Julie was organized, cheerful, and responsive to any questions. We would love to have her again if it ever worked out.

Carina
This place was amazing for pet sitting. Carina and Rob were very warm when we arrived there. We felt very welcome at their place every time. In my experience, some of the nicest people I've met are through animals and this was not exception. 

We had just arrived, and they had home baked cookies. The best thing in the world to start a house sitting. 

Riley and Mina are very gentle; they love to cuddle. Once they know you, they will relax. If you are working on the computer or watching TV they will be just there beside you. They like to lay on the grass to get some good sun time. That's perfect; I joined them, and it felt good. 

Carina and Rob have a beautiful family, with two wonderful princesses and a prince. It's a very comfortable space. They are amazing people. Again, thank you for sharing your home with us! 🙏🏽

Karen
What a charming housesit! I stayed for 11 days and had a wonderful time with Sundance, Dewey, and Simon! The farm is nice and peaceful, lots of space, cows on the adjoining property, a great break from city life! Karen's house had everything I needed for a relaxed and cozy stay. She also was very welcoming, responsive, and gave detailed instructions as well as extra contacts if I needed them. 

The animals were simple to take care of and I loved spending time with them. Sundance got used to me bringing her treats. She also let me brush her and chat with her. The cats spent a lot of time outside, but when indoors, they were super affectionate. I didn't have any issues getting them to come in at night. 

I would happily sit for Karen again and recommend this sit. 😁

Kim
I sat for Kim and her family for two weeks while they were away. Kim made the home perfectly guest-ready. I met with her and her family beforehand and they walked me through the details of staying in the home, making sure that I would be comfortable. Kim left thorough and easy-to-follow details for taking care of the cats, and prepared water canisters to take care of the plants as well. Now for the cats - what sweet animals! Oh my. Studio is this burly tomcat who just loves affection - he loves to cuddle, play with string, and spend time outside. And he comes back in because he loves affection. Jewels is the older cat, and what a sweet lady. We bonded when I was meditating and she came onto my lap, and after that, she was my buddy, looking for pets and affection. Then there was foster cat Mitsy, who day by day got more brave in coming out of her shell, and enjoyed being brushed and being on my yoga mat. All of the cats were incredibly sweet and friendly, and it was a joy to spend time with them. Kim’s home is in a great location, close to the University District with good coffee, groceries, and the neighborhood is nice and quiet. I had a lovely time sitting for Kim and her family, and recommend to anyone looking to spend time in the area.

Natasha
A great housesit with a wonderful dog and hens.  Tasha and Dan welcomed us warmly to their home, despite a stressful journey with a cancelled flight due to poor weather conditions. They kindly collected us from the train station and rearranged their departure plans to suit. Tasha and Dan explained everything about the house and all instructions regarding Penny and the hens.  Their routine/food were discussed and a very comprehensive/useful guide available. 
Penny was full of character, a very gentle dog and very affectionate. She loved her short walks, especially at the beach and was always well behaved. The hens were easy to care for, loved eating any leftovers and produced beautiful eggs daily. 
Tasha and Dan’s  home was ideally located, close to a small hamlet with a great pub/restaurant, St. Agnes is nearby with a lovely beach and some nice restaurants. Our evenings were spent with Penny relaxing in Tasha and Dan’s lovely home. We appreciated the trust they placed  in us to care for their home, Penny and the chooks. 
A highly recommended sit!

We had a great time hanging out with Cilla, she might possibly be the cutest dog we have looked after. Micki was an absolute legend, super friendly and very welcoming!

Aimee
I had a wonderful stay with Mr Boy, Spud and Kya! Spud and in particular Kya were friendly upon my arrival and Mr Boy waited in the wings watching from afar until he was ready. Aimee has a lovely home and is a friendly and welcoming host who made me feel at home during my stay. It was super easy communicating with Aimee. 
It was great being able to use the bicycle to get to the beach and around town. (For any future sitters - I found it easy to navigate the roads and didn’t feel that drivers were impatient or threatening) 
I highly recommend Aimee to future sitters and hope I get the opportunity to return!
