Elena was a fantastic sitter for our cat and dog! When we had our introduction video call before the sit, I immediately felt comfortable and knew they would be in safe hands thanks to her thorough questions. Elena was very sensitive to our specific instructions and pets' needs, and very communicative before and throughout the stay. Both our cat and dog were immediately very comfortable, rare for our cat especially. She took great care of our home and was also very patient and gracious with us when we ended up arriving home earlier. We would absolutely invite Elena back and highly recommend her for future sits!
Our sit with 4 loving lady labs Scarlett, Jazz, Abby & Florin was truly a delight. They are an affectionate, intelligent, very well trained, happy zoo, each with their own distinct personality. Their daily routines were easy, including roaming in the fenced field and impressive retrieve exercises. Julia & Anthony were very warm and welcoming. Their home is immaculate, well organized and very comfortable. There’s a place for everything and the home is easy to maintain. The Welcome Package provided clear instructions for the pets, their home and contacts – along with ample information on walks and places to visit. The views from the house are spectacular, and the beautifully landscaped gardens added to the feeling of being at a retreat more than a house sit. Our stay at Craven Arms was peaceful, filled with walks in nature, enjoying the song birds and the majestic Red Kite who resides in the nearby forest. We highly recommend this sit & hope to return when possible.
This was an enjoyable house sit in a beautiful home (with an awesome view). Remi is sweet, affectionate, and easy to care for. The accommodations were exceptional, and I strongly recommend this sit to anyone looking for a relaxing experience close to many hiking trails, parks, and antique shops.
I had a lovely stay at Kate and Andrew's house, the garden is beautiful and they have an amazing summer house which you are welcome to enjoy at the end of the garden. Archie is absolutely adorable, he didn't leave my side for a minute and gives the best cuddles! He was a pleasure to look after and such a character. Would definitely recommend this sit, Kate and Andrew were very easy going and communication was great.
A great stay with the furrballs. Easy communication, lovely apartment, lovely people.
Fredddieee! We loved caring for this adorable little guy! (We cared for Wilma as well, but she was pretty independent, especially with her automated food and litter box.) Freddie is irresistibly sweet, a lovely little gentleman who is well behaved and exactly as described by Mary and Shane. He loves his walks, but he doesn’t travel far, as his nose is working overtime to enjoy the neighborhood. At home he’s mostly sleeping, chewing on one of his toys, or occasionally trying to get Wilma to play. He slept in his crate overnight as well as when we were away from the house, but when we were home, he hung out on the rug or curled up with us on the sofa. Mary and Shane were friendly and accessible. They provided excellent instructions and responded immediately if I had a question. Their home is beautiful and in a great location for walking to local restaurants, and just around the corner from the California stop on the blue line. I would sit for them again in a heartbeat!
It was wonderful to stay in Nathalia’s lovely home to look after Ron! We met a few days before where she explained where everything is, etc. Ron is very easy to care for, and loves to cuddle up in bed!
