Brian and Estella took great care of our cat Ardi and our home. Only hick up was that They had to leave a day earlier than expected but a neighbor was able to take over pet care for the day. Overall Brian and Estella were a great fit and we would work with them again.

What can I say? As you can see from my profile I have done many sits, but this was unquestionably an absolute dream. The house is idyllic and Mimi is not simply a cat, she is a companion with whom it is far too easy to fall in love. James and Francesca were supportive and generous throughout- always available, always warm and friendly and always informative. I The area is both convenient and lively, with swift access to the heart of London. Yet at the same time the street is so peaceful that one could be in the countryside. If you manage to get this sit you can count yourself lucky!!!

It was a great experience taking care of Lola, Milo and Geppetto and staying at Caroline and Tjakko's place. Lola is fun, sweet and easy to care for. We enjoyed walking her around the neighbourhood and on the beautiful canyon trail. Lola warmed up with us pretty quickly and became my working buddy in no time. She loves playing with her toys and being petted; while most of the time she just wanted to be around us, sleeping or chilling by my side. Milo and Geppetto are lovely cats. Milo enjoys nice scratches on his face and would let you know if he wants attention. Geppetto likes to have his alone time while once in a while likes some affection too.

Caroline and Tjakko’s home is nice and comfortable. It is located in a quiet neighbourhood, close to nature yet not far from San Diego. Communication with them couldn’t be easier! They showed us around the house before the sit started and responded to our questions in a timely manner before and during the sit. They have dedicated working spaces which is a fantastic bonus, as we are both working from home. We also enjoyed cooking in their kitchen and watching the beautiful sunset!

Definitely recommend the sit to pet lovers!

We had a wonderful time caring for Ollie and Zuma at Elizabeth’s place in Nice! From the beginning, Elizabeth was very warm and friendly and made us feel right at home. Her flat was left in perfect condition for us and she made sure we had everything we needed. She was very easy to communicate with and is a really kind person. 

Ollie and Zuma are so fun! They have very different personalities. Ollie will be your best friend right away and will seek out your attention. Zuma takes a little longer to warm up, but when he does, he’s so lovely. They’re very easy to take care of and are great pets to spend time with. 

The flat was really lovely. The view is so incredible! There’s a bit of an uphill walk after the tram or bus stop, but it’s well worth it for the view. The flat is equipped with everything you need and more. There are several grocery stores within a 15-minute walk and there’s plenty of public transport nearby to get in and out of the city.

We can’t recommend this sit enough. Thank you, Elizabeth! :)

Ruth
The communication with Ruth was excellent, the house is spacious and clean, the garden is big too. It's a quiet area, so good for relaxing but still within the city limits. Blixten is one of the friendliest and easy-going cats I had, she will be your friend immediately. Furthermore she and the hens are low maintenance. I definitely can recommend this stay without any reservations.

Aaron
Aaron was awesome! His house is very comfortable and his kittens were so friendly. He is a great chef and baker and left some goods for us to enjoy. Great sit, I highly recommend it to anyone looking to sit!

Amy
Waffles is the most adorable kitty! She is kind of silent during the day, even though you know she always wants pets, but in the morning when we would wake up, she would stretch out on her back in front of my feet for a belly rub. She is really darling, and easy to care for. She likes to hang out nearby you, kind of wherever you are. She is a dedicated companion, and Amy and Guyton a wonderful hosts. They were easy to communicate with, thorough, and I felt supported all along the way. Really lovely folks, I couldn't recommend more highly.
