Leslie
Dior came into town a day before the sit and we’re so glad we got to meet her in person! Her exuberance is truly contagious. She was flexible with our changing needs with our foster dog and provided the best care for our pet Obi. She gave detailed updates, sent pictures, and even sent a video of the house when leaving since we had  another sitter coming. Dior was organized, thoughtful, and very responsible! We would absolutely recommend Dior to stay with your pets.

Eva
This was a great sit! Eva was very nice and explained everything. Taking care of sweet Fortunato was really easy. I stayed in the whole time (I live in LA so don't need to explore!), but this is a great area to be in- lots to do. I would highly recommend this sit.

Patsy
Patsy, Javi, and Leo were such a pleasure to sit for! Javi and Leo are such adorable pups and very well behaved. They loved walks in the neighborhood and playing in the yard. Patsy maintained excellent communication and was SUCH an amazing host. Everything was well organized, clean, and prepared. Everything went very smoothly and her house is very comfortable and beautiful. I will definitely be coming back to sit! Thank you for an amazing stay, Patsy! Until next time :)

Skye
This was our first sit for Skye and she is a lovely, caring person. Skye was very welcoming from the very first time we met her.
The house was very clean and well equiped and had all the amenities you need.
Her 3 cats all had a lovely nature and were extremely easy to take care of, giving us plenty of time to discover the beautiful area of Forster-Tuncurry.
The house is situated in a quiet area but easily walking distance in to the town centre of Tuncurry.
Communication with Skye was very good and we could tell she really loves her 3 fur babies.
We hope to return one day to sit for Skye but anyone who is lucky enough to sit for Skye will be very lucky.

Nicole
Nicole and Hal are some of the kindest hosts that we have ever sat for! From the first moment we all met they were so gracious with their home and their time, really taking the time to show us all the inner workings of their house . I cannot emphasize enough how wonderful they are! 

Their home is beautiful and in an absolutely wonderful neighborhood  that is incredibly fun to walk, but that is also close to so many incredible hiking areas! 

As for the fur babies they were an absolute JOY to sit for. Each one carries his own unique personality which makes things like playtime, cuddling, and feeding times one of the most fun experiences we have had! We became very used to any one of them coming up to us while we were working or watching tv and just falling asleep on our lap; they were so great each and every day and we loved looking after them!

I truly couldn’t recommend this sit enough! Everything about it was so great and we couldn’t be more grateful for Nicole and Hal!

Suzy
Toffey was an absolute character. I loved spending time with her. She was immediately comfortable with a stranger (and strange dog) in the house. The spot is wonderful with beautiful views of the country side and immediately next to woodlands walks for the pups. The house is very comfortable and the yard secure. Suzy and Robert were lovely and I had a very comprehensive folder with all the information I could need to have a great stay.
