It’s one thing to ask a sitter to watch your home and care for your pets knowing they can just text or call you if they have questions or run into an emergency. It’s another to ask a sitter to do that when you are out of contact 90% of the time! Amanda was the perfect zeewoi to put my mind at ease knowing that both my husband and I would be unreachable most of our time away. She is self-sufficient, intelligent, organized, astute and observant, and after our initial phone chat and intro when she arrived, I felt 100% confident she could handle any situation that might arise. Amanda took great care of our 3 cats and was also fantastic with the 3 foster kittens we are currently caring for in my office. While I had asked her up front if she felt comfortable with the additional care responsibilities, I still felt bad adding more to her plate as the kittens do require more time/attention than our 3 adult cats. Fortunately, she was willing to take on the task and I’m so appreciative of that. She was communicative leading up to the stay, asked thoughtful questions regarding the home, cats, plants, etc, and sent cat and kitten updates even though we were off the grid much of the time. She left the house and my car immaculate. I wholeheartedly recommend Amanda for house-sitting & pet-sitting opportunities. She is a perfect house-guest and a delightful human! We would love to host her again in the future, whether she is sitting or not!

Veena
Great hosts, great pets, and a great home.

We couldn't recommend this sit more.

From the first moment, the home was as warm and welcoming as Veena was, offering great conversation and helping outline the (few) tasks.

The house was lovely and clean and kept ready for us which made it very easy to settle in. Every effort had been made to give us the smallest workload during our stay, which was a kind and appreciated gesture.

Simba and Fluffy were such a dream, even if Simba was a little shy/unhappy about the change.

It didn't take long at all for Fluffy to get comfortable around us, presenting her majesty for us to admire and stroke.

Even Simba began to open up after 2-3 days so we did get more glimpses of his very pretty, handsome face but I'm sure any sits spanning a week or more would have a lot more face time.

They're both very pretty and absolutely passive so we never felt any looming scratches even from (the initially irate) Simba.

In terms of the home - Wow. If you like views, you're going to be very, very happy. It is a very centrally located apartment with all the mod-cons and a comfortable dining area, TV etc. The pictures are nice but they don't do the in-home experience any justice. It is fantastic.

The kitchen was even stocked well for us and Veena even made an early morning trip to get fresh staple groceries. What a star!

We hope we'll have the pleasure of sitting for Veena and the fluffy duo in the future but if we don't, maybe you'll have the very rare chance of nabbing this top-tier sit.

Much love from us both,

Josh & Ami

Carola
Such an enjoyable sit!  Logi is very chill and cozy at home, well behaved on the lead, and super fun off the lead.  We had so many fetch sessions in the beautiful trails around Chamonix - he loves his sticks! - and even some light jogs.  Definitely not the typical energy level of a 13 year old.  
The flat is so well located, with an amazing and inspiring view and so tastefully decorated.  
It was certainly a pleasure to get to know Carola and Jonas.  Very relaxed and trusting, and happy to get the occasional update.  
Everything was simply lovely!

What a beautiful home and grounds! It really is a park like setting. Bub took a little while to warm up to me as cats can be indifferent, but I won him over. I would recommend this sit and give it an A+.

I arrived at Paul and Libby's residence the evening prior to the pet sitting engagement. They, along with an enthusiastic Nellie, with whom I established an immediate connection, warmly welcomed me. During the course of the evening, Libby provided me with a comprehensive overview of Nellie's preferred walking routes, as well as various aspects of her home and surroundings. This enabled me to gain a firsthand understanding of Nellie's daily routine. The accommodations provided for me were exceptionally comfortable, reflecting the overall ambiance of the entire household. Nellie consistently demonstrated impeccable behavior, both on and off the leash. An excellent companion during car journeys, she particularly enjoys cuddling as soon as one settles down. Undoubtedly, her favorite activity is chasing her ball, which she would happily engage in throug all day if permitted. Nellie possesses a playful and friendly demeanor, readily displaying affection and providing excellent companionship. I will undoubtedly miss her presence. I experienced a minor incident involving an overflowing shower, which Libby handled with utmost understanding and professionalism.
