This was such an enjoyable and lovely sit! Chris is so friendly and welcoming and was very easy to communicate with throughout the stay. Buster and Molly are absolutely adorable and both will easily make your heart melt! They are both very easy-going and laid back. Our days were spent lounging outside, picking blueberries, and enjoying the beautiful weather. Such a dream. :) Chris has created a very peaceful and cozy home environment in a nice part of Portland. You have a great deal of privacy yet you're still part of a neighborhood with plenty to do. Her home is also within a 15-minute drive to downtown and an hour and a half to the coast. I wish I could give more than 5 stars for how truly wonderful this sit was! I'm thrilled I am able to spend more time with Molly and Buster in the future. I recommend this sit for anyone who wants to hang out with two very friendly and mellow pets in a beautiful location in the Pacific Northwest. Thanks again, Chris! Everything was wonderful.
Brook and Brett are wonderful people who we can now say we are friends with. We got to hang out together after the sit and would be excited to sit for them again. We had a wonderful time in their beautiful home and Tini an a Basta were really awesome kitties. Basta was extremely friendly and required a lot of affection, which we were happy to provide and were really grateful for. The community where the home is, is beautiful, but you'll need a car or taxi service to take you grocery shopping. There is a bakery and a small store at the entrance to the community within walking distance. Enjoy your stay in this beautiful home if you are lucky enough to be chosen.
Staying at Todd & Heidi's was like living in a postcard...this part of the coast is extraordinarily beautiful. I had the pleasure of meeting them- and the kitties- before the sit (which was especially helpful given that I have some special needs they were able to accommodate after a walk through). The home is super cozy, bright and clean- loved the deep tub, the well organized kitchen, and lots of accessible free movies on their channels. The 3 sister-kitties have distinct purrsonalities, and it was so fun to get to know them over the course of almost 2 weeks. It was good to have tips from Heidi & Todd about the subtle and not-so-subtle mealtime issues (various degrees and tactics for poaching the other's food) so that I could best monitor everyone getting their share of food. (Hint: the largest one is the most savvy about this, though she is the picture of innocence. LOL.) They are responsive (which made kitty-herding a breeze!) and love to play, which we did a lot of! The garden is beautiful, and was pumping out strawberries and greens when I was there. Overall such a sweet stay!
