Wendy was as always a great house sitter. We came home to a very happy cat and tidy house. If Wendy needed to know anything she always tried to contact us. Would highly recommend Wendy.
Just weeks before we planned to travel out of Chile, our city erupted in protests - some of them violent. I also experienced a death in the family and had to change our plans at the last minute, cancelling part of our vacation. I worried that all this might be too much stress for Kaylene and Ned, but not only did they stick with their commitment to housesit, they did so with kindness, flexibility, patience, and a sense of adventure. Kaylene sent photos and updates most days, which was lovely, and she was very responsive when I asked for a screenshot of our bills. When we got home, our apartment was immaculate and our cat, Ella, was happy and healthy. Her coat was way smoother than usual, suggesting she had been brushed regularly in our absence. I'm sure she was sorry to see us come home! I would happily welcome Kaylene and Ned for another housesit any time!
