David and Corinna made us feel welcomed and explained very well the details about the house, how to care for the cats, and how to be familiar with the location. We got to know them as a very loving and caring family! Being in the countryside with spectacular views made it a really peaceful atmosphere! It was easy to travel with public transportation either for country or city trips. The cats, Mushu and Rusitta, have very unique and loving personalities. It is hard not to adore them! They were also easy to care for. The communication with David and Corinna was easy and always helpful. We truly enjoyed our stay and would be happy to come back! We highly recommend house/pet sitting for them!
This sit was absolutely dreamy! We thoroughly recommend it to other sitters! The house is lovely, spacious and very comfortable. The garden is huge and beautiful! In fact we ate outside for every meal to enjoy the stunning views, as we were blessed with delightfully sunny weather for the entire sit. The location is amazing; being walking distance to the moor and only short driving distance to the sea, we had some unforgettable days spent exploring the area. Georgie and Alex are wonderful hosts, we went for a gorgeous walk on our arrival night and shared a lovely supper together. Communication with them was super easy throughout. The dogs, Kali and Mamba were truly a pleasure and joy to look after. We both really enjoyed their company; taking them out for walks and cuddling on the sofa in an evening. Merlin the cat might just be the chillest cat in all the land, he was such a calm energy to be around. All three were very sweet and loving pets and we would love the opportunity to look after them again in the future. Thank you Georgie and Alex for the lovely experience x
I had a lovely time caring for Snow in Tottenham Hale. Snow is a beautiful cat, with heaps of personality and is extremely playful. She loves to snuggle up at night on the bed as you sleep - and is never too far away during the day. She loves nothing better than watching the world go by through the floor-to-ceiling windows, followed by a nap on the couch! Snow is easy to care for, and loves her water fountain, automatic food dispenser and of course her delicious treats! Dharini and her husband live in a beautiful, new apartment - which is located conveniently close to the Tottenham Hale underground station. The apartment is also close to supermarkets, coffee shops and a small retail park. Communication was fantastic throughout the pet-sit. Dharini was super-responsive to my WhatsApp messages even though she was in a different time-zone. I'd love to return and care for Snow again in the future, if needed. This really was a great pet-sit which I'd highly recommend to others.
We really enjoyed our 3-month-stay at Liza’s beautiful rural house with the lovely cats. Liza is a perfect host as she offers a warm welcome, detailed instructions and outstanding preparations for the stay. Additionally, we were always able to contact Liza easily and got help when needed. The cats, especially Tiger & Kali, took us into their group without complications and we enjoyed the company in front of the stove and even during walks. At this point should be mentioned, that a car is recommended for the stay as the house is rather remote and the area is worth exploring. And, as Liza’s description says, this is a permaculture project house so the property and the house itself are rustic and natural. We really enjoyed these aspects during our stay in the cozy autumn months but it should be kept in mind. We really love to look back at the lovely days at Liza’s place!
It was a pleasure to meet Louise and Anthony, who offered us our first house sit after we sold our own house and our onward purchase fell through. They welcomed us and showed us around the comforts of their home, giving us all the information we might need. Very comfortable... we had somewhere to relax and work with fast wifi and the dogs enjoyed popping into Teams and Zoom calls. We had three ladies to look after, who were great fun and the best snoozers we've ever seen. Ruby, Pepper and Luna were all very different characters, but they got on with each other famously, were very easy to look after and we enjoyed long rambles over the fields and tracks right from the front door. Goodness knows how many kilometres we walked over the 17 days. When we visited the local reservoir for a different walk they happily piled in the back of my Mini (it has a dog guard) and travelled without a peep, busy looking out of the back window. The nearby villages of Wolsingham, Stanhope and Crook had everything we needed although a short drive will reach Durham and Newcastle as well. A brilliant sit... one we can recommend to others... and one we will return to if we are needed in the future. Thank you again.
It was a short and sweet stay. From the beginning I was greeted by Cashew he is such an adorable and playful kitten! I would happily sit there again. The flat was really lovely and clean, close to all the shops and restaurants.
