I can't say enough good things about Angela! She was clear and quick with communications, she took immaculate care of our home, she gave lots of TLC to our two kitties (and sent us lots of great pictures), she was flexible, and she was thoughtful and considerate. She sat with her wonderful boyfriend, who was also delightful and helpful. Also, the daughter of a close friend was visiting Seattle unexpectedly and needed a place to stay - Angela generously hosted her (which she was under no obligation to do). And, to our surprise, she even left us a nice card and gifts of French pastries and wine as a parting "thank you"! I would highly recommend Angela (and her boyfriend) as a house/pet sitter, and hope we'll be lucky enough to have her/them again.

Kacie
We absolutely loved our stay at Kacie & Caleb‘s house.  We fell deeply in love with Poppy and Hank.  Poppy is a very happy, friendly, fun, loving big old thing with the cutest face and the cutest demeanor. Poppy loves people, loves food, loves to play tug of war, loves to go for walks.  Poppy is 100% positive about life in general.  Hank is a cuddle bug. He loves the couch, loves his people, loves getting pets and enjoys walking in his harness, but it is best when the streets are quiet with less dogs and people.  that’s no problem because Kacie & Caleb‘s neighborhood is beautiful to walk in at night. It’s very well lit almost every house has their porch light on and there are gorgeous street lamps. You can see really well and in fact, the neighborhood is full of beautiful, renovated, incredibly large houses most of which are Victorian. It was absolutely beautiful, we loved walking there. 

George and Cheeto are a breeze to care for. They mostly keep to themselves, but are very friendly when you see them and approach them.  They enjoy getting pets and attention. They just like their chill time away from the dogs.

The house has a fabulous location in the city. Very close to the convention center. We went to a concert in a wonderful old theater downtown, which was only a mile away. They’re great restaurants all around.  This is also a very nice area if you’re a bike rider because throughout most of the city, we saw very well laid out dedicated bike lanes that made it safe and easy.  We had a really lovely time here and Kacie & Caleb could not have been more generous or kind.  We always got a quick response in communication on our daily updates.  You can tell they are lovely, lovely people because their animals have the sweetest dispositions. We hope to come back another time.  We miss Poppy and Hank very much.  

Thank you so much for this wonderful opportunity Kacie & Caleb. We really appreciated it!

Gautam
I loved sitting for Dana & Gautam! I met Dana the evening before she left and we went through everything for the cats and the apartment and even got some recommendations for Hamburg too :) the cats were super cute - Noodle is a very affectionate & cuddly kitten and he loooved playing especially with the bright yellow toy, Nimbu took a couple days to warm up but then loved to sit next to me on the sofa and play with the blue string (or with Noodle!). The apartment is in a safe area with some cool neighbourhoods around and super easy to get into the centre of town - 15 mins on the bus! Dana offered use of their bikes and although I didn't use them I would definitely recommend saying yes as there are safe cycle lanes everywhere! The apartment is modern and light with a great kitchen area and has lovely balconies to enjoy. I'll miss the cats & would definitely sit again - highly recommend! :)

Donna
Donna’s very comfortable ground floor apartment is in an older but extremely well maintained condo complex located less than a mile from the cute downtown area of Gresham.  Her home had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable and pleasant including her sweet cat Sheba who was happy to have company.   We would happily house sit for Donna’s home and Sheba again.

Gina
I pet sitted  for Gina and Richard’s 3 small dogs.  It was a fun experience, their dogs are well behaved and very easy to take care of.  Gina and Richard are wonderful people and would for sure pet sit for them again.  Their farm house is cool and cozy in a small community outside of Raleigh, N.C., which is full of fun things to do.

Larissa and Eric are great communicators and left well written instructions. The place is nice and super clean. But My favorite part about the stay was the 2 boys that are so fun and make sure you have company when you need it. Ty is the best dog-gentleman I’ve met and so well trained on the recall. Flynn is a great guy as well and takes responsibility of being a quite protector of the house. I’d stay there again in the future.
