George and Toffee were a delight to look after, well behaved and very good company. They both walked well on and off the lead and their recall was good. The beaches and coastal paths around Mawgan Porth are wonderful areas to walk and explore. The weather was very cold but sunny, so we were able to walk with the dogs miles every day. Both George and Toffee know how to behave in cafes and restaurants, so we were able to sample some of the Cornish culinary delights. After our exercise, George and Toffee would cuddle up on the sofa with us whilst we read or watched TV. Lucy and John were a great couple, they welcomed us into their beautiful, warm home and made us very welcome. Very kind and generous. We had clear instructions and a comprehensive hand over, and the sit went well without any hiccups. Perfect week, with two lovely dogs and we really look forward to future sits with Toffee and George .
I loved staying at Charlie's wonderful flat and taking care of her two sweet kitties. Her location in Hampstead is so beautiful and close to the underground for exploring London. I met with Charlie before she left and was able to go over the clear instructions she had sent me for taking care of the house and her cats. It was a pleasure meeting her and staying there with Pixel and Polly. I'm already returning there for another sit.
Heather and Matt were the kindest host, and they had the most adorable staffie and charming cat we met on this app! They kindly hosted us a bit longer that expected due to some life changing events on our travels. Their house was super neat and very welcoming, we had our room and our own bathroom too so it was easy to feel comfortable in their home. The house is only a ten minute drive away from the BART which makes it easy to navigate to San Francisco, and Lafayette is a cute Californian little town where many trails are at user’s disposition for biking and walking. Puccini the staff had these angel eyes that you can’t say no to, he’s super chill, loves walking but won’t hesitate to communicate when he’s tired. He’s super easy to care for, he sleeps most of the time when it’s not dinner time or walkie time. Jinxie the tabby cat was also super easy to sit, food and water is at her disposition, you just have to top it off and clean her litter box. Eventually she’ll warm up and accept some pets but she’s most of the time cozied up in her window hamac. She was one of the most beautiful cats we ever saw and those gigantic curious eyes that made us melt! We couldn’t be more grateful for this sit and for Matt and Heather’s heartwarming welcome. If the occasion presents itself, we would love to come back.
This was our longest sit to date, but it went by too quickly! Sadie is such a good girl - very sweet and very fit for a 10-year-old. She showed me all around the neighborhood on our thrice-daily walks. And when we were at home with her, she was never far away. In addition to her walks, Sadie enjoyed being brushed, which we did every day. She had suffered an injury just prior to our arrival which we monitored. I had paid for an upgrade to our membership for 24/7 video vet calls and decided on day 2 that I should take advantage of that service. It was recommended that we take Sadie to the vet, so I informed Sue and she made an appointment at her local vet's office and we took her in. Sure enough, Sadie needed antibiotics and within a few days, was on the mend. Sue and Danny's home is very conveniently located near stores and restaurants and with easy access to everything San Diego has to offer. Their neighborhood is surprisingly quiet. And, as a previous sitter said, the guest bed was very comfortable. We found everything we needed to prepare meals, including Le Crueset pans in every size imaginable! Sue also left a bag of gourmet coffee for us and a gift card for a local restaurant, which was very generous and thoughtful not to mention appreciated!
Linus was a bless, he was super sweet Al love that you pet him. Also he loves his walks around the neighborhood. Was very nice to spend time with him, you will keep him in your heart. Thank you Sunil & family for allowed me to take of him and your trust. See you soon!
The smoothest house sit I've ever done! Helen was communicating with me in the weeks leading up, and checked in with me the day before to make sure we both knew the plans of how I was getting there and what the expectations were. The house was lovely and clean, and there was space in the fridge for me to pop some things in there, as well as some milk I could use. Tea and coffee were there for my use as well, which made everything smooth sailing. She was very thorough with getting me settled in and explaining everything for Roscoe's routine, and he is the sweetest cat and was very easy to care for! Roscoe is a big snuggler, and made for a great housesit!
