I am swimming in a reservoir of gratitude following the second sit with Melissa, Justin, River and Cash. This time I was away for a full week and my trip was more peaceful and joyful in knowing my dog and home were being cared for by this family of truly incredible humans. Edie suffered trauma before I rescued her, so she has a lot of fear when it comes to anyone, particularly men. The photos Melissa shared of Edie amplified that she was calm and happy while I was away, even when she was hanging out with Justin and River. Edie slept in bed with Melissa, Justin, and their baby and I’m told she almost had a maternal energy when it came to being with Cash. The world needs more love and kindness these days, even when it is simply micro-dosing those emotions and this family radiates them like the sun radiates sunshine on a bright day. When Desmond Tutu said, “My humanity is bound up in yours, for we can only be human together.” He meant that the potential of human beings working collectively to achieve goals is infinitely greater than the potential of any individual. While house/pet sitting may sound like a simple task, it really does give us the opportunity to connect and help one another. Melissa, Justin, River and Cash helped me by caring for my home/pet while ensuring I experienced peace of mind while I was away. I helped them by giving them a unique experience to stay in a place that felt like a sanctuary to them and offered the opportunity for a unique adventure.

I love staying at Gary and Judy's house with their kitty Willow and their fish. They have a lovely home which is always very clean and organized when I get there. They provide a notebook with all the information needed to manage their home and care for Willow and their fish, as well as additional info relevant to the particular sit including their itinerary. They communicate with me regularly throughout their trips.

Speaking of Willow, she is such an adorable kitty, and very easy to take care of. She is pretty independent and low maintenance but also enjoys having cuddles and curling up with me during quite moments. I enjoy spending time with her and am always happy to sit with her whenever Gary and Judy need me to. They are fantastic to sit for, just wonderful people.

Let’s start with the three most important things  - Lawrence, Aggy and Tiggy! Three of the nicest floofs you could ever wish to meet - we could so easily have dognapped them! Felt tearful saying goodbye 😓 Colin and Annie were just lovely and we now consider them as friends.  We also caught three of the best weeks weather so we’re very happy about that! Communication was great throughout the process and we sent regular pics of the pooches having fun! I know that reassured Annie and Colin that their lovely dogs were being loved and cared for. The house was so comfortable and private, the neighbours were friendly too and of course South Devon has so much to offer by way of lovely beaches and places of interest. Just be prepared to drive at 20 mph most of the time - helps you chill out!  It’s a big thanks to Annie and Colin for being great hosts and massive hugs to our little Devon furry friends - sending ❤️❤️
