Heidi
I felt totally confident in leaving Darcy and my house in Elaine’s care and I returned to a very contended dog and a perfectly clean and tidy house. Elaine arrived the day before I left so I was able to get to know her and enjoy an evening meal with her before my very early flight. We kept in contact while I was away via WhatsApp and I was happy to see photos of Darcy relaxing in her usual favourite places. It was lovely to be welcomed back home after my holiday by a very well looked after dog and it was so nice that Elaine was here to welcome me and had the lamps on, flowers in vases and a meal in the oven.  My house was clean and tidy and Darcy has enjoyed a week of lovely walks and neck scratches. I highly recommend Elaine as a completely reliable pet and house sitter and she is a lovely lady to chat to. I was so pleased that I got to know her.

Kallista
My experience pet sitting for Kallista and Boy was absolutely delightful. Kallista is incredibly welcoming and excels in communication, always answering my questions promptly and with great understanding. She also appreciated receiving updates on Boy, which made the experience even more enjoyable.

The location of the apartment is fantastic, situated near shops and metro stops, making it very convenient. The living space itself is comfortable and inviting.

The highlight of my stay was undoubtedly spending time with Boy, the sweetest and most lovable cat ever. He has a charming personality, loves cuddles, and enjoys playing with his favorite sock. Everything was perfect, and I would love to pet sit Boy for Kallista again!

Melinda
Morton won our hearts from the moment we met him. We formed a bond with him; we wanted to feel important and think that it was us and not just the kindness of this loving animal. Taking care of him became one of our favorite sit. Melinda was very attentive to us and from the moment she opened the door of her house, she trusted us, which we appreciate from the bottom of our hearts. The apartment is in perfect condition and has access to one of the best public transportation in the world, Singapore's. You can easily move around the city, although the most likely is that you will want to spend all day embracing Morton. We would definitely come back and we highly recommend it.

Lisa
Oh my Lisa.  It is difficult to emulate a person who is just so kind and caring but we knew we had to try our best.  There is an amount of work involved caring for her horses and dogs which Lisa stipulates in her introduction and if you can manage that, you are guaranteed a great experience. Individually, without exception all the animals had such fantastic personalities, some rendering me to laughing out loud, sometimes just so funny.It was also very helpful to have use of a vehicle, so thank you very much for that.  We also found Lisa exceptional at networking on our behalf with the local community to make our stay even more perfect.  Thank you for being so relaxed and flexible with the accommodation too.  We could arrive early and stay after the sit, perfect for us traveling from the UK.  Thank you for an unforgettable experience Lisa.

Emily
Emily and Joe have an incredibly beautiful, spacious home in a picturesque neighborhood. Emily was a professional host and had everything laid out in a very simplistic yet organized manner. Jenny and Franklin are incredibly friendly, they warmed up immediately. Roanoke is a great city with plenty of things to find to do.

Grace
Grace is so friendly, and I had a wonderful time house sitting. Mochi, Miles, and Miso are such sweet cats, and I enjoyed every moment with them. They have such good energy, and it was a joy to be around them every day. I highly recommend Grace's place for anyone who loves friendly and affectionate cats. I couldn't believe how much I missed those kitties already!
