Fiona
We loved our sit for Fiona and Tony, their home is gorgeous and welcoming and we were treated to a delicious dinner on our first night with them. They are generous, accommodating hosts and were lovely to communicate with during the sit.
Their three dogs are sweet and funny and we adored them all. Three sounds like a lot of work but it actually wasn't. They have their morning and evening routines and are really easy dogs to care for. We enjoyed sitting by the fire with them in the evenings, listening to them snore and they are an absolute dream to walk - they were obedient, responsive and we were able to walk them off the lead all the time. 
All up a lovely sit in beautiful country surrounds with three adorable, cuddly dogs. We highly recommend this sit.
Thanks Guys.

Roma
Felt very welcomed into Roma and Johns’s lovely home. Loved spending time in the cosy kitchen 😊 Nicely located -close to town, even closer to gorgeous countryside. 
Evie popped in and out and became more used to us by the end of the sit. She was easy to care for and sweet. 
Looking forward to returning in February! X

Mary Beth
Mary Beth was wonderful. Her communications were timely and very pleasant. The instructions for the care of Riley were clear. She has a lovely home that is convenient to anything I needed. 

Riley is a sweet girl but she did have some behavioral problems that made the sit less than excellent, which I will detail below.

Riley sleeps in the bed with whomever is sitting for her. Mary Beth told me this, so it was expected and something I was ok with. Three of the four nights I was there she woke me between 1:30 and 4:00, presumably to go out. Upon letting her out it was difficult get her back in, as she desired to stay outside and bark. Once going back to bed she didn’t want to settle down, whining at the edge of the bed. All this resulted in about 1 - 1.5 hours of lost sleep. Then there are intermittent sessions of somewhat loud licking or scratching that would further disturb my sleep. The final night I was there was better in that she didn’t wake me to go out, but there were still the lick/scratch sessions.

I had two instances where Riley grabbed toilet paper rolls and shredded them, leaving a mess for me to pick up. Mary Beth confirmed that this is unusual behavior for Riley.

Next, (and this is not really a negative, just some advice for the next sitter) is walking Riley. Riley may not want to return home when you’re ready to go back, so she will just stop. Many dogs do this, so no big deal. I figured out, and Mary Beth later confirmed this, that a gentle pat on the rear will get her walking again. On the first walk I took her on she almost slipped out of the collar, so I would recommend putting her in the harness instead. She doesn’t like the harness and will try to hide under the table so you may have to be a bit tricky to get her in it, but once she’s in it, she’s fine. 

Mary Beth speculated that maybe I didn’t tire Riley out enough with our walks, leading to her behavior, and perhaps that is so. 

We must also keep in mind that dogs have feelings much like we do. I fully acknowledge that she was separated from her owner and was likely distressed about that. And that no matter how kind or patient I was with her I was still a stranger and not her owner, so that causes distress as well, I’m sure. Certainly, Riley was not doing this out of malice. Again, she’s a very sweet dog and we lots of good play and petting sessions.

Finally, a little advice for future housesitters that may want to visit Philadelphia (and this has absolutely nothing to do with Mary Beth or Riley, it’s just travel advice). I would not recommend trying to drive into Philadelphia as traffic and parking are not pleasant. There is a train station about a 12 minute drive away from the house called Conshohocken. From there you can get into Philadelphia in about 45 minutes or so. However, be advised that you cannot purchase the fare card at that station as they have no customer service or kiosks there. You will have to plan ahead and go to the Norristown station or another station where they have customer service and kiosks. You can find further information about this  by looking up the SEPTA website.  

Overall, yes, I would recommend this sit. I appreciate the opportunity to sit for Mary Beth and Riley.

Margaret
Honestly I loved this sit! 

Margaret was super easy to communicate with from the get go. On my arrival the house was clean, warm and full of positive energy. I felt right at home straight away. She's put so much thought and love into her beautiful and healthy home. 

Gus was an absolute pleasure to take care of, he brought me on short walks around the neighborhood. He has his own doggy door throughout the day. He's super chill and just wants to chill on the couch with you most of the time. He does take some extra supplements with his food that was never a task more an honor to keep this guy as fit and healthy as he is for a 14yr Golden. Go Gus! 

If you have the chance to sit Gus you should definitely snap it up. You won't be disappointed. 

Don't forget to try Margaret's epic massage chair! Oh and don't lose the robot hoover like I did many times, I spent more time looking for that thing than taking care of Gus! 

Thanks again🙏🏽

Ruth
A wonderful, comfortable, well-appointed house - especially if you are a music lover.
Bonnie was a complete pleasure. Very friendly, affectionate, and low maintenance.
The care instructions were extremely clear and easy to follow. The location of the property was perfect with easy walking access to St Albans town and frequent trains to London from St Albans City station. Ruth was great to communicate with, and we'd love to stay again if they ever need another sitter.
