Paul and Marsha
Chloe is the sweetest little dog.  I took care of her over  New Years and had a lovely quiet time with her. 
Marsha and Paul have a lovely home and pool in a very convenient location on the Northside of Brisbane.  
Their house is  clean and tidy and un-cluttered and I was very comfortable there.  
Marsha was lovely and welcoming and I recommend them as house sit hosts.

Darlene
This was our very first house/pet sit and it was such a fun and positive experience...we'd do it again in a heartbeat! 

Darlene and Herbert made us feel so welcome in their beautiful home which is full of natural light with amazing views of the ocean and Vancouver Island. They were such gracious hosts and invited us a day early to show us the area, and to get to know them and their sweet Bella! This was so helpful to get oriented to their home and for Bella to get acquainted with us. All instructions/notes were clear and after reviewing everything we enjoyed a delicious dinner and evening with Darlene and Herbert...they are lovely people who shared some great stories about their travels and adventures! The next morning they took us out on one of the best trails that is basically right outside their door and goes down to the beach. The area is very accessible to several trails and we enjoyed taking Bella out for some long walks everyday. She knows the trails well and will lead you the entire way.

A highlight of course was Bella who we absolutely loved! She is sooo sweet and smart!!! She was a little shy with us at first but after a few hours she became more playful and would go get her ball for us to throw. And she loves her walks, swims...and her treats!!!!

During our stay we were only able to get a few glimpses of Abbie as she would stay by herself in the office or lower level of the house. But she was eating regularly and using her kitty litter so we knew she was doing well. We woud also find her string up on her cat tree where we would put out treats so it was clear she was quietly moving around the house trying not to be noticed. We also enjoyed seeing all of the hummingbirds at both the front and back of the house!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and are grateful to Darlene and Herbert for giving us this opportunity. We hope we get the chance to see them again in the future. We're definitely looking forward to more travel and house sitting adventures!

Cheers!

Verity & Stephane
I have been invited privately by Stephane & Verity to keep Quipu while they were in Spain for Easter. It was supposed initially to be a 4 days sit then they asked me to stay a day longer. It was easy for me as I live only 50 km further
 I warned Quipu’s owners their cat was meowing the first night of my stay in a way I thought he could suffer from pain, he tried often to pee without any result and the vet took him the following morning in emergency : he had a cystisis. Which implied a change of food, a change in his daily routine… I had to pay the bill 194€, but got the money back before leaving.
Quipu is quite a wild cat, you don’t see him much during the day, he only comes back to take a nap (even in April, it can be pretty hot outside in Provence). It did not take him long to adopt me. To forget I had tried to pour some medication in his mouth, what he hated !
This charming tiny house is only 700 meters from Lourmarin,  a lovely village, looking on a rather abandoned garden. The confort was minimum : only one pan, no microwave, no dish washer or washing machine, not even a tea pot, no deckchair, no tv or radio. 
One thing was really shocking : the filthy mattress (I badly noticed when I took the  sheets away). This doll house is not Stephane and Quipu’s but even if they rent it, they could have bought a mattress cover for their guests.
