Emma took care of our pets and home this past week. She was very easy to work with and extremely flexible and accomodating with timing on both ends. Our second flight home was delayed and she stayed until she knew we were on our way.
Emma was a great communicator and very responsive.  She sent us daily updates and photos and she took excellent care of our dog and bird. We came home to a clean home and thriving plants (keeping our hanging plants on the deck alive much less thriving is not easy in the summer!). I would not hesitate to have Emma back to housesit for us any time and would highly recommend her to others.

I feel so lucky to have been the first sitter at this lovely home! We ended up watching Kaya & Watson. They were an adorable pair — Kaya always standing by to watch the boisterous youngsters antics.  The home is in a wonderful and very central location. Natural wonder abounds & we were never at a loss for things to do. Jim’s communication was exceptional, leaving an incredibly throughout welcome guide. We felt totally at easy and couldn’t have enjoyed our time at their home more!

Cathy
Cathy and Nigel are a wonderful couple who made me feel so welcome in their home.
Charlie is a beautiful dog whose company I thoroughly enjoyed. He is such a sweetie and after our walks he was quite happy to lounge around the house and garden.
Their home is a stunning converted barn with views of the cumbria fells to die for. It is so quiet and peaceful with just the odd walkers passing to join the footpath. 
It would be a pleasure to sit for them again.

I had a lovely time taking care of Astra and housesitting for Claire. Astra is so sweet, affectionate and chatty; looking after her was a lot of fun! Claire was very welcoming and friendly and really made an effort to meet up with me beforehand and show me round her home. Claire's apartment is lovely and I would happily sit for her again and recommend her to other sitters.

We had a wonderful stay with Woody, Loli and Rodrigo in March! 

Loli and Rodrigo are experienced hosts, they organized a walk with Woody prior to our stay so we can get to know each other; prepared their place for our stay, and really did anything and everything to make us feel welcome and comfortable. Woody's a great dog, very affectionate, spending as much time as possible by our side. His happiest moments were sitting on the couch all together, between Alex and me; "a Velcro dog", as Loli calls him :) Our happiest moments were snuggling Woody after a long walk, or falling asleep on the bed all together (though, Woody would go to his dog bed after an hour or so). 

I think the best companions for Woody would be sitters who can spend lots of time with him (for example, someone who works from home, or have flexible schedule with few commitments outside of the house), and somebody who enjoys walks and can adjust to Woody's walking pace (iterating between charging ahead full speed and stopping for a full minute to smell the flowers - literally!).

We had an absolutely amazing experience, would 100% come back again in the future, and would recommend Woody, Loli and Rodrigo as wonderful people (and dogs) to meet! We LOVED this stay and time flew too fast!

Such a beautiful stay and delightful moments spent in the Liz, Brian and Tush’s appartement. It’s a kind couple, very easy-going and with a great communication. I had a warm welcome and all the explanations needed to spend a good time in their place. Everything was clean, perfect my remote work and the neighborhood is really nice, with small coffee shops and local places. 
Also Tush is just the most adorable dog ever, always happy for a walk! Guillaume and I are grateful and hope to come back soon! :) thank YOU

Housesitting at Laura and Wendy’s was very comfortable; clean & inviting in their creating an artistic vibe. 

Laura was very distinct in giving exact instructions for the dog’s routine, with confidence I would roll with their daily habits. It didn’t take long before the dogs and I bonded into a natural rhythm. 

Alan and Obie are simply adorable and well-behaved. They take command well requiring so little in seeing their tails wag in complete hospitality & confidence. They looked forward to bunking with me after the first night that officially made me a welcomed part of the pack :)

The walkability & safe neighborhood reflects an eclectic & unique side of community & cohesiveness aside from the Las Vegas strip. 

Thank you Laura & Wendy!
