Emily and Greg were our first housesitters and it was a wonderful start for us. They went out of their way to ensure that we were comfortable with us and even more important, that Rebel was comfortable with them. I was fortunate they lived in the next neighborhood over so they stopped by several times to walk with Rebel and me and the day before our trip, Emily came by to take him out alone to ensure there were no issues with a stranger coming into the home while we were gone. In addition, Rebel is a large rescue dog and, although he is usually well behaved, none of us were sure how he would be when we left as we adopted him during the pandemic and we have been home pretty much 24/7. In addition, she had to attempt to keep Rebel from consuming too many cicadas which was a chore in itself. All went perfectly. Our house was left tidy and she even had to clean up some things that Rebel got into - he loves pillows, tissues and plastic bags. This was by no means her fault, we left them where he could get them.....and he did:) Emily communicated with me by text daily and we talked about how it went once we returned home. We came home to a happy dog which of course made us very happy and more comfortable with doing this again. Feel free to reach out to me if you need more information about this housesit. I would be delighted if they were able to housesit for us in the future and recommend them without reservations.

It was a pleasure staying with Barney, Biscuit, the poultry and the fish.
Biscuit is a very loving and energetic dog who LOVES to get petted and to play outside. Barney is quite old and can’t see very well anymore so you have to guide him to his food but he as well is very loving. 
In total I had a great experience in Kylie’s house with her pets! 
Thanks for having me:)

Trudi
Ted & Mabel are the loveliest pair of Spaniels you'll ever meet. Mabel has never heard the phrase "personal space," and Ted will become your best buddy after a little time. They are both so happy and well-acclimated to their home and the neighboring MOD land. You can readily let them off the lead once in the wooded area, and they will happily return from far and wee with a call of "treats!" In the house, they will snuggle and love on you as much as you wish.

As for the house itself, it's comfortable and clean. The homeowners, Trudi and Lee, have created a wonderful home for themselves and the puppy pair. Good internet speed if you work online. Really nice kitchen. Trudi provided one of the best welcome guides I've seen. They said to use the house as if it were my own. The neighbors are quiet and friendly.  The bed and bath are outstanding.

Communication before, during, and after was top-notch. I highly recommend this sit.

This was a sit where nothing went as planned, but the 5-star review is genuine! Sarah & Luca had a sudden family emergency and couldn't travel, and so our sit never happened. That said, their communications and concern about OUR plans - while they dealt with their emergency - was truly top-notch. Can't say enough good about how they have treated a very difficult situation! We'd sit for them in a heart-beat.

Perfect sitt! Meghan was very communicative and hospitable, Moly & Berkeley are the cutest dogs. The house is very comfortable and welcoming. We had great time with the pups. My kids totally fell in love with them. The town is small and quiet. 
A perfect place to relax and hangout with the dogs.
