Lesley and Alec did a fabulous job pet sitting my cats Molly & Murphy. They more than exceeded my expectations. My pets were clearly well loved and taken care of in my absence, and my pets really bonded with them. Lesley and Alec sent me photos during my absence which was reassuring. Also, they took great care of my home -- it was cleaner after my return than when I left. They also did a great job in helping manage a problem with my freezer in my absence, which I greatly appreciated. Lesley and Alec are genuinely such lovely and caring people, and very responsible. I would have them back in a flash -- in fact I've already tried getting them to pet sit again, but weren't available. I very much hope they do come back -- my kitties miss them!
Such a nice and easy sit. Lindsay is a wonderful communicator, so kind and thoughtful. Finley is just the cutest and easiest dog. We had a lot of fun going on long walks nearby. There is a greenbelt in one direction and the lake in the other! The house was spotless and the roof deck on a summer evening was perfect.
Nick and Neil are the kind of people that make you feel comfortable, welcome and relaxed. Very kind, generous and warm hearted. Their home is very spacious and bright. To say its design is beautiful and unique is an understatement. Honestly, the house is an absolute wonderland. Another aspect I loved is how close nature is. Holyrood Park, Arthur Seat, Dr. Neils Garden and spacious, beautiful golf course are all accessible by foot. The walks in Duddingston are magical. As for Dasha, Pipkin and Hazel... it's such a joy seeing them in action. They are happy, playful and they always come back not too late . Honestly, can't recommend this sit enough. Will definitely come back. Thank you Nick and Neil!
I had a wonderful stay with Winnie and Dakota! They are sweet girls, who you will fall in love with instantly! Kerri is a great mom to them, and their home is very comfortable. They have a fenced in area behind the house where they love to relax during the day.  The neighborhood is great for walking, and there are all kinds of stores and restaurants nearby. Kerri is also an excellent communicator, and everything was flawless from start to finish. If you get a chance to sit in this home, you need to grab it.   THANK YOU KERRI!
