This was our very first time using the service and we were absolutely blown away by Dian's approach from start to finish. Being a highly-rated and experienced cat-sitter, Dian reached out to us in less than a day and make the process much easier for us. Recognizing that we were new to the world of cat-sitting, she guided us through everything and even arrived early to help us out. We returned to find two happy cats, a spotlessly clean apartment stocked with fresh groceries and meals ahead of our arrival. Dian even put her own plans on standby to stay longer just in case we got delayed in returning home. She went above and beyond our expectations and we were absolutely delighted to hear that she enjoyed her time cat-sitting for us. Dian is a genuine cat lover. The feeling is mutual -the cats loved her instantly and she dedicated her time to lavishing attention on them. She found inventive ways to get both cats to participate in play even though one of the cats overshadowed his shy brother and wanted all of the attention. It was very reassuring to know the cats were in such good hands and she did everything possible to make them feel relaxed. Dian is very thoughtful and proactive always anticipating future needs. She selflessly shares her experience and expertise when it comes to cats, she observes each cat and knows how to keep them stimulated. Personally we learned so much from her about the best types of toys and games to use to keep each cat entertained and she sent us photos and videos regularly so we could see what our cats were doing in our absence. Clearly we missed the cats more than they missed us and that in itself is a testament to Dian's great way with cats. She prioritized the happiness and well-being of the cats even above her own plans and chose to maximize her time with them. Dian gave us a great recommendation for a lovely hiking route in our area, left us some thoughtful notes about other things the cats would enjoy and even left us a little gift to thank us for trusting her to look after our cats and our home. It goes without saying that Dian is 100% welcome to come back to us and we would wholeheartedly recommend her as the cat-sitter of choice.

Kelly
I really enjoyed my stay with Penny and Gigi!Both animals were incredibly sweet and chill, mostly napping throughout the day. I looked forward to walking Penny in the neighborhood. She’s great on a leash and never pulled. Gigi came for all the pets and cuddles once she realized I was sticking around for a bit. The home was clean and in a convenient neighborhood near grocery stores, restaurants, and entertainment. Kelly and Greg met with me before they left and they were incredibly kind and easy-going. I felt comfortable communicating with them. I highly recommend staying here if you prefer a peaceful home and easy routine! Hope to come back :)

Hannah
Hannah’s place was fabulous. Once she warmed up to us, Jessie loved to alternate between playing & lap time. The house was very comfortable & easy to maintain & Jessie was also very low maintenance. The location is so clean and new with lots of parks and a great shopping centre close by. Even though the family were on the other side of the world communication with Hannah was regular & easy. We would highly recommend this house sit to other cat lovers.

What a wonderful sit. 
Susan and Paul are the most charming couple, really responsive and friendly. They gave us a full tour of the house and left very clear written instructions about Roxy and Puzzle and the house. The house was very clean and comfortable and we especially loved the grounds such a beautiful place to walk Roxy and Puzzle. 
Roxy and Puzzle are a absolute pleasure to look after. Absolutely adorable, entertaining and well behaved. They are full of life and so playful.... then fast asleep. Walking them was a pleasure and both had really good recall.  
We really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this sit. We can’t wait to come again

Lizzy
I had a lovely week staying at Lizzy's cosy home and taking care of sweet Mikki -the ideal workcation by the sea! Mikki is a really affectionate, very well trained dog -I miss her already! Mikki has some specific needs, and Lizzy is clear with explaining these beforehand and providing everything required e.g. Mikki's cooked food, medication for emergencies. Mikki needs three short walks a day (there are plenty of lovely places nearby to walk her, including a dog friendly beach 5 minutes away!) and she is also very happy to accompany you to cafes and will even wait patiently on the beach for you while you swim. As she can't be left alone for more than about an hour, this sit may be best suited for someone who is a remote worker. However Lizzy also provided the contacts for her boyfriend and a friend who live nearby, who could've watched Mikki if I needed to go out without her for a few hours, which was really helpful and thoughtful of her to arrange as a potential backup if needed. Lizzy was also easy to communicate with when I had some queries during my sit. I would gladly return and take care of Mikki again in the future, and would recommend this sit to other dog lovers.

Such an amazing stay!!! We miss everything about it already. Noodle is the sweetest and best behaved dog I ever met, I miss our daily walks a lot. Also the walk route around the lake nearby is stunning. In general you have the most wonderful hikes either by foot or a short car ride away. Boulder really is an amazing destination for outdoor enthusiasts all year round. 
Pabu and Momo are real cuties too! very cuddly. Pabu is eager to eat everyone's food, but Ben&Laura left super helpful instructions and tools so we could make sure everyone gets their fair share.
In general the house manual is extremely helpful and really contains everything that anyone could need.
Thank you soso much, Ben&Laura for your flexibility, generosity and trust!! We would be excited to come back any minute!
