I really enjoyed my sit for Nicolette & family. She went out of her way to accommodate me & prepare me to take care of Jock and their home while they were away. Jock is an easy going, well trained & lovable dog. I never had to say “sit” twice. He has his routines & will let you know what is next on his agenda, especially if a treat is in store. We had lovely walks exploring the friendly neighbourhood and Nicolette has friends who are just steps away if information or backup is needed. Nicolette’s home is warm & comfortable, and in a lovely area for shops & cafes. Access to the subway etc is just minutes away. I really felt comfortable & relaxed with Jock, who knows how to tug at your heartstrings, (he is a big snuggler) and would be very happy to sit with him again! Bindy
Cindy was simply the best host possible :) She made me feel comfortable since we first spoke at the phone and she provided all the info I needed even while she was travelling. The apartment is high quality and in a great location, with everything you might need during your stay. Last but not least, Brio was the cutest dog. He is very easy to look after, always very chilled and friendly from the beginning. I am really thankful for the time I spent in NYC at Cindy's apartment with Brio and I would genuinely recommend to any other dog sitter on this platform!
I had such an absolutely amazing time with Como & Amalfi - they are the sweetest pets in the world! Thank you so so much Emily and Adrien for being so wonderful, for being so kind and helpful, and for letting me stay in your beautiful home <3
My stay in Longmont with Bella was very warm and accommodating. Bella will let you know when she wants food and will warm up to you quickly. Diane and her partner will keep you up to date and their home was spacious and clean. I would recommend anyone come stay with Bella!
Karens is a wonderfulderful host, her house is clean & comfortable and the dogs are adorable and so easy! The gated community she lives in is like being at a resort with so much to do including fitness classes. There are several bikes to use to ride to Anna Maroa Island for a fun day at the beach or shopping. Great housesit with lovely people all around!
Kitties, kitties, and if you love kitties this is the sit for you! Three friendly inside kitties, and 2 outside that would like to be friendly - maybe - on their terms. Lovely guest suite, peaceful lanai by unheated pool, overlooking a pond with lots of wild birds, very nice setting and a good place to read and relax! The neighborhood was largely quiet, and there are no houses across the street. Sidewalks make the area very walkable. Jennifer was a good communicator throughout, and left helpful instructions with notes everywhere necessary. Although we did not meet in person, the changeover was smooth and without problems. Grocery store is not far, and I did stay an extra day which worked for their return and my next pet/house sit. The house was fully decorated with all kinds of clever Christmas items, and has plenty of space. This sit is highly recommended!
