Kerry
It was an absolute pleasure to house-sit for Kerry and take care of beautiful Ella. 
The home is a one-of-a-kind, truly charming place on the outskirts of a good town with plenty to do. Surrounded by vineyards and an incredible Reservoir Park, all within walking distance. A short walk takes you into the town with plenty of amenities like pubs, restaurants, and a supermarket.
Ella makes a great companion, never leaving your side. Though calm and gentle, she is still full of life and a pleasure to house-sit for!

Mimi and Nico are a crackup! Both are very playful and very cuddly, so you won't feel lonely for a moment. Little Bit gets around amazingly well for being blind. This was my first time looking after chickens, and they were surprisingly easy to care for. Sonny was very welcoming, explained everything clearly. I had a wonderful time and recommend this home to all fellow travelers!

Claire
Claire and Steve were wonderful hosts and had a lovely warm home in the beautiful English country side.   They took their three dogs on vacay with them so I only had to watch the two gorgeous Persian cats, 3 ducks, 9 chickens and three rabbits.  A very easy sit!
They were very gracious to leave me a car to get around in since I was pretty isolated in the country.  This was a lovely sit and would definitely return if they need another sit.  I also appreciated that they recommended me to their friends, but I was already scheduled for another sit.  Highly recommend Claire and Steve for their  next pet sit.

Seth and Frida were incredibly welcoming, their home was clean and has lots of amenities, and their adorable pup, Bunny, made our San Diego adventures even more enjoyable with her cuddly and super loving nature. We can highly recommend this sit and will miss adorable Bunny!

Gemma
This was a fantastic sit over the Christmas and New Year period.
Watson was just a wonderful companion to explore the parks and beaches around the area. He is very well behaved, loves the car and is ball mad. I don’t think I’ve ever looked after such an obedient dog. 
Gemma was very communicative from the word go. She told us everything we needed to know about Watson, her home and the area she lived in. Her communications were clear and w3 appreciated all the information. Gemma’s home has everything a sitter needs. She left us lots of space in the fridge and freezer which we were very grateful for. Our bedroom had a very comfy bed and lots of drawer and hanging space. The bathroom next door was large and uncluttered with a fantastic shower. 
The park was a very short stroll away and there was a few supermarkets about a 10 minute walk in the same direction as the beach. Everything was on the doorstep. We did have a car as we wanted to explore the area but it would have been easy to stay here without one. I’m not sure about public transport. I did see buses but I didn’t investigate.
All in all I would recommend this sit to anyone. Thank you Gemma for choosing us and I hope you enjoyed your holiday.

Whether it be complete luck or fate, we came across this short notice sit and managed to fill the only three days we had available on our calendar. And not only did we fill our dates, but we got a pet sitters dream (baby animals... as in kittens). Plus the Cotswold area. Enough said. That alone makes this a 5 THUMBS UP sit.

Communication was excellent with Kate and knew we'd be a great fit. Kate and Alan's home is beautiful, in a fantastic village (and area) and as mentioned, kittens:). As well as the kittens, there is also Sophie. A young cuddly cat that is doing her best to tolerate the rambunctious duo (which was nonstop entertainment for us:) Kate left her home impeccable and we felt at home the second we walked in the door. Can't say enough good things about this sit other than, if the chance comes up... take it!

Look forward to a return visit.
