Olga, Igor, and baby Mathew took great care of my three dogs. I really appreciated the updates and the photos. They were very respectful of my home and kept it very tidy. I would definitely have them back anytime.

We had a fantastic stay here with the best company - Bundle, Samba and Olive. 

Bundle and Samba are very easy going, and enjoy a walk around the beautiful countryside surrounding the house. They were wonderful company during our stay and came with us to explore walks nearby too! Olive joined us on a few walks too and loved a cuddle on the sofa in the evenings. 

Diana and James were excellent with communication and made us feel very welcome. The house is located in a gorgeous part of the country with walks from the house and quaint towns and villages nearby for a weekend stroll.

We highly recommend this sit and would love to return if ever needed!

We had such a nice time with dear Jango at Brigitte's place. Although we couldn't meet in person, she and her husband were the most welcoming hosts. They provided us with fresh beer, snacks and a detailed guide of the house and area, recommendations on places to eat and nice walks. The house is connected to fields and wood, and was very clean and comfortable. Jango is a super kind and easy dog, always happy to go for a walk, get cuddles or play with his tennis ball. We can definitely recommend!

What an ideal housesit! Robi and Nora were very well behaved and the location was perfect for proximity to shopping, trail running, exploring or just hanging out in a beautiful home in a quiet, friendly community. Kara and Ryan were a pleasure to communicate with, quick to respond if we had any concerns, and went out of their way to make sure our stay was most enjoyable.

Nora is an absolute sweetheart, very well mannered and likes to wander off-lead in the back yard forest but doesn’t go very far. She’s very social and personable with other dogs, as well as people. Robi is well suited for the nickname ninja as she kept us on our toes whenever she thought a door was going to open. She’s very loving and playful though, and a great snuggle buddy during movie times.  :-)

We had a wonderful time house sitting for Kara and Ryan and highly recommend it!

Great experience for my first house/pet sit.  Pre-sit information was comprehensive and I loved staying in this comfortable flat in Morningside.  Easy parking and plenty buses into city centre.  Near shops and lovely park walks too for walking Midnight who was easy to look after - a lovely, gently dog.   Nouse the cat was a joy to look after too.

Had a great experience house sitting for Jason in Seattle. Instructions were clear and he was great at communicating. The space was clean and comfortable with everything needed for 10 days in downtown Seattle. Kahlua took a couple of days to warm up, but once she did she rarely left my lap. She was sweet and playful and a great companion. The neighborhood is very hilly, so be prepared for a bit of a workout!

From start to finish it was a complete pleasure house and pet sitting for Marmaduke. 
We had great communication with Karen and Chris throughout, such lovely people. They made us very welcome and even gave use some honey from their own bees. 
Everything was as described with clear notes and instructions. The house and garden were beautiful, it was great to see the fruit and veg beds growing while we were there, the berries tasted fabulous.
Marmaduke was very affectionate and easy to look after. We loved our cuddles and although only there for a short time we will miss him. 
We enjoyed walks from the cottage, the countryside is beautiful and it was so peaceful. We would love to look after Marmaduke again if the opportunity arises.
