[Sarah’s husband Rick shares this account with her; and he was the one to stay at our house, with their college-aged son.] Rick was a wonderful housesitter! Great communication leading up to and during the stay, and we returned to find the house and animals better than we left them. I was also deeply grateful that Rick rolled with the punches when record rains left our guest bedroom uninhabitable—he was flexible on sleeping arrangements, and mopped up the water seeping into the guest bedroom several times a day, which was not something we expected to be part of the sitter’s responsibility!! All in all Rick was a pleasure to host and we’d love to have him back someday.
