This was the second time Aunt Edina and Uncle Casemiro came to visit, and we’re SO delighted they agreed to come back! As soon as they arrived our gang rushed out to greet them, they definitely remembered them from a previous visit and were over the moon to see them again! We left knowing we had nothing to worry about and that everything was in the best hands possible. Our travel times were tight, so we didn’t get to spend as much time handing over as we would have liked, but we were also 100% confident that our house and babies were in good hands. We’ve had one very poorly doggie awaiting surgery, and they handled him beautifully including medication and vet visits. It's only because we knew we could totally trust them that we didn't cancel the holiday completely - that's how much confidence we have in them. I have to say that Edina and Casemiro have become friends for us, they’re just two beautiful people and we really look forward to getting to know them more and nurturing a lasting friendship!
Once again zeewoi delivered an AMAZING sitter and the name of this amazing soul is Linda! Linda reached out to my post to look after my sweet but very opinionated cat Frida, and we immediately bonded over the phone. Linda has a great sense of humor and after hearing more about her and her great questions, I could tell she took responsibility very seriously and she was the one! I loved her open and warm personality and knew that my Frida (the smartest of my 3 kitties) would love her. My sister and I, were flying my other two cats (Mango and Oli) to stay with my sister in San Diego via Alaska Airlines Just an fyi: Alaska, is a wonderful airline for pets as they allow your pets to fly with you under your seat for a $100 fee per pet. It was pretty incredible to see how good Linda is with pets! She has had both dogs and cats, so understands their different needs. Frida (and I) couldn't have been more charmed! She sent me loads of pictures and videos of Frida and shared concerns when she was running low of Frida's favorite wet food (i rushed ordered it from Amazon and all was restored in Frida land-lol). She even bought Frida a toy (looks like a baby lamb-sooo cute). Frida was so comfortable with Linda and Linda with Frida. Linda was extremely attentive to what Frida wanted and needed that she picked up on little nuances from Frida that only i knew about-amazing! Linda left my home spotless and also left me a lovely card and adorable presents (she totally didn't have to do that but i appreciated them very much!) and when I came back to my place and opened the door in anticipation to see Frida, I could actually see the dissapointment in her eyes that it wasnt Linda. 😁🤣 She actually went around looking for Linda for the next few days!! If you are considering Linda to housesit your pet(s), just do it! Just be prepared for protests from your furr babies on your return! I am convinced Linda is a cat and dog whisperer. Thank you Linda for taking such good care of my baby and home. 🐈🙏🏽❤️🥰
