Manuela is a very sweet girl. She is social and kind to others. She helped my parents a lot (who live next door) and my mother really was a great fan of her. So she has good social skills. Manuela uses this site so she can find a place to stay, while she is looking for a job in the Netherlands or elsewhere in Europe. While she was staying in NL, she was following a study at the University. All that of course is not a problem at all; I realize that a lot of people here are using this site to find free or cheap accomodation. However this is a pet site, so the reliability and the quality of the petsitting should be the primary focus. 10 days before the sitting would take place, she informed me that she wouldn't be able to be present during the entire sit due to an in-person conference at the university that would last for a week. Of course this was less then ideal to me but since it was impossible to find another petsitter on such a short notice I went out of my way to find a replacement, and decided to pursue with her as my petsitter. However, half way during her stay she mentioned she would be gone for another week to do her exams at the university. So out of the entire month, she was only present for 50% of it. I had to make sure that I could find a replacement again. Luckily my stepdad was willing to take the care upon him. My pets are my babies so it is super important for me that the petsitter who applies for a period, actually is there the entire period. One of my cats, Frances was not eating well during her stay at my house. Of course that can happen; animals can get sick any time and that doesn't need to be a result of the care. However, my stepdad told me that the bowls in where the cats got their food in, were not clean and got dirty and even mold in it. When he stepped in and cleaned the bowls, Frances started eating again and after a couple of days he was back on his normal eating pattern. Another incident was with the rabbits, I gave her a manual in where I explicitly told her which veggies to give the rabbits and which not. I was not amused to see that she had fed them an entire plate of cut up carrots, while I had told her that they could only have a little piece of a carrot per day. My rabbits have supersensitive intestines and quickly to get gas problems. Carrots have a lot of sugar, so an entire plate can cause problems. Manuela did apply requests I made during my stay abroad; she did apply a spray against flies, when I asked her to and even washed one of the bunnies when that needed to happen. When I came home, I had to do some cleaning. Manuela hadn't noticed that the cats had been spraying on different places, including the kitchen counter and kitchen walls and cabinets. The state of the house was less important to me; I did notice she had cleaned the rabbit area very well so I was happy about that. I think Manuela did her best but just is a bit more casual about things then I would be.

Lisa and Mitch were delightful and I entirely trusted them with our house and dogs. 

We have a great, open dialogue before they arrived and prior to the sit.  While we were away Lia and Mitch kept us in close contact with the dogs which was very reassuring. 

A great family, lively conversation and delightful to get to know, we wish them all the best.

Grace was awesome! She was easy to communicate with and always responsive. She and her husband, Quinn, were warm, friendly, and easy to be around. They kept us updated on our dog, Tott'num, and he immediately loved them! Our house was spotless when we returned. Can't say enough great things about Grace and Quinn. We'd welcome them back anytime and highly recommend them to others!

We loved staying here and taking care of Monty + the garden!  We unfortunately never got to meet Chairman Meow.  Monty mostly spent his days outside and snuggling inside with us at night.  He is friendly, handsome, and so sweet.  We miss him!  Their home is fabulous and we felt very welcome/at home there.  It's in a great neighborhood with lots of options for food and strolls.  The Metro is blocks away!  We enjoyed taking care of the garden and enjoying the veggies growing in it.  Communications were easy throughout the whole process from initial application to finishing the sit.  We would highly recommend this sit if you have the chance and would do again!  Thank you for everything Rachel!!
