Emmi kindly agreed to come the day before I left which was much appreciated and I was happy to pick her up from the train station. She was a lovely bubbly, friendly person, easy to have in my home. Emmi contacted me once when I was away with a picture of Alfie on a walk and on one other occasion to seek help with feeding Alfie as she had a personal appt that overlapped his evening meal time. I was happy to do this as had offered support like that from sister who lived nearby if she wanted to leave him for longer than the preferred 4-5 hours, something I offer to all my sitters so they can enjoy the local area. Unfortunately she did leave him for longer than I anticipated or my sister would have taken him to her house. I think Emmi struggled with planning ahead travel arrangements to and from Edinburgh perhaps not anticipating how long buses took, though trains half the time but don’t run after midnight. Alfie seemed relaxed around Emmi though I think his walking and feeding routine was not as he was accustomed to. I always tell sitters just to leave the bedding etc as I am happy to do all that when I get home preferring the attention to be on Alfie. Emmi left my home tidy though I would have preferred half eaten food to have been removed from the fridge and maybe the bathroom bin emptied Emmi seemed to have left her packing until the very last minute so was a bit rushed when I got home but we did make it to the train station in time for her onward journey

Samantha
Luna and Sam's cottage and garden were a delight. Sam left flowers and food which lasted me for the first week. Thanks! 
Was very lucky with the weather so sat out a lot in the italienesque courtyard and walled garden with Luna who enjoyed the sunshine and had her 'hiding' place at the back. The cottage was very comfy and with some real special touches. Luna followed me around and had her own sitting/sleeping places. Communication was good at all times via WhatsApp. Sam left me her New Forest parking disc which was very convenient. Note: Sam warned me about Luna not liking other dogs and I found out about this soon enough when we ran into some other local farm dogs so I stayed clear and walked her in the quiet areas around the cottage and in the new forest (beautiful) 5 mins in car, where I could eventually let her off leash if no one there and we both really enjoyed it. Would and will happily sit again!

It was an absolute pleasure to hang out with Leia and Luna - they are so easy to be with. Sara and Philippe made me feel so welcomed, too. Their home is so cosy, inspiring and inviting, I actually had to kick myself out a few times to enjoy the city.  The station is not far at all and you can get groceries within walking distance. A happy sit!

Colleen was a great communicator and adaptable to make a last minute sit work.

Soba was super friendly, meeting me at the door even in my first visit. He loves cuddles, so definitely needs a sitter. He's not with you 24/7, but loves cuddles when he is. We had fun playing with some of his toys. 

Colleen's place is super handy to town, shops and buses. She was lovely to deal with. I felt very welcome staying. It's nice watching the sunset from her deck.

Deb & Kim and their fur family were all great hosts.  Their house was comfortable and welcoming and had a great location. Dani, Peat, and Bohdi were all so cuddly and sweet. They were all easy to take care of and well behaved, we enjoyed walks, the backyard and cuddles and lots of purring from Bohdi. I Would sit for them again and would also recommend others to sit for them too.
