Alexandra
We both enjoyed looking after Harry and Lulu. Alex had everything that we needed on hand and we loved meeting everyone that helped on the farm. We were close to the shops and enjoyed daytrips to visit lovely villages and historic homes nearby.The two dogs were very well behaved and a pleasure for anyone to look after. I hope Alex,Tim, Harry and Lulu are enjoying their new home.

Taylor
I really enjoyed this sit. Taylor and Sean were great hosts, they are friendly, and easy to communicate with. Their house is wonderful, and so is their beautiful wooded property. 
It was fun to hang out with Maggie, Opie, Lynx, and Pickles, and help out, for a week this summer.  They have a new addition of a puppy, Asha,
who is a lovely dog. The 2 cats and 2 big dogs used a dog door to go out independently.
I walked Asha. frequently throughout the day, in their front yard, which is like a nature trail. 
The dogs and cats make a nice family of pets, they liked to play, have treats, and nap. Opie was particularly cozy on the couch with me, & napping. They are all nice animals. The cats are sweet. 
It was a relaxing week. I was able to see the surrounding towns and enjoy lunch out, & a cafe.

Lena & Andi
Andi & Lena welcomed us in a tidy house nd took their time to discuss the handover of Aziraphale & Crowley. The house is very well maintained, comfortable and they provided us with a practical handover. We were welcomed with fresh fruits and tasty snacks. They kindly offered us her pushbikes. We had a relaxing time staying at her house.
Although Aziraphale & Crowley were having medication in their food, they were easy to take care off. It took both some time to get used to us, but they were willing to share play time. 
The train station is nearby making a visit to Cologne straightforward. Try the Ludwig museum and, of course, the Dom. 
This housesit comes highly recommended.

Nur
I have solid reasons to rate this house sit 3 stars or lower. What I really like about it is the location. The neighborhood offers endless opportunities to enjoy a walk or a ride, and I appreciate having a bike provided by Nur. The connection to London Paddington is handy and fast, though it can be unreliable if GWR trains are canceled. The Elizabeth Line runs like clockwork but takes 15 minutes longer and is usually crowded. Both cats are very nice, and it’s fun to have them around.

The flat is too small, but this wouldn't be an issue if it weren't cluttered with various items, making cleaning quite challenging, life uncomfortable, and dusty. Additionally, the vacuum cleaner is too large for this apartment. It’s a single-body model meant for a big house with open spaces, making it absolutely unsuitable for operating in very limited spaces, which makes each cleaning session painful. I was told it’s a new house, but the shared hallway is stinky and looks disgusting as if it has never been cleaned. I tried to get rid of at least junk mail, but it looks like nobody cares. The quality of accommodation cuts off at least one star.

As for my relationship with the host lady and my duties, I stayed in touch all the time and followed the instructions without asking questions. I had a special instruction about Loya’s vomit: giving a cream every day and cleaning the vomit, if it happened, was not complicated, and I saw it just a few times. An unpleasant incident occurred when I took a pink cushion from an almost destroyed armchair in my room downstairs. The cats had definitely urinated on it before, and it had been washed. Nevertheless, the familiar smell triggered urination again, and the smell was awful. As I didn’t have any specific instructions on this, I did my best from my point of view. I washed it and never used the cushion again. I departed before Nur came back home, and of course, the most important questions I texted her were: “Are the cats healthy and cheerful? Is the flat clean?” However, she started complaining about the smell caused by her cat and the vomit she found in a hidden place. All my efforts were disregarded, which forced me to cut off the second star from my feedback.

If you dare to take this sit because of the location, require a printed list of due-to-report cases and stick to it. Be ready to move that bulky vacuum cleaner every day with little effect and tolerate the musty, smelly shared hallway.

Had a good time in Manchester looking after Frenchie & Omelette. Instructions left by Caroline were easy to follow & she was always on hand to text if I had any questions.

Rosamond
It was a great sit! Everything was explained before I started the sit, Ros was also available on the phone throughout the sit in case I had any questions.

Ruby & Bobby were lovely, it was a pleasure to take care of them and spend time together! Ruby & Bobby have a routine which works great and it's straightforward. The house is very nice, comfortable and clean. The location is wonderful and there're many restaurants/cafés nearby. I really recommend it, I would pet-sit here again without any hesitation!
