Rob and Sue were a great choice! They were very organized and communicative before the house sit. We chatted on the phone once and I knew we were going to be able to confidently leave them in charge of our house and cat. Our house was in perfect order (and then some!!) when we returned home. I would have them back absolutely any time!
Cory and Christina are a wonderful couple who we'd love to have Sit for us again anytime. They took fantastic care of the house and cats. Right after arrival, they were sending pics/vids of the cats clearly relaxed and lounging or playing with them--the cats took to them quickly and they are clearly animal lovers and experts. We really appreciated the occasional texts that let us know the kitties were safe and happy hanging out with their new friends. Communication and coordination was always quick and reliable. They were proactive and willing to visit and familiarize before we left, and offered to stay for our return so we could hear how things went and talk about future stays. They are clearly animal and people lovers, as well as interesting world travelers. In the short time we had to chat, we got the impression that they are a very thoughtful, caring, socially minded couple. We're so glad to have met them and that they are interested in coming back in the future.
