We had the rare opportunity to meet Louise, Don and Margaux beforehand as we were in the neighbourhood, and we had immediately a click with them. Margaux is a lovely, brave and very well behaved dog!
We enjoyed our walks with her, watching her trying to chase deer (of course always out of her league......) and playing with a wooden stick which we had to find and give her! Back home she relaxed in one of her baskets or was trying to tempt us to play with her with one of her toys.
We also enjoyed the cosy and comfortable house which realy felt like home for us! During our stay we kept regular contact with Don and Louise. They are a very warm and welcoming couple!
We highly recommend this sit!

Pat and Dave are wonderfully friendly, kind and generous people. Their home is just lovely (they have updated since posting their pictures) and very comfortable,  and their garden a retreat!

Coco is a great and no trouble at all too look after. She gives you a rub or quiet meow if she'd like some food or a brushing or to be let out,  but she was never loud or needy.  She's very independent and sweet.  

We would definitely recommend this sit. Everything about it was easy and pleasant. Thank you Pat and Dave!!

We stayed at Susan and Dan's home for 9 days and had a wonderful time taking care of Cole and Eloise.Our stay was very pleasant as they have a guest room with a very comfortable bed and private three piece guest bathroom.Their home is clean and tidy, open and inviting.  

Communication was excellent! 1st was an online video call. It was great meeting Dan and Sue and their sweet pets. After being accepted we kept in touch via email and texts. 

We arrived a day early since we were coming from 🇨🇦
Sue and Dan were so sweet to take us out for dinner which gave us an opportunity to get to know each other. This is a great part of THS, meeting amazing people from other countries and of course the shared bond of our pets. We are grateful for the opportunity for a vacation and their trust in our ability to care for their home and pets. We loved hearing about all of their amazing travel adventures!

One of the best parts of our trip was spending time and bonding with their sweet sibling cats. Cole is a sweet carefree guy but it took Eloise a few days before she felt comfortable jumping up on my lap or coming in the morning to wake us up for breakfast. 

We intended to do lots of touristy stuff, but honestly the home and community were so beautiful we wanted for nothing else.
There was a timid gator in the pond out back that we could watch every morning as we had coffee and the cats had a sunbath on the secured screened porch. We adored the private backyard where we saw deer mornings and evenings as well as hearing all the critters at night when the sun went down :)

Some nights we watched movies on the large screen tv and sometimes the Cole or Eloise would visit for cuddles. 
The community is gated with a guard house so we felt extremely safe night and day. 

The people in the community are very kind and friendly when we visited the pool and the community centre. Sue and Dan kept in touch while on their vacation and we were able to provide kitty updates and photos. Aside from keeping their lovely home tidy & picking up mail looking after Cole and Eloise was a breeze and we miss them already. We really adored this sit and can't thank Dan and Sue enough.

Sophie
We had a lovely time staying at Sophie and Ollie’s house and looking after their gorgeous Labrador and 2 cats. The house is beautiful, set in lovely countryside and the animals were easy to care for and good company! The nearby town of Shrewsbury is lovely, very old worldy and definitely worth a visit! Sophie was very welcoming as well and easy to communicate with. Definitely recommend for future sitters!

Sorry for the late review! Been busy! 
Patrice is amazing. Very kind. Made us a nice gift basket and even had a sign expressing her gratitude for us! What a host! Nice quiet neighborhood and 3 min drive/10 min walk to ALDI. 15 min drive from the beach. Good spot.

Dogs are well-behaved indoors. Difficult to walk all 3 at once. Recommend walking 2 at a time. Rocko won't walk usually so that's actually not an issue. We were warned about Ziggi being a "runner". Well, we made it to the end of the sit keeping that at bay. We were packing our stuff to the vehicle and last minute communication slippage on our end (classic couple) and Ziggi sprinted for the golf course. Praise God she returned without any gator bites 😆 

All in all good sit. Sheba will require heaps of attention. Rocko does not. Ziggi warmed up and was snuggly after several days. Rocko is the only one who slept with us. The other 2 dogs barked like crazy at everything in the night with windows open --how I like to sleep and there was nothing gonna change that. They couldn't sleep in room with us. Just rocko. So that's that. 

Good sit but not exactly easy. Definitely a good location, lovable dogs, and a prime location so get your application in but be prepared for a little effort.
