Gwynne was perfect for petsitting our furbabies. Her communication was great, she was super reliable. She seemed to genuinely love being with our 2 dogs and cats. She sent updates and photos, usually surrounded by animals!! We highly recommend her.

Special thanks to Charles aka Al, Bob, Susie and Jenkins for a wonderful stay in Tucker, Ga. I felt very welcome in their family home. It's clear that the pups Susie and Jenkins are used to love, care and tenderness.  I enjoyed being apart of their pack. 

An enjoyable sit! 

Clear instructions made it easy.  Plus,  Susie and Jenkins are smart pups.  Also, they were quite the host escorting me room to room providing great companionship. I loved these two and miss them already.    

This time of year, Tucker, GA has gorgeous weather.   Backyard break-outs were graced with teams of butterflies and Humming birds. Charming neighborhood strolls were pleasant  and the chance to feast on local cuisine was a delight.  

Again, thank you for sharing your piece of heaven. 

I enjoyed this sit and highly recommend.

Bert and Rose were the best! Awesome communication and so kind and generous from beginning to end of the sit. Their home was super cozy and was so great to spend the holidays there ( they even had it decorated for Christmas with a tree and everything!) Marley was soooooo cute too. Lots of energy and lots of cuddles. She was great company and made me laugh everyday with her darling character. It is also in a fabulous location, walking distance to all you need restaurants, pubs, supermarkets, shops, and bus stops near by if you need or want to go farther. Appreciated the opportunity to sit for Marley and hope to have the chance to do it again in the future. I highly recommend this sit! :) Take good care!

Had the best time, Henry was a dream to look after and the best behaved Labrador I have ever met.  I was made to feel that your home was mine and I can’t thank you enough.  Would sit for you again anytime and would recommend you to anyone else, thank you :)

I had a lovely stay in a beautiful home looking after Marley and Tink. They are both adorable, loving dogs. To say the word ‘Walkies’ and see their ears prick up ready for a lovely walk was a joy. Annie was very friendly and made it very easy for me to know how to care for Marley and Tink. I would love to look after them again in the future. ?

Leah
Clean and comfortable house in a lovely and safe area. 

Communication with Leah was great in the run up and during the sit. We really appreciated how welcome she made us feel and all of the useful information she provided.

Both of her dogs are wonderful, Coco is always on your lap wanting cuddles and belly rubs. She also loves to chase leaves on walks, which is very cute. 

While Coco is on your lap, Lola will be glued to your side equally lapping up your fuss and attention. She is so fluffy and friendly and is constantly bringing her toys to you in case you want to play. 

We had a lovely time with Coco and Lola and hope to return and sit for Leah again soon.

Aimee
Aimee provided excellent written notes and detailed instructions about the care of her cats. She personally reviewed the house amenities and gardens needs. This attention to detail made the job easier to provide the care needed for both home and cats.
Each cat had their own unique personalities and approach to becoming familiar with myself and Rob.
Kya will clearly let you know when she needs more petting. Spud warmed up quickly and would be on the bed to greet every morning. Mr. Boy is such a chill cat but it’s clear he likes to be petted as well as he would do a headbutt for more attention.
Overall, we felt very honoured to care for Aimee’s garden, house and cats. I would highly recommend Aimee as a host and would be very willing to sit again as schedules allow. Aimee’s home and garden provide a beautiful comfortable place with nearby opportunities to explore the beauty of Oahu. Mahalo!
