I really enjoyed my recent "sit" at Marc and Kathy's beautiful home with an amazing view and lovely garden.  Their pets, Juno the Husky and George, the senior Siamese cat were so easy to look after and a pleasure to be around.

I met with Marc and Kathy before my visit so I got to have an in person review of what was needed with respect to the garden and the needs of Juno and George.  Aside from that they were very helpful and quick to get back to me with any questions I had.  They also left me some gifts which were much appreciated!

Some people think Huskies can be a little high maintenance as they are energetic but Juno was very easy to walk both on and off the leash in the beautiful trails at Royal Roads near their home.  George is just a very sweet, cuddly cat who loved to snuggle up to me in the evenings and pretty perky for 22 years old!

I would absolutely recommend this sit and I'd be happy to do it another time!

We truly enjoyed our 3 week sit for Laura's pets!  This is a wonderful family, and they all made us feel welcomed into their lovely, comfortable home. Their dog, Birdie, is so incredibly lovable, and very well trained. She is a true pleasure to be around! Ninja, the cat, is an avid bird watcher who will also chase dog toys!  Peachtree City is a great community with lots of natural beauty, and it's a blast to cruise around on the golf cart!  Highly recommend!

This home has six of the most wonderful characters in it--five of them are wonderful fur babies. Let's start with the pups. Alfie is the biggest lap dog you'll ever meet. He's a barnacle, a Klingon, and won't leave your side. The "twins," Charles and Lady, are a pair of precious and beautiful 10 year olds who will let you carry them around like babies if you are willing. And the boss of this crew is Henry, a 16 year old man who is sweet but has not time for much tomfoolery. They spend most of their time lounging in the front room and receiving love as much as you're willing to give. Then, there's the beautiful Cary the cat, a shy boy who lives upstairs most of the time. He managed to run out on me once and came back (that had never happened to me before), so, please make sure you have him safely tucked away and shut in his sanctuary before opening a door. He's loving when he gets used to you, and we spent some quality time together up in his special room.

The house is absolutely beautiful, with walks in a beautiful wooded area right on your doorstep. The community croft is right next door as well. Behind you, the Welsh hills loom green and lovely. And the view of the sea is breathtaking. The bed is one of the best I've slept in for some time. Ian wants you to feel at home there, and you certainly do. The neighbors are all wonderful and know the animals and Ian, the homeowner.

And Ian is the last character in this home. He is a kind and calm person who had everything carefully spelled out in the instructions and is incredibly experienced when it comes to pet care and love since he operates a rescue facility as well nearby. In fact, all of his animals are rescues if that tells you about his love for all creatures great and small. He's generous, available, and he is happy to answer any questions you may have. 

This is a highly recommended sit. I'd love to come back here some day.

I had a wonderful time in Prague and Sheri's wonderful home. Both of her dogs are delightful and energetic but so full of love! I wouldn't hesitate to go back to Pascal and Maggie again!
