I was able to travel worry free knowing that Lori was lovingly taking care of my 13 month old puppy - and I returned to an immaculately clean house too.!
Taking care of Zhuri was a very nice experience, no doubt we will miss her very much. she is a shy dog that with the days she became more relaxed and very loving; it was a quiet stay, with everything we needed to spend two weeks comfortably. Erin was an excellent hostess, she explained everything we needed to know to take care of Zhuri and to be in her home, she was kind and we had a smooth communication. Now just thank you and wish Zhuri and Erin all the best.
The whole experience with Blair was a very positive one in the true spirit of THS as one would hope to have. Blair was responsive and decisive in selecting me to travel to Chicago to care for Sergio while he was away and offer his lovely apartment in a fantastic neighborhood to enjoy and feel right at home! Sergio is a gentle and sweet cuddly cat that showed how he enjoyed the company and all the attention I gave him with play, purring and sleeping at the foot of the bed each night. I enjoyed using the building’s gym, coffee in the amenity space and the magnificent view of the Chicago skyline from the rooftop! Thank you, Blair!
This sit was a total delight! The 2 babies were adorable and loved snuggling up to me. The Maine Coon (Beamer) Is absolutely adorable, lovable, and fortunately loves to be brushed. Coco was a little slower to warm up to me but it didn't take long for her to snuggle up to me. Both cats are sweethearts just as the owners! The owners had well written instructions on hand which was extremely helpful. I referred to that list often for the small items I may have forgotten. There was good communication during the entire visit. The house was in a delightful location - close to the beach and walkable to many shops and restaurants. (I took advantage of the off-season restaurant specials and sales, coming home with some nice bargains.) Thank you Timothy for letting me love on your babies!
We had a wonderful sit looking after the adorable Mac, in Gavin and Danielle’s beautiful home in Venice. Gavin and Danielle were always clear and quick with any comminication and all instructions were clearly outlined for us, no guess work needed! Mac is a sweetheart; independent but never wanders far when outside and always came running when we called his name. He loved playtime and cuddles on the sofa too. Needless to say the area is great as well, walking distance to everything you might need. No negtives to report at all, would definitely recommend Mac, Gavin and Danielle to any potential sitter! Can’t wait to see you again Mac!!
Great regency flat in a central location in Brighton. Ghost was a very playful cat who enjoys attention and while sometimes a little mischievous, was a delight to look after and keep company.
Kelly is an amazing person and Nero was the best cat I’ve ever been with, I loved housesitting for them.
