I called Sai prior to the dog sit to let him know that my dog who has never had any altercations previously had an altercation with another dog and needs to be kept away from all other dogs until I get bqck. The first time he took my dog out, he let him near another dog and told me he thought my dog was nice despite me explaining the situation to him previously. He got in another altercation with that dog and I ended up kenneling him. I now just received noticed that my dog is no longer allowed in my apartment community due to the second altercation, meaning I will have to break my lease and move. I have never had any issues like this with my dog and any other dog sitters. I am at a loss for words at the repercussions situation I am in now.
Clyde is an absolute gem of a doggo. A little hard headed, but very sweet and loves to snuggle. Beautiful hiking nearby and definitely got many steps in everyday trying to keep up with the average 3-5 miles Peter takes him on daily. Very glad I got to spend time with this big loveable guy and would do it again.
We had a kovely 10 days in Swavesey looking after Gizmo. Communication with Sara was great in the lead up to and during the housesit. The house is comfortable and included everything we needed for a pleasant stay. Gizmo is really independent, but did enjoy being brushed and stroked. The kids became very fond of her. We really made the most of the opportunity to explore the local area including the amazing city of Cambridge. Swavesey is a really cute little village with a welcoming atmosphere and with excellent links via public transport into Cambridge or St Ives. For nature lovers the Fens are really close bye and we got to do a lot of bird watching. We would definitely rerurn.
This pet/house sitting experience was absolutely fantastic! Meika and Koda, are not only loving but also incredibly adorable and fun. Meika's playful habit of digging up bones and relocating them to a different spot was both amusing and endearing. It was hilarious to witness Koda patiently observing Meika's digging antics, only to swoop in and claim the freshly buried bone as if it were a well-deserved prize. Hahahaha! The house and property itself were nothing short of terrific. Our overall experience was further elevated by the combination of the wonderful dogs, the comfortable home, and the beautiful surroundings. This became especially significant when we faced a blizzard and a mass snowstorm, compelling us to stay indoors. Fortunately, Rick's snow plow allowed us the ability to venture from the ranch when necessary. Despite the winter weather conditions, we found it easy to enjoy the grounds. The dogs were our enthusiastic companions as we ventured outside, snowshoeing, Nordic skiing, and hiking around the ranch. The seamless communication with Jennifer and Rick played a crucial role in making our stay stress-free, as they promptly addressed any questions or concerns that arose. We feel incredibly grateful for the opportunity to care for these two darling dogs. The entire experience was not only enjoyable but also enriched by the warmth of the home, the charm of the dogs, and the welcoming atmosphere created by Jennifer and Rick. It truly was a memorable and rewarding pet and house-sitting adventure.
Such a great time with Ziggy and Zephyr. They were great cuddle companions & very talkative. Thankful that I was able to enjoy my daily yoga with such a gorgeous view. (Ziggy accompanied me for that too.) Very thorough instructions and communication. Would be happy to sit again in the future!
How lucky we were to be invited by Lara and Barney down to sit for their two cats Newt and Jonesy at their delightful property in St Ervan, Cornwall. A lovely, professional couple, they introduced us to their treasured pets and impressive home which is set in the heart of the Cornish countryside but with fantastic access to the 7 bays as well as tourist gems such Padstow and Newquay. The cats were delightful, Jonesy, very attentive, particularly around feeding time, Newt was someone shy and only appeared once in full view, preferring to eat when we were out of the property or in bed! The home is beautifully equipped we could prepare meals with ease in the super modern kitchen and eat alfresco in the Mediterranean-themed outdoor space. We would thoroughly recommend this sit and wouldn't hesitate to return again in the future.
We did a few day sit for Anett and Grant looking after their beautiful husky pack. Them days felt like we were in a proper dog paradise! All of them were such nice and easy dogs to care for, very friendly and full of beans. Each one of them had a completely different personality and it was fun to notice little, quirky things about them as the days went by. :) Don't think we ever had so much love and attention from so many dogs all at once, we absolutely loved our stay there. Anett, Grant and family were very nice, and welcomed us into their beautiful home with open arms. We will come back in a heartbeat to see the huskies again. xx
