This is a harder review to leave, but I just want to be upfront about my experience. Devon is really nice and pleasant to speak to, but I had to pester Devon a lot to get information about how the animals/house were doing. This was after a couple periods of unresponsiveness. (I told her I prefer more updates, but I always had to ask.) Toward the end of her stay, though, she was super communicative and inquisitive about making sure she did her part to tidy up (asked about linens/towels). Devon kept our house really clean, but there were signs that she wasn't the only guest in our house, which we hadn't discussed. She said it was just her brother coming to get her on the last day, which is fine, but my instincts tell me that this may not have been the only occurrence (we have neighbors). There was fur all over the couch, which gave away that either she may have been away from the dogs a fair amount, or she just didn't apply/read about the "no dogs on the couch" rule. There was also a light wet mark on the couch. Not a huge deal, but it just felt and looked off from our normal day to day. Lastly, she asked for the code to our gate 3 times when I had already given her that information via text. I even responded to her second text giving her the code again, and a third time in capital letters. She found it on her own at the end, but it was already laid out for her, so it just felt like there was a lack of care/lack of attention to detail. I will say she communicated about my cat's litter box and his food and offered to clean it. She was only here for 2 days, so it can be a bit of a whirlwind to care for 4 animals, so I get that. I just think it wasn't quite the right fit. I still appreciate her help, and over all, the experience wasn't bad. Just not ideal.
I've just finished a wonderful sit with Allie-cat at Jess and Anton's. They made everything so easy for me - their home is lovely in a beautiful spot in the hilly hinterland and I felt very safe and comfortable there. Allie-cat was the best companion - I was sad to leave her. Jess kept in touch regularly in case I had any questions and I can recommend house-sitting for them and Allie without any hesitation. A great way to spend some time!
We absolutely loved our stay in Santa Fe with Fili. She is the sweetest most love able pup. Thanks to Sarah for being so gracious to share her beautiful space and for letting me bring my fur baby along. Love light and gratitude!
Percy and Oprah were so fun to be around! 💚 They both loved to play with their toys, chase the laser and watch outside. Oprah is so sweet, more shy & to herself. She liked to do her own thing and play. Percy is a huge cuddler, very vocal and sweet. Feeding them was simple and they had an automatic water bowl. The house was near lots of stores and restaurants, so it was really convenient! The neighborhood was quiet and perfect for a relaxing little getaway. I would highly recommend this sit!! :)
