I hired Scottie to take care of my 2 cats - one is an "outside" cat and the other one is an indoor cat, along with my Koi pond. I gave him VERY DETAILED STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS on how to take care of my pets and TOLD HIM THE DAYS I NEEDED HIM to come to my house and care for my pets. I explained to Scottie the reason the "outside" cat must stay outside at night is because she has behavioral issues with urinating on furniture therefore do NOT let her spend the night in the house! I have a fully fenced yard with lush landscaping along the back, as well as an in-ground pool, a huge covered porch that has a large table and chairs, a ceiling fan, a porch swing, a cat bed, cat toys, a big bowl of food and water, etc., so my "outside" cat is by no means suffering. When I came home, several weeks later, and after a very long day of traveling, I put my key in the door and started to open my door when all of a sudden this HORRIBLE, PUTRID, OVERWHELMING, STENCH OF CAT URINE hit me right in the face!! I could barely breathe!! I thought to my self - what in God's name has happened in here?? I found my "outside" cat sitting at the back door BEGGING to be let out! I had to leave my back doors open that night in an attempt to get some of the stench out! I called Scottie the next morning and asked him what the hell was my "outside" cat doing in my house? He claimed he "couldn't catch her" so he just left her inside the whole time. I have a 2,000 square foot house that is an open floor plan and ALL MY DOORS were CLOSED. All you had to do is open the back door and she would have RAN OUT!! Scottie chose on his own, to instead, lock my "OUTSIDE" cat IN MY HOUSE the ENTIRE TIME I WAS GONE!! The end result is, my "outside" cat had urinated and vomited ALL OVER MY FURNITURE -- my couch, my loveseat, my recliner, my chaise lounge chair, my hardwood floors, my tile floors and Scottie NEVER BOTHERED TO CLEAN IT UP!! It had CRYSTALIZED on my hardwood floors!! I don't know if I will be able to get the urine and the smell out of the furniture or if it will need to be thrown away. There was also cat litter strewn ALL OVER THE FLOOR!! I have two litter boxes and I couldn't believe the mess that was just left there ... Scottie didn't even bother to sweep that up either!! Oh, I almost forgot to mention, Scottie also didn't even come to my house on some scheduled days, yes, you read that right, he was a NO SHOW and he was paid IN ADVANCE!! These are MOST DEFINITELY not the traits of a PROFESSIONAL PET SITTER!! Scottie is irresponsible in every capacity!

I would NEVER EVER RECOMMEND SCOTTIE PRINCE DBA POOKIE BROTHERS PETTING SITTING TO ANYONE!!!

He doesn't return text messages in a timely fashion, he doesn't return telephone calls in a timely fashion -- he ALWAYS is complaining he is having cell phone problems with his Motorola phone; who cares? That is NOT the clients' problem or responsibility, IT IS YOURS, SCOTTIE!! You are running a business!! Get a reliable working phone! He also doesn't respond to e-mails sent to him for days!!

**BEWARE - I DO NOT RECOMMEND POOKIE BROTHERS PET SITTING - I DO NOT RECOMMEND SCOTTIE PRINCE **
