Stephanie
Staying in a smart home was a new experience for me, but I quickly found it was comfortable and beautiful. The house is located half a block from the Bosque trail, and that was wonderful. Einstein is a treasure..quite a personality and a funny, well-behaved, playful presence.  Stephanie and Ed are very accommodating, communicative and lovely people.  A pleasure to stay at their house.

Robert & Nadia are exceptional hosts and nothing was too much trouble at all. They took the time to show us around Rugby town, which included treating us to lunch at a dog friendly venue before they headed off. Their communication leading up to the sit was excellent and everything was covered with detailed information left for us. They also arranged for a family friend to take Ryiledh whilst we had two pre-arranged family catch-ups, as Ryiledh cannot be left any longer than an hour alone or he frets.

As for Ryiledh, he is adorable and just wants to be close to you throughout the day. He is very food orientated and his internal time clock is quick to let you know when it’s meal time. He loved his walks and walks very well on lead. 

The house and garden is beautiful with public transport and local shops within an easy walk. There are many nice walking trails not far from the house and the town centre is approximately an hours walk away. We will miss Ryiledh and the walks in the local area.

Kaja
Kaja and Satan are the BEST!

Kaja's warm, grounded energy spoke to me from the first messages we exchanged, and when I stepped into her colorful, cozy apartment after a long train ride, I felt at home immediately. We had a delicious supper and then had time for orientation. 

Satan warmed up to me quickly, and I absolutely adored sitting with him for hours and having him in bed with me. He would run to greet me when I arrived after being out for a bit, and our morning routine of food, treats, and then brushing/inhaler was so sweet and fun.

Kaja's space is delightful and colorful, and I had fun trying out her hula hoop! 

Kaja and I kept in touch, and I appreciated her sharing a bit about her trip as I shared updates about Satan and my activities.

I would return to hang with Satan and Kaja in a heartbeat! Thank you!

I had a great experience taking care of Macha and Reza on Julia’s lovely property. This sit did require a little more commitment but it was worth it for me. Julia is incredibly thoughtful and she provided very detailed instructions that came in very handy during my stay. Julia was also kind enough to allow me to come and stay with her the day before to get acquainted with the dogs and her property. She also took me out for a lovely dinner when she came back and offered me to stay the night before my next sit started. Macha and Reza are very independent dogs and it took them a day or two to accept me. They were super chill and friendly once they realized I could give them their favorite snacks. My room was super clean and comfortable and I had access to the entire house. The views from the house are wonderful and I felt very safe staying there alone. I will come visit Julia and the ladies if I ever get the chance again. Thank you Julia!
