This was my first time having a stranger stay at my place, so this was a big deal for me. I had a good feeling about Kyle from the start and was excited about the idea of helping a fellow Bostonian see the unparalleled city of Austin. Like me, he works from home in the healthcare industry. I had the privilege of meeting Kyle on the first day of the sit. I found him to be friendly, funny, and affable. As this was my first time having a sitter, I texted Kyle details of the apartment and pet care as I thought of them. I appreciated him baring with me through this as I am working to now compile a user-friendly guide. Kyle was sure to communicate frequently. He updated me often about his arrival and departure and also sent pictures of himself with Gypsy during the stay. He also gave me a heads up about having someone over. The only questions he had were about the laundry, which evidently was the one thing I didn't go over. He was self-sufficient and attentive to the fine details of the apartment and the care of my cat. Kyle relieved the stress of stress of separation anxiety my cat goes through when left alone, therefore relieving me of inevitable guilt. My cat seemed to be at ease when I returned home. I could tell she missed me, but she did not seem stressed whatsoever! As Kyle promised, the apartment was not only just as clean as I left it, but cleaner. I have a bad habit of stuffing my recycling underneath the sink and procrastinating the removal. I was pleasantly surprised to find Kyle emptied the whole thing. In this he must have discovered I'm a beer drinker because he also left me a 6 pack! Not only this, but he left a bunch of food, which is great because I'll eat anything you leave in my apartment. Would absolutely have Kyle again. Highly recommend him to give you and your pets ease when traveling.

Julie
I had the best time with Sam! He’s the sweetest kitty, shy at first then attached at the hip and so loving and cuddly. Julie’s home is lovely, very comfortable and convenient to everything (airport, east Bay, plenty of SF sights). Julie was also so kind & communicative the whole time, and made the whole process super easy. All in all, a wonderful experience!

Debbie
Pierre was a lively ball of joy and was very easy to care for. He enjoyed walks around the village and even went all the way to Topsham with us! Debbie was a fantastic host and made the sit very comfortable. Would happily look after P again :)

Laura
Very convenient to Forsyth Park, Kroger, Dollar Tree, and other spots. Precious 4-legged babe who loves to snuggle. Laura gave clear instructions & suggestions. Lovely time in Savannah (where I lived for 9 years, some time ago).

I instantly bonded with Kay, a wonderful host, and Ginger, a sweet gentle big girl! There are also a host of visiting birds, and a couple of social iguanas who come out. The house is located in a small community with friendly dog-loving neighbors. There's a park within the complex which Ginger enjoyed, along with daily massages. This was an easy enjoyable sit, and I'd be happy to return.

Heather was super speedy with communications and sent a video guide which was great and so helpful. It made me feel really welcome, comfortable and at ease with knowing where things were and how to care for Raphael. He was so easy to look after and a delight, he welcomed me with an inquisitive look and and an instant purr when fussed 😻 he loves attention and his favourite place was looking out of an open window. It’s a lovely place with a nice green view. Thank you Heather and Raphael 🐾
