amazing! They handle our pack with patience, skill, and a great sense of humor, giving us total peace of mind when we are traveling. They’ve been incredibly accommodating with schedule changes and travel delays, and our dogs absolutely adore them. Exceptional people, happy dogs, and great value. Highly recommend Gypsy Soul to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and professional pet care providers.”

“We just got back from a few weeks out west and wanted to recommend Becke Machia of Gypsy Soul LLC for your pet sitting needs. She was very responsive, is insured, and can provide references… and that’s only the start! Becke sent us regular updates and even took our furbaby (Hank) out on play dates to improve his social skills. It was such a good experience that we even returned to an improved dog AND a home that had been watched & secured in our absence. In 14 days she didn’t just do the basics… she obviously worked with him on a few behaviors too. You would be lucky to have Gypsy Soul LLC booked for your next trip away.”

“I can wholeheartedly recommend A Gypsy Soul LLC for pet sitting because of the wonderful loving care they provided to our sweet dog, Ollie while we were away on vacation. We had an initial meet and greet date with Evelyn and Ollie immediately fell in love! She had wonderful energy, was compassionate, reliable and communicated with us about his well-being with daily updates and photos. This put our minds at ease while we were away and we will definitely be using their services again in the near future!”
