Manny and Marina are the BEST! Easy to communicate with, and I felt confident that they would ask questions if something came up (and they did). They sent just enough updates and photos to keep us reassured but without plunging us into missing our kitties too much. They loved the cats so much that they a) bought us a tiny adorable figurine that looks like one of them, b) came back in for pets and chats a few days after the sit had ended and they had returned for a forgotten water bottle. To sum up, lovely human beings, would totally trust them for anything, the cats obviously really liked them, and the cats and house were well tended while we were gone. Completely recommend without hesitation.

This was a great house-sit.  The house is very comfortable and it was spotless. The cats were easy to care for and warmed up to me pretty quickly.  I would definitely volunteer to house-sit again.

This sit has to be one of the best house cat sits we have ever experienced. It was just amazing in SO many ways! 
When we first met Julia and David online for a video chat, we felt very comfortable, they're so friendly and helpful. Julia was excellent with communication from the very beginning to the end of our stay. We ended up staying longer than the 17 days as they had problems with Jetstar and we were thrilled we could stay longer as it is like Paradise in their stunning part of the world. We really didn't want to leave! Their home is a typical Trullo house with lamies, such an experience to stay in such a traditional old home from hundreds of years ago. The view of the Adriatic sea and the olive groves below is so stunning, we ate all of our meals outside every day we were there and enjoyed watching the cruise and cargo ships passing by. Their gardens are stunning and we were well supplied with figs and pears during our stay. David made a delicious Indian curry the evening before they left and we enjoyed sharing our stories with each other, mostly travelling and animals.:) 
As for their four furry babies, we couldn't have wished for more, Blaise is a very laid back boy and bonded with us almost immediately. It didn't take long before the other three furry bundles realised that we were actually nice guys , so we bonded quickly and just loved their company so much. They're a very chatty bunch and we found ourselves having interesting cat conversations with them, so we are now fluent in cat language :)
The coast is a mere 20 minute drive and we enjoyed  visiting many interesting places, including Alberobello, Ostuni, stunning Monopoli and Poligrano a Mer. Mark and I would definitely recommend Julia and David's sit, 6 stars from us! Thank you Julia and David for entrusting us with your lovely home and stunning  furry clan. It was such a pleasure!

We had a fantastic experience minding Molly who is the sweetest dog and the lizard got his crickets/greens and was basic care. It was a bonus to have great weather to enjoy the pool. We also went on nearby walking tracks and relaxed. A great weekend and we were warmly welcomed, thank you!

Linnea and Chris
This was such a lovely housesit! Communication with Linnea was incredibly easy and stress-free from the start, and she was always available to answer any questions/help out the entire time. While we never got to meet in person, I felt welcome and comfortable in their home right away :)

Boom is a cutie and was immediately cuddly from day one! We spent a lot of time together during the sit and I was so sad to leave her at the end - she really is a sweetheart. 

Their home is super comfortable, modern, organized and has a lovely little outdoor area. Also only a quick walk to a few grocery stores which I loved. 

I would absolutely housesit for Boom + fam again :) thanks so much for everything guys!

I met with Terri and Dennis the night before they left.  They had instructions on everything and we went over it all.  They were very thorough.  You must love large dogs.  They are very friendly and affectionate, they can be lively but then all of the sudden they're all asleep.  They have a fenced in yard so no walking is necessary, they play with each other.  The house is great and the lake view wonderful.  I did enjoy watching the Disney fireworks from the back yard. The house is close to shopping and restaurants.

What a wonderful experience to be on this tucked away ranch in Nazareth! The 3 pups, Bentley, Ozzie and AnneAbelle were so affectionate, fun and easy, and loved being together. The sibling trio bond they share was special to observe. Because they are outside dogs and have control over when they want to be in or out of the garage, they manage their needs well. I was able to have lovely solitary time to focus on projects with little distraction. And the privilege of interacting some with the horses on their property was a delight.

Beautiful home, serene escape, incredible painted skies! I would strongly encourage you to take advantage of this unique opportunity. It will touch your heart in a transformative way.

Melanie, truly is the best! So kind, accommodating, funny, responsive, carring and always available. I'm blessed to have crossed paths with her.

I have had several sits, and this is like no other!
