Journey and Dave spent three weeks at our home taking care of our cats and we were so lucky to have them! From the very first interaction they were kind and considerate and put us totally at ease. They arrived the day before we left and we showed them around our house and holiday cottage and did a walkthrough of our routine. Journey took notes and was so attentive. They were accommodating and flexible with all of our requests. Throughout our trip Journey sent updates and lovely pictures and videos of the girls. We have two senior cats with some health issues and often their routine needs to be altered day to day depending on their behaviour. Journey was great at communicating any issues with me and incorporating my suggestions. Both my senior girls were happy and healthy when we returned. Journey and our kitten Smokey seemed to really bond. Journey spent time playing with Smokey to keep her entertained and drain her endless kitten energy. Our houses and garden were in perfect condition when we returned. Dave offered to help in the garden and we gave him free rein. No surprise that we came back to a garden that looked better than when we left! Dave made us an amazing beef stew for our return and it was so lovely not to have to cook dinner. From start to finish both Journey and Dave went above and beyond. There is a real sense of love and care to everything they do. I can’t express how fortunate we felt to be able to visit my family for three weeks knowing that our home and cats were in the best hands. I would absolutely recommend Journey and Dave and would love to have them back to sit for us again!

Marla and Chad were amazing. My dog was given such special attention that she has raised the barr for me. Walks at sunset on the beach. Golf cart rides. Chloe my dog especially liked chasing the ball at the tennis court that Chad served. I got lots of videos. My house was left so tidy and clean
I hope I get an opportunity to have them back.

We really enjoyed sitting for Stacey and Adam! They were so warm and welcoming, not to mention sharing a delicious dinner with us the evening prior to the sit. We felt very much at home and loved meeting baby Elsie. 
There home was spacious, well equipped and located close to lots of country walking tracks which we loved, despite the rain! Best of all, Jet was such a gorgeous girl… so affectionate, well trained and  easy to look after! She was great in the car when we took her further afield for a big walk. We would definitely recommend this sit to others and would be happy to sit again. Thank you so much Stacey and Adam.

A great experience looking after Nala. A beautiful location and very relaxing looking at the hares, ducks and young deer that appeared in the garden. Nala was affectionate and once she got to know us better very happy to spend time with us.

I can not imagine more loving doggies than Zuzu, Ziggy & Gracie. We truly enjoyed each others company. I am happy that Deborah gave me this opportunity to care for the sweetest dogs I have ever met. 
Gulfport is charming as well and I enjoyed a bike ride to town as well as walks with the dogs to the nearby nature preserve. An all around stellar experience!

Oh Ms Trixie! How can I even put into words what a delightful little soul you are? Trixie is Trixie, and by that I mean this was the first time I met someone with the darling mix of personality traits this girl has. Trixie adores spending her mornings meditating to the sound of birds flying by her window, but once the afternoon arrives, she turns into a bouncy and magical little creature who loves to embark on adventures with her little mouse around the apartment. It has truly been difficult to go days without our little head butts and kitchen dates, words truly can’t describe how much love she has to give and how meaningful her precious little signs of affection are. It goes without saying I will never look at spinach the same, it truly doesn’t taste as scrumptious if not being shared with a cat. Thank you Yuliya for your wonderful hospitality, your trust, and your heartfelt kindness! It was so much fun keeping in touch with you! And thank you for letting me witness what a charming girl Ms Trixie is, I miss her very much and truly hope we get to create new memories together.
