Ashley and Mike were wonderful! They were very attentive to all our animals. Ashley periodically provided “PUpdates” with photos and those were wonderful to receive and read while we were away. Ashley was calm and levelheaded when one of our horses developed a cyst that ruptured. She kept us updated and raised concerns appropriately without creating or causing additional stress. I was able to get someone out to evaluate and treat our horse and he has healed up nicely, thanks to Ashley using the medicated spray that was provided. Our dogs all looked well taken care of and, while they were happy to see us, it was obvious they weren’t lacking attention. They were spoiled with gifts and treats. We couldn’t be more grateful. Our goats were plump and happy. Ashley even took care to rescue a couple who got their heads stuck in the new fencing we installed and she took photos so we knew exactly what needed to be fixed when we got home. Our chickens were laying regularly, which is another sign of good care. And our peacocks tail feathers were full and beautiful. The house was neat when we arrived home - sheets were washed and ready for us to re-make the bed they stayed in. A little dusting and wiping down of the patio furniture was all I needed to do when we got home and settled in. We had record growth in our front and backyards. Even though my husband did all the yard work before leaving, it was like Jurassic Park when we got home. I had to apologize to Ashley. We’ve never seen so much growth in the 10 years living here. The drought in CA is over folks! We’re happy about that, but we will likely hire a Gardner to keep the lawns and landscaping up next time we leave during the Springtime.

I just cannot say enough about Simone as our pet sitter and I’m sure if our kitty Zoe could talk, she’d agree! We did not get to meet Simone in person before the sit but after face-timing with her the day before, I knew we were leaving our girl in good hands. Zoe can be shy with strangers but she immediately took to Simone, rolling on her back & showing her tummy (a sure sign of trust). 
Simone sent daily communications & photos, did everything we asked her to do and left the house very clean and tidy. 
Thanks Simone for your loving care of our home & kitty. We would not hesitate to invite you to hang out with our Princess again (hopefully when the weather is better)!

Amy was great! Very communicative, and patient with the Roomba malfunctioning all week. She took great care of Clementine and Juniper - they didn’t miss me at all! I’d definitely have her back.

We had a great stay at Jamie and Pat’s. They communicated very well with us, leaving us a comprehensive house guide and offering a handover in person which was useful and welcoming. The house was left really clean for us and we had everything we needed for the stay. The apartment block is very conveniently located - close to a metro store, the river path for running/cycling and an easy walk to town. We spent a very happy week here.
Thank you for trusting us with Bella and Jackson. They were adorable - it took them a day to start trusting us but after that they would sit with us and demand to be brushed or played with. We really enjoyed getting to know their personalities!

Jan was so welcoming in her communication and was quick to respond to any queries I had before arriving .
Nancy is a gorgeous cat  - very friendly and loves a chat  - it was an absolute pleasure to look after her and we shared some lovely times .
Jans home was comfortable and had everything I could need . It’s walking distance to the beach - an added bonus with a wonderful week of weather ! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend looking after dear Nancy on the magical Isle of Wight .

I had a very good time at Saint Andrews/Starthkinnes. Ozzy is big nice cat. We liked very much to spend time together.  She likes to sit on the lap and that was a good tradition every evening. Elizabeth and Gerry gave me very good informations about Ozzy and so it was perfect. It was comfortable to stay in their house with this nice neigborhood. Also Saint Andrews is a very interesting town. Thanks.

Jon and Tisha were amazing to sit for. I really fell in love with their affectionate cat Drake and he was very easy to take care of. Jon was communicative, compassionate and caring towards my sit before, during and after. They even allowed me to stay a few nights after the sit to help me out for my next sit. I cannot emphasize their generosity. Thank you so much Jon and Tisha. You two are wonderful souls and I am glad to have met and sat for Drake. I would love to sit for them again if given the opportunity in the future. 

Wishing all the love for both Atticus and Drake.
