Suzanne has two sweet cats and lives in a lovely and peaceful space. There was always good communication. Everything was ready for my stay. Suzanne went out of her way to make sure both arriving and departing went with grace and ease. Both her cats, Bodhi and Leela, are easy to care for and so sweet. They let you know their needs like food or to go out and explore, come and snuggle and play when they want attention, and will find a spot in the same room or another part of the house when they want a little space. The home was quiet, serene and has everything one needs. It’s in close proximity to Lake Washington and the Arboretum for some lovely places to enjoy and walk. Suzanne’s backyard is a Sanctuary within itself. I would highly recommend a pet sit at Suzanne’s home and would love the opportunity to sit for her once again!
I really enjoyed looking after Micol's delightful pets. As a host, she is very hospitable and generous, and her apartment is adorable, as are her pets. It was just the right stop for getting lots of rest and recovery after being on the road for a while. As for location, it is almost a stones throw away from a station that takes you into the city. And just walking distance, is a quaint little town, with grocery shops and other boutiques to pick through. Her pets are charming and well behaved as well. I highly recommend.
Really great location in Potrero Hill. Ample parking and safe neighborhood. Eggs and Toni were a delight and well behaved. Toni is quite the athlete with her feather wand toy!
What a lovely part of the country to be sitting… and what a lovely pet to sit for - Nellie. She is a beautiful young black Labrador and we fell in love with her. Of course by the next sit she may well have grown up. As it was she was all legs and elbows, curious and wanting our attention, loved walking along the beach which was virtually at the bottom of the garden and where we could let her off the lead to play. She was good with other dogs and people but look after your sandwiches…lol. She was happy in her crate and good at bedtime. Nicky and Richard were perfect hosts and very friendly and welcoming. Their house was beautiful with all the amenities and a large garden. Highly recommend this sit… can’t think of anything else a sitter could want…except the energy to enjoy this beautiful animal…Nellie.
Clair and Jim gave me all their trust and generosity. From the beginning it was very easy to agree with them, and they always made an effort to provide me with whatever was useful for the sitting and for my comfort. They are a beautiful family. Thank you Clair and Jim. Tony is a beautiful, calm and very affectionate kitten. I sure will miss him! The house is magnificent, very comfortable and pleasant to be. And Cambridge a beautiful place to meet. Without hesitation, I would give them my support again. For me it would be a joy!
A special place…8th floor looking out over the ocean; plenty of places to walk, beach, Marina, Breakwater; and a special most loving cat…Charlie! K:-)
