This was my first time having a stranger stay at my place, so this was a big deal for me. I had a good feeling about Kyle from the start and was excited about the idea of helping a fellow Bostonian see the unparalleled city of Austin. Like me, he works from home in the healthcare industry. I had the privilege of meeting Kyle on the first day of the sit. I found him to be friendly, funny, and affable. As this was my first time having a sitter, I texted Kyle details of the apartment and pet care as I thought of them. I appreciated him baring with me through this as I am working to now compile a user-friendly guide. Kyle was sure to communicate frequently. He updated me often about his arrival and departure and also sent pictures of himself with Gypsy during the stay. He also gave me a heads up about having someone over. The only questions he had were about the laundry, which evidently was the one thing I didn't go over. He was self-sufficient and attentive to the fine details of the apartment and the care of my cat. Kyle relieved the stress of stress of separation anxiety my cat goes through when left alone, therefore relieving me of inevitable guilt. My cat seemed to be at ease when I returned home. I could tell she missed me, but she did not seem stressed whatsoever! As Kyle promised, the apartment was not only just as clean as I left it, but cleaner. I have a bad habit of stuffing my recycling underneath the sink and procrastinating the removal. I was pleasantly surprised to find Kyle emptied the whole thing. In this he must have discovered I'm a beer drinker because he also left me a 6 pack! Not only this, but he left a bunch of food, which is great because I'll eat anything you leave in my apartment. Would absolutely have Kyle again. Highly recommend him to give you and your pets ease when traveling.

Sweet, friendly dogs, a lovely home in a natural scenic area, and gracious hosts. We couldn’t ask for a better stay. We thoroughly enjoyed the sit and look forward to helping them in the future. Highly recommend!

Marissa
I had an amazing time at Marissa’s place with little Oscar. Marissa is such a warm and kind lady, a lovely person and a gracious host! I felt right at home at her beautiful serene apartment on a quiet street near Central Park. It’s a real oasis of calm amid the bustling UWS. Marissa decorated her place with love. And the little boy Oscar was my best friend while I stayed there for a few days. He is the sweetest and the cutest cat in the world! He purrs a lot and his presence is very soothing. He loved lying on a soft rug in the sun and posing for pictures. And he was overjoyed every time I would return home from running errands in the city. He is such a lovebug. I can’t recommend this sit enough and would do it again in a heartbeat.

This was my first sit using the platform, and it couldn’t have been better! Kris and Barb were so incredibly welcoming and they took the time to do a walkthrough in addition to leaving very thorough instructions on how to care for Toby and Trekker. The kitties are very low maintenance, and their defined routines make it extra easy to care for them. Their home was a perfect spot for my mom and I to take a mini vacation to explore Madison, and I’d definitely visit again.

I've just spent two lovely weeks with Kiki. Communication with Mandy was excellent both before and during the sit. I arrived just in time for her to show me around the house before they set off on their holiday. 
Kiki was an absolute joy to look after. She is stunningly beautiful and has a very friendly personality. With the glorious weather, she spent most of her days outside, coming in from time to time to feed. We became firm friends from the beginning, and morning lie-ins were fun with head butts and cuddles. She does have an annoying habit of turning her nose up at wet food depending on her mood. As this was attracting flies in the heatwave, I stopped putting it out unless she asked for it and this worked better than putting it out automatically.
The house and garden are so relaxing. As it was hot particularly during the second week, it was nice on a couple of days just to sit 'at home' and enjoy the garden. The location is ideal - just minutes from the centre. I had forgotten how pretty Harrogate is. There are also many places to visit within very easy driving distance. Mandy has a useful list in her information folder. 
All in all, this is a highly recommended sit, and I hope I will be able to visit again if and when dates coincide. Thank you, Kiki, Mandy, Thibault, May and Joe!

Vivien has a beautiful and warm house! Communication with her was easy and fast. Basil loves to cuddle, and play with his toys. If you are lucky enough, he will go to your bed at night to sleep❤️
The sunsets in Bosham are gorgeous!

Coreena
Coreena and Jay were amazing hosts! they have a very lovely home with a beautiful view of the mountains. Kona and Rocky were amazing and we had lots of fun with them walking and running in the trails. We went to a different trail every day! There was never a dull moment with these dogs. They are just so much fun! Kona was very sweet and cuddly and Rocky has this boyish charm and playful. Coreena and Jay were very hospitable and they welcomed us like family. It was nice to spend time with them and have dinner before and after we the housesit. They are very organized and had everything listed and prepared before they left the house so it made our housesit very easy and worry-free. They definitely are experts in housesitting and been doing this for a while. We had such a  great time and would definitely housesit for them again!
