Joi was a great sitter. She was always very communicative, provided updates every couple days as we requested, and we came home to a happy cat and a clean house. We would definitely recommend her for future stays!

Jane
What a joy to be welcomed by our 2 new pals Selous and Pemba! The most well behaved sweet loving dogs..so hard to say goodbye.
And then when Jane and David came home from their outing they cooked us a delicious dinner. Twice welcomed!
Both Jane and David gave us very clear instructions for caring for their home, gardens and precious girls. And good notes to refer to.
Our constant companions for a week, we loved watering, collecting delicious fresh vege, walking the countryside and lazing by the pool with the Pemba and Selous.
Such a beautiful home and surroundings ...a lovely time in every way. It's too bad we live so far away in NZ! Thankyou Jane and David.

Where to start.... Sara and John are wonderful homeowners who give sitters the best experience! We really felt like family,  sisters from another mister and brothers from another mother. 
The animals each have their own personality and get along so well with each other. Watching a cat nap with chickens is a new experience for us!
I'd recommend this sit to a couple as it's a little much for an individual plus you are very remote literally at the end of the road. 
If you are an internet worker this isn't for you at this point due to the data restrictions. 
Other than that if you love nature, peace and quiet and a variety of animals you'll love you're time in Andros.

David and Paige
Paige and David made great effort to ensure my stay was very comfortable. They left a nice smack bowl full of goodies for me and offered to share their food as well.  Paige created a bulletin board calendar for Lucy's meds with a welcome message as well.  We communicated everyday via t text and photos/videos and had a video call with parents and pups.  The home is lovely, the room was very comfortable and the dogs are charming. The area was beautiful with deer in the yard daily. You'll need to be near aware especially when walking with the dogs. Bears and other predators like doggies, for snacks. Apollo is the super sweet Giant husky, just my little boy the whole visit.  Lincoln definitely "poma-pooed" his way into my heart and decided I belonged to him.   Lucy is a great girl with just enough attitude to keep the boys where she wants 'em.  Such a doll. 
We had a vet visit with Lucy, a trip into town, and a day trip to Yellowstone. They love car rides and like to go 3 directions while walking, but they learn quickly and are all very agreeable.  Love these babies. Thank you all!

Lizzie
What a fantastic sit. 
Lizzie is an amazing and kind woman. Communication with her was always great, both before and during the sit. She gave me clear instructions on the routine of her young and beloved dog Woozle.
Her house is beautiful, clean, tidy and equipped with every comfort. 
Woozle is a lovely dog, full of life and joy, playful and very well behaved. Impossible not to fall in love with her. She loves to have long walks and to meet her friends. 
I would be very happy to take care of my little friend Woozle again, whom I already miss.
I recommend this sit without any hesitation.

Alexandra was a pleasure to sit for. A beyond generous host with awesome communication. Boo, Dobby and Tom are full of character and kept me very entertained. Was quite sad to say goodbye to them! Would hugely recommend

Stephanie
Stephanie’s modern full-amenity apartment building is in a wonderful location of Downtown LA. I always felt safe walking with the dogs or by myself and public transit was very accessible - especially going to/from the airport via LAX flyaway bus at Union Station (also a beautiful landmark). I had a blast trying out Stephanie’s food recommendations - Bottega Louie is right beneath the building and super delicious. You are also just a 10-15 minute walk from the Broad museum, Museum of Contemporary Art, and cool sights like Angels flight railway, Disney concert hall, and the Intercontinental hotel (tallest building on the west coast). 

Stephanie was great to communicate with and responded promptly to calls and texts if I had questions. Kolly and Gigi are darlings with big puppy energy. If you are traveling as a couple, you will have a blast taking the girls out for walks together. If you are a solo sitter, I highly recommend taking Stephanie’s lead and walking the pups separately: first ensuring that one pup is already crated before getting the leash for the other, as they both get very excited about walks and the unleashed one might bolt for the hallway. I found a best practice of allowing only one pup at a time on the balcony to potty as they are both a little too curious about each other’s bathroom business LOL. Gigi is very smart: opening the balcony door on her own when she needs to potty. Kolly is not as vocal about when she needs to go out - but will potty promptly when placed on the balcony (if she needs to). The girls love training treats, wrestling with one another, and watermelon.
