Sometimes one has to count his and her lucky stars. On our recent trip to Boston to visit family we had the absolute pleasure and good fortune to have had the opportunity to meet Deb and John. From our first communications and introductions via the web and our last goodbye at the airport my wife and I, and of course our not so little Hoodoo, felt blessed to have been in their company. They gave the upmost best of care and displayed genuine affection towards our beloved Hoodoo. One knows when their furry companion has been well cared for by the greeting you receive upon your return. Hoodoo displayed as much love and affection towards Deb and John as he does us when we had the short opportunity to be together before their departure homeward bound. From the great updates and photos of their adventures with Hoodoo, to the delicious soup and impeccable straight lines in our mowed lawn, and the immaculate condition of our home and wonderful feedback from our friends at our local dog park, we feel blessed to have had Deb and John as the caregivers to our much loved Hoodoo. But most of all we made wonderful friends and look forward to visiting them both on our trip to Ontario. We all miss you already!!! In closing, one should consider themselves lucky if Deb and John decide to be caregivers of your loved pet during your absence. Sincerely Hoodoo, Heather, and Nicholas.

Laura
Having Veronique pet sit for us was so easy!  We came back to a very clean house and a happy cat!  Communication was effortless both prior to and during the visit.  We would definitely use her again!

Samantha took good care of our little Sumo while we were away for the long weekend. She was very patient with a plumbing issue in our bathroom. Thanks for everything!

Alexandra was great and so was Bryn- shy girl but she warmed up to me after a few days, and we had a nice time together with her sleeping at the foot of the bed with me and going on a few walks. the location of the home is amazing and gorgeous in nature!

Amy
I had a wonderful stay in Santa Fe at Amy's home.  The home is beautiful and has everything you could need. Amy left great notes as well as showed me around. She also was available via text the whole time. The back deck is perfect for bird watching during the day and star gazing at night.
Amy took her dogs with her this trip, so I only had Franklin. He's an adorable kitten, full of energy and loves to play as well as cuddle. He's a bit of an escape artist, but once I had a system down to keep him in, it was smooth sailing. I'd recommend this stay to anyone. My only regret was that is wasn't longer.

Charlotte
We looked after Oscar for a week at the end of September.  He was great fun: busy and active most of the time and then cute and sleepy the rest.    He and Sean had many snoozes together on the sofa and he was great with our little girl.  

Charlotte's home is very nice.  It is spacious and comfortable with terrific views and a great library of fascinating books.  We came without a car and found transport into and out of Brighton easy with a good bus service.   It is not cheap, but Brighton and Hove transport service offers special deals.  We have a 2 year old and Ovingdean has a little shop and a tiny park which she loved.  She was also very keen on Maisie's trampoline.  Unfortunately, the weather was terrible which limited our explorations a bit, but a highlight was a lovely walk over Beacon Hill to the pretty village of Rottingdean.  Thank you Charlotte for a warm, cosy house sit.

Michelle and her family were amazing hosts, she provided us with so much useful information on Bracken, her beautiful home and the area! Bracken was a dream to look after, he was no bother whatsoever and loved our company and give us lots of cuddles! Amazing housesit, we would definitely come back 😊

Hallie and Sunny
Hallie and Sunny organised a video call orientation and their welcome guide was thorough and easy to recall. The tidiness, access to film streaming services, guest bedroom view of the trees, and being greeted by the loveable pets made the sit homely and enjoyable. The area has amenities within walking distance and park walks all around. On a clear day, you can see mountains across the road. Halie and Sunny promptly responded to any queries and were very flexible on how long we were able to stay out. We miss Theo, Jag and Shasta a lot already. Thank you for accommodating us on our first trip to Canada!

Jessica and Mauricio are great hosts and a lovely, very friendly couple, their home is very comfortable and situated right next to the beach with a couple of bar/restaurants too, what more can you ask for!
We had forgotten how much fun it is to have two (9 month) kittens again, although one was still recovering after an operation, the other one more than made up for it!  We loved taking care of them.
If you enjoy walking it was an easy one hour walk up to the marina in Malaga which we did, and there is also a huge Carrefour hypermarket less than a mile away from the house.
Thankyou for having us.
