Helen
Helen & Greg's home is in such a beautiful location and I thoroughly enjoyed taking care of Beau. He is such a beautiful and smart dog and was THE best company a girl could ask for! We both loved going for daily (& sometimes even twice daily!) beach or lake walks. He certainly made my job easy. There's plenty to do in the area - I even went skydiving just down the road! The drive into Newcastle only takes about 15-20 minutes but I found it so nice to be away the hustle and bustle. Blacksmiths beach is far quieter and more relaxing. Thanks for such a wonderful opportunity!

Luna, Milo and Lili were a pleasure to look after. Valentine was easy to communicate with and a very thoughtful and hospitable host.

The house is very charming and comfortable to stay in, with beautiful surrounding countryside and views. A very enjoyable and relaxing time had by all.

Coming back home from Gran Canaria was quite hard, because leaving Tommy and Mikey really broke our heart. These two 16 years old ginger brothers are great companions, possibly more than humans, and they made us feel loved through the whole stay, sleeping with us, chilling on the sofa, following us through all the different parts of the house, as we were changing our "work station" to follow the sun and the light and to avoid the wind, every day. We will miss them very much: from Tommy chatting with us close to the dining table, to Mikey looking for his brother and calling out loud through all the house, from both of them chilling in the sunlight in the afternoon to their happy cheering "hello, you're home again" whenever we came back home from shopping.
Thank you for sharing your time with us and good luck for your future adventures, guys.

Thank you, Sylvia and family. We enjoyed spending time with your 5 fluffy companions with very different personalities. 

There is great local transportation for those without a car, and Baden central is a short bus ride away. It was easy to feel at home and it was homely. We had a fantastic time also visiting the local pools which we can recommend highly, as well as local walks as you are bordering on rural. This really suits digital nomads we think as the office is very well set out.

Each cat had a very different personality. We found it worked well to have one of us work in the office with the door closed so Maggie could get space from Anton who doesn't like her very much. She would suit with my husband and enjoy his company. Anton loves his play time so we made games and had him chase his cat toy to tire him out. Tilly was our son's favourite as she would sleep with him and was cuddly. Lotte loves affection very much and to play. Henry starts out as shy but with time and quiet energy he became our best friend and would purr away on the sofa each night. Any cat lover would really enjoy this sit. Thanks again Sylvia.

This was our first pet sitting experience on TrustedHousesitters and it was perfection! Rocky is the sweetest, good boy ever. He's affectionate, gentle, walks nicely on a leash, and has a personality that you just can't resist. We enjoyed our walks with him around Tacoma, as well as just hanging with him in the charming, and fully-fenced backyard area.

Ashton's house is so well stocked and immaculately organized. She provides you with everything you need for a comfortable stay and very nicely detailed instructions. Ashton was quick to respond to any of our questions, which made us feel at ease. We hope she will choose us to pet sit again soon, since we already miss Rocky! Such a delightful experience.
