Rachel
Wow! The sit for Rachel and Hank was absolutely top-shelf!

Hank is a complete joy and a true ambassador for his noble breed. If you know Great Pyrenees, you LOVE Great Pyrenees. They are renowned for a gentle nature, loyalty, and head-turning good looks, and Hank is no exception. He was easy to walk, setting a slow, deliberate pace. The few times he'd want to get pointed back toward home versus continuing, I'd pull out my old trick of gently leading him in a circle and he'd continue on our way. 

A perfect companion, he was quite content to lounge nearby while I worked. He slept soundly through the night. Mildly standoffish (nothing beyond what most dogs exhibit), he was happily accepting tummy scratches and all over rubs by day two and giving the most awesome huge grins.

NOTE: For Hank's sake, please be aware of a prior sitter's experience of Hank avail himself of a poorly secured gate to get out and do a "Pyr Perimeter Patrol" of the neighborhood. I have no doubt this good boy would have returned home, but it's every sitter's worst nightmare to have a pet escape or get injured.

Rachel was an exceptional host, leaving clear directions, a spotless home, and even a delicious spicy noodle dish for a meal.  Her experience as an Airbnb host shines through. She is warm, friendly, and gracious. She responded to communication in an appropriate timeframe and left everything well set for a successful sit experience.

Rachel's lovely home is located in one of Austin's BEST older neighborhoods. I'm a 20+ year resident of the area and I, like many Austinites, adore the Holly neighborhood! The area is highly walkable and within easy striking distance of parks, walking trails, coffee shops, restaurants, and public transportation. It's an easy bike ride just across the river into downtown Austin and all it has to offer.

The home itself feels bigger than it is, owing to an open floor plan and a big window onto the front sitting porch. It is quiet during the day and at night.  The kitchen had everything needed and room in the fridge for the items I brought.

To sum it up, if you have the chance to sit for Rachel and with gorgeous Hank, don't miss the chance! I will happily return any time I'm invited and my schedule allows.

Thank you Rachel and hugs to Hank!

Jen and Simon’s place was so comfortable, and their dog Marlow was an absolute sweetheart to look after. They were very kind and easy to communicate with. We loved our time in beautiful Halifax and would definitely sit for them again!

First of all, thank Karen for trusting me and being such a good person to me.

From the first minute he was clear and precise with the instructions and he was also always available for what he needed. The house is very comfortable and has everything you need to enjoy and relax. You definitely fall in love with the place and everything around it. Beaches, parks and diversity of activities in the area and it's also all free! Karen gives you everything you need and also welcomes you with a dinner and a tour of all the areas of interest in the area, she also answers all the questions you have.

I would definitely love to take care of your house again and enjoy the best area of Florida!

Had a fun and entertaining time sitting with Finn and Sam, two handsome and robust Labradors in Miranda. The sit was split over two dates which was convenient as we had friends and family in the Shire.

Exceptional Housesitting Experience in Plettenberg Bay

My recent housesitting experience in Plettenberg Bay was nothing short of exceptional from the moment I arrived, I was greeted by four dogs and two cats, each exuding warmth, friendliness, and impeccable obedience. The animals' are easygoing and the nature made my stay both enjoyable and rewarding.

The location itself was a dream come true. Situated just a five-minute walk from the beach, with a picturesque walk overlooking Robberg, the setting couldn't have been more idyllic. Whether it was morning walks along the shore or leisurely strolls admiring the coastal scenery, every moment was filled with serenity and beauty.

I was particularly impressed by the clear instructions provided by the homeowner. From caring for the animals to managing the household, every detail was meticulously outlined, ensuring a seamless and stress-free experience.

Overall, my time housesitting in Plettenberg Bay was beyond compare. The combination of delightful companionship, stunning surroundings, and thoughtful guidance made it an unforgettable stay. I would highly recommend this housesitting opportunity to anyone seeking a tranquil retreat with furry friends in tow.

Everything was great, Simba is an amazing kitten and we will miss him so much. The apartment is super well located, the forest is less than 5 minutes away by foot and bus stops that can take you downtown are close by. We deeply recommend this sitting, Luxembourg became out best experience so far. Thanks for everything Veselina 😄
