I'm almost afraid to write this review because everyone will want Rigel to sit for them and she'll become too busy for us. LOL

Rigel was the most incredible house and pet sitter. She took care of our little dog and cat like they were her own and took care of our house perfectly, which was spotless when we got home. On top of all that, she took care of all of our plants as well.

We needed a pretty long-term sit and Rigel took to it with ease. She sent us regular updates on our pets, let us know when there were little issues and was ready and eager to help out in any way that she could if we needed it. Our little doggie had some digestive problems while we were gone and Rigel took care of it in no time. She sent us photos, videos, and gave great advice about what to do with a sick plant.

I would love to have Rigel come back and be our sitter again if we need to travel. She is number one in our book.

It was lovely to stay at Caryl’s with the pups and her sweet senior kitty for a month. The house is cozy and comfy and in a nice neighborhood with easy access to the best of Seattle. The pets are ADORABLE, such great personalities and so easy to care for. I miss them already! Despite there being a lot of animals, it was very low maintenance and easy for me to focus on work and visiting with friends. I recommend this sit 100% and hope I have a chance to visit again!

Our experience in Barnes was very good. First Shona and Ronnie are very hospitality, we have our room ready for us, the lived food in the fridge and and spectacularly kitchen to use when we want.

Dottie and Alfie were so sweet pets, we were taking Dottie for walks around, you have a lot of green spaces to take, she is a very good girl. Alfie, I think is the best cat ever, only came to say hello and to received love.

Was a very good experience, living a different London and enjoying the good wether

Katie
Poochie was a pleasure to look after. Very friendly and stress-free. Always enjoys her walks and if she’s scampering across the grass, always comes back whenever you call her. Katie’s home was lovely. Full of light and beautifully decorated. No complaints at all. I’d definitely come back.

We had a lovely sit, with George, Henry and Daisy ,  Minky and GC, and various other friendly rabbits, ducks and chickens! Claire and Steve were very welcoming and generous with a beautiful meal on arrival, and very detailed instructions.  It is a lovely area and beautiful house and was a great sit! Thankyou!

I absolutely loved petsitting Bonnie. Tomas and Michelle were very organised and sent me on helpful information and videos before hand. Their house is absolutely gorgeous and very modern. Bonnie was so adorable, friendly and very well behaved! She loved playing fetch and going for walks in the nearby park.  She's also very affectionate and enjoy cuddles in the evening. She was a pleasure to look after and I will miss her a lot! I would highly recommend pet-sitting Tomas and would be more then happy to look after Bonnie again ❤️

Stephanie and Michel were great hosts just as YaYa and ZZ were great furry companions! Communication with Stephanie was great and everything that was relayed to us in terms of YaYa’s and ZZ’s behaviors, quirks, and actions was demonstrated exactly. Be aware that ZZ is still a puppy and energetic, but also very smart and sneaky (she stole my shoes a few times 🙃) As a pup, she also likes to nibble on you while playing but doesn’t bite (careful with your ankles). Yaya is more relaxed and obedient which helps balance both energies. Overall they were awesome and sweet babies. They love to cuddle on the couch with you and they also love to play together and tire each other out. We took them on daily walks as it not only tires them out mentally but also a great opportunity to take advantage of the scenic and calm neighborhood with rolling hills. We enjoyed this very much! We miss them already and hope to be back in Durham soon! ♥️
