Pam and Dave are a hospitable couple who invited us out to dinner on our first evening before leaving. Their home is warm and cosy in a quaint little village just outside Bristol. It was interesting chatting to the locals and seeing the sights while enjoying several activites in the area. Paisley is cuddly, loves attention and long walks. She enjoys playing with her chew toys and likes to play fetch with a ball or stick. She will actually find a stick herself to initiate play. Delilah is friendly and purrs loudly the moment she is near you, she then comes closer for cuddles. Gus is quiet and timid so does not approach you. He is happy to sleep, sit alone on the window sill or wonder around outside. Paisley and he interact together but not Delilah. We had a wonderful time enjoying the country side and looking after their pets and lovely home. Thanks again, Hans and Diana
We had a wonderful time with Jason and Allie's 3 gorgeous pets in a stunning location. Everything was very clear and they were very generous to invite us to use any food etc that was there. Jason was kind enough to collect us from the station and drop us off again at the end of the sit. We loved our walks in the countryside around their place. All in all it was a great experience.
I had a fantastic time at Connie's place. Rocky and Millie are sweet, independent cats so it was very easy to take care of them. The appartment is spacious, bright, cosy and surprisingly quiet considering that it's located in a lively district of Kreuzberg. Connie made me feel very comfortable and welcome. She informed me thoroughly about the cats' routine and the appartment, leaving no room for uncertainty. I highly recommend this sit and hope to see three of you again :)
I had a wonderful time house sitting for Claire! She and her husband are wonderful people, generous, and committed to caring for stray dogs and cats. Before I arrived and during my stay, Claire was always available and responsive; I felt that she set me up well to be successful in taking care of her animals. Although there are 4 dogs and 6 cats, they are well trained and behaved and Claire gave me clear instructions on what I needed to do. I thoroughly enjoyed the affection of the animals and getting to know their unique personalities. The property is located in a very picturesque area of Cyprus and I was able to explore many interesting places, go to the beach, eat tasty food in nearby restaurants, and hike in the area. Claire was generous in giving me access to her car and bike to make all of these things possible. After living in a big city, the semi-rural setting was quaint and a well-needed break from all of the city noise. The house is very comfortable and I enjoyed sitting by the pool, reading in the many sitting areas, and cooking. I highly recommend this house sit for anyone who is okay with doing quite a bit of animal care (approx. 1 1/2 - 2 hours a day - feeding, cleaning cat litters, walking dogs, general cleaning up) and enjoy the simple, rural life.
