This was my first time having a stranger stay at my place, so this was a big deal for me. I had a good feeling about Kyle from the start and was excited about the idea of helping a fellow Bostonian see the unparalleled city of Austin. Like me, he works from home in the healthcare industry. I had the privilege of meeting Kyle on the first day of the sit. I found him to be friendly, funny, and affable. As this was my first time having a sitter, I texted Kyle details of the apartment and pet care as I thought of them. I appreciated him baring with me through this as I am working to now compile a user-friendly guide. Kyle was sure to communicate frequently. He updated me often about his arrival and departure and also sent pictures of himself with Gypsy during the stay. He also gave me a heads up about having someone over. The only questions he had were about the laundry, which evidently was the one thing I didn't go over. He was self-sufficient and attentive to the fine details of the apartment and the care of my cat. Kyle relieved the stress of stress of separation anxiety my cat goes through when left alone, therefore relieving me of inevitable guilt. My cat seemed to be at ease when I returned home. I could tell she missed me, but she did not seem stressed whatsoever! As Kyle promised, the apartment was not only just as clean as I left it, but cleaner. I have a bad habit of stuffing my recycling underneath the sink and procrastinating the removal. I was pleasantly surprised to find Kyle emptied the whole thing. In this he must have discovered I'm a beer drinker because he also left me a 6 pack! Not only this, but he left a bunch of food, which is great because I'll eat anything you leave in my apartment. Would absolutely have Kyle again. Highly recommend him to give you and your pets ease when traveling.

CELINE
I had an excellent experience in Lucca with Celine and her wonderful, sweet dog Pato. The house is located in a very tranquil, natural area a few kilometers outside of town. The sound of the nearby stream is always present, something I found quite calming. The house has a large backyard and a swimming pool, both perfect for reading and contemplating. Pato is, without a doubt, the sweetest dog you could ever meet. He doesn't have a bad bone in his body and he gets along with all creatures. He is getting on in years and has some health problems but he is still a very happy dog that loves his walks and that gets incredibly excited around mealtime. I cherished my morning walks with Pato. He doesn't require a leash and he never strays too far from your side. I also loved sitting on the couch with Pato at my side each evening. Celine is a very loving dog owner and would do anything for her sweet boy Pato. She is very communicative and is always available to answer any questions about Pato. You can tell that Pato is her world and she loves him very much. I will definitely hold this experience in my heart and wish both Pato and Celine the best.

Adriana
Dusty dog and Dex the cat were super company at Adriana's lovely Devon home! Both pets were gentle and very much fun so we we played a lot - catch, fetch and with any thing that moved - plus lots of cuddles and stroking. Watching Dusty and Dex play together was also a joy since usually dogs and cats politely tolerate one another , but these two thoroughly enjoyed each others company and in playful moods chased and tumbled to their heart's content.
Robert and I were very comfortable in the cottage which is cosy as well as spacious by design, also very full of natural light. 
Whilst Dex enjoyed the garden when we went out, Dusty came everywhere with us whether we drove or walked. In the car she was a model of behaviour and her company was a joy on our rambles and beach walks. Dusty is polite and gentle with other dogs and simply ignored the less friendly ones!
There is everything you need at Adriana's home for comfort but my favourite was the gorgeous Aga in the kitchen which also has a table for breakfast and a great coffee machine! However, on sunny days I always had brunch outside after taking Dusty on the extremely convenient walk to the park behind the house to the right of the beautifully kept cricket ground which was another bonus being in full view!
Sidmouth is a lovely town, very attractive with a great seafront - however there were lots of other beaches and coastal paths within a half hour radius of Sidbury - these included East Branscombe, Beer, Seaton and Lyme Regis and to the West, Budleigh Salterton, Exmouth and Dawlish. Lyme Regis was very exciting due to the famous amonyte fossil imprints which abound on big stones and boulders.
We also walked through beautiful woods to Blackberry Camp an iron age camp only a few miles from Sidbury. 
Of course Exeter is not too far away for anyone looking for entertainment, however we were too busy with natural beauty all along the coast!
We heartily recommend Adriana's sit home and the very lovable pets and we would love to return again sometime - I'm missing Dusty and Dexter!

Dre & Norm
House/pet sitting for Dre & Norm was super NICE!!

Their 3 fur babies, Jingle Bells, Piper and Isis (Egyptian Goddess) was a treat.

Jingle Bells, an outdoor by day and indoor by night was super shy/reserves in the beginning, but gradually open up closer toward the end of the sittings and became my little buddy that came to visit inside the cottage several times and sat on my lap which Dre told me, Jingle Bells rarely likes to do.  
:0)

Piper (indoor cat), super friendly from the get go, welcomes me with open paws and loves her kibbles & bits down to the past morsels.  Loves to be pet and purrrrs while eating and being pet at the same time.

Isis (indoor cat), the Egyptian Goddess is super chill and graceful in every way.  She likes her morning, noon and night pettings/massages before every meals. As time passes, the Egyptian Goddess Isis welcomes my presence more and more.

As the pet sittings get closer to the end, all 3 adorable cats seem to know and opened up much more and I must confess, taking care of cats are very different and unique 
comparing to dogs.  They are 
like Yin and Yang, a philosophical concept of dualism, complementary rather than opposing.

A FUN sitting with 3 adorable cats in a CHARMING cottage that is beautifully decorated in a style of Dre & Norm, and their hospitality matches that of their home/cottage, warm and welcoming.

HIGHLY recommended, and if one snoozes, one loses.  Glad I was selected to house/pet sit for the 3 COOL cats.

Rachel
Great sit with Sturgil, Loki, and Lyra! 
Rachel explained everything well and Rachel and Andrew’s place was beautiful and cozy. Pets are very sweet, and the house is close to the airport and in a cute neighborhood with a park nearby. Thank you so much again!

We had a lovely time at Sharon's home looking after Rupert and Rosie. The countryside is simply stunning in this rural area. There is fantastic view from the garden and from the nearby walks.

Ruppert is older and calmer than Rosie who is full of beans and wants a lot of attention although they both sleep calmly all night outside the bedroom. Rupert is able to get under the gate on the driveway very quickly so we were caught out and even in the garden with the small garden gate closed he somehow manages to get out under a fence and we weren't aware of this and found him out again. There are long leads to put him on so we then did this even if it was only while we got our walking boots on!

The cottage is very quaint and pretty with everything you need  we visited Tenbury on Wells and Ludlow and went to a local farm shop for lunch on our last day. There are no shops or facilities nearby so a car is essential.

heather
Heather is so nice and welcoming, she went out of her way to bring me the keys before I arrived and I could tell she wanted to make sure I enjoyed my stay with Raph.
She is easy to communicate with and just a genuinely nice human being.
Her place was lovely, clean and comfortable with great access to the tube to get around London when I needed to.
Raphy is the most gorgeous, cuddly, affectionate little boy. I don’t like picking favourites but he really is my favourite. I had a wonderful time with him whilst I was housesitting for Heather, I would definitely come back.
