Amanda was great with our kitties. They took to her immediately as she walked in the door. She was friendly and easy to talk with and we immediately felt comfortable. Not only was she a previous cat owner, she had experience in dealing with some older kitties and understanding that they need medication and sometimes a little more attention. I didn't worry about the cats or the house while we were away. She took the time to walk Tiger several times a day outside with his harness and leash. He likes to spend time outdoors. I have 3 other cats that needed medication and love as well. All of my cats are lap cats and are used to lots of attention. I don't think our cats missed us. She was there to love on them. She kept us informed daily with photos and texts. Our house was clean and well cared for when we returned. She took the time to put kitchen items back in their original spots. She was very careful. The litter boxes were clean with fresh litter, the house was vacuumed, mopped and dusted as well as making sure the bathrooms were clean too. She put clean sheets back on the bed and washed all the towels and put them away. I do appreciate it when our guests can do this. Sometimes it is not possible when they must leave early in the mornings. I don't expect them to get up an extra hour or so earlier just to get the wash done. She was able to do this and we did appreciate. She picked up our mail and had it on the counter for us and watered our outside plants in pots. Our home is not an Airbnb. It is our personal home. Accidents do happen but she was careful with all of our kitchen appliances and tools. I would highly recommend her to pet sit/housesit in your home. She paid attention to detail. I would definitely ask her to come back and petsit/housesit for us again. She is a homeowner and understands how to maintain a home. She is trustworthy and will be respectful to your pets and your personal possessions. She did follow my instructions and the cats were well taken care of while we were gone. She also returned the house keys and gate opener in the spot that we requested. Some do not.

It was a delight. Jon and Eileen are very welcoming. We had a lovely and relax time together. The dogs are super loving and easy to take care of. The location is beautiful as well with astonishing view of the Pyrenees.

Wendy and George are amazing hosts! They are super friendly, organized and just so NICE! They are both artists in their own rights and just great peeps. The loft is FANTASTIC - there are no other words - and comfortable. Its full of interesting art and objects and every time I turned around I saw something new. And you have NEVER seen a kitchen like this. Just WOW! Squeaks Maghee and Quink are fun and super entertaining. Squeaks is very low key and loves to be brushed - until  just NO...Quink is a hoot - climbing everything and letting me know when  she wants anything. She is very persistent, so just do what she wants when she asks because she won't stop until you do!  I would most certainly welcome another visit!

Elizabeth
This was a short but sweet sit looking after Claude and Rory! I had such a lovely time in Elizabeth and Jenn's beautiful home. I didn't get to meet Elizabeth in person, but we communicated by text and everything was very friendly, clear, and straightforward. I did get to meet the lovely Jen who gave me a tour of the house and introduced me to the cats!

Claude is obsessed with food and quite independent until he wanted to sit on my knee for a little while in the evening which was very sweet! Rory is the fluffiest little kitten and loves to be cuddled and showered with attention. He loved to play fetch with his little mouse toy and snuggled up by my shoulder to sleep! Both were really lovely cats to care for.
I'd recommend this sit to anyone and would return without hesitation!

Barbara y Margherita fueron muy acogedoras desde el primer momento. Nos recogieron del aeropuerto e invitaron a comer el primer día, para conocer también a sus chicas, Mika y Gigia. La perrita es agradecida, cariñosa y obediente. Gigia se mostró cercana desde el primer momento (a su manera, claro). 
La casa esta a pocos minutos de la playa, donde llevábamos a Mika por largos paseos 2 veces al día. Muy amablemente nos dejaron su coche para visitar la isla y poder hacer los recados mas cómodamente.
Recomendaríamos este lugar a cualquiera que quiera unos días de paz y desconexión.
Muchísimas gracias de nuevo, Barbara u Margherita. Hemos disfrutado al máximo de vuestro hogar y de las chicas en el paraíso! 
Esperamos volver 🤍
Un abrazo enorme

We really enjoyed sitting for Clemmie and Hettie, they are both lovely dogs with very different personalities. Clemmie is older and more laid back loving her home comforts and tummy rubs. Hettie is younger with lots of energy. Both are very easy to walk, we took Hettie on some extra walks and her recall was great and she was very well behaved when meeting other dogs. We didn’t get to meet Rob but communication with him before and during the sit was quick and easy. Their home is very clean and comfortable and in the beautiful village of Combe Hay.

Callie
Everything was amazing. Like, even the most critical boo-hooer and naysayer wouldn’t have anything bad to say about Callie, Gandalf and Dumbledore. Callie’s home is extremely warm and inviting. Her two cats are among the friendliest and most lovable I’ve ever had the pleasure to petsit.
