Annette
Annette was a great host. She even had a warm and filling meal ready for my arrival. Information and communication was always clear and helpful and I thoroughly enjoyed looking after both the cats. The accommodation was really comfortable and the location really peaceful. Thanks Annette.

Kristina
Kristina and her family were warm and welcoming. She even went above and beyond and picked me up from the airport. The guide that she left in the TrustedHousesitters app was more than ample with information on the house and things to do in the area. Kristina was also great about responding to questions during the housesit.

 This is a great sit for someone that loves to go for long walks with dogs. The area is filled with trails and lots of hills. The dogs love to walk. We did 1 to 4 miles daily and even explored some drivable woods trails like Woodland park trail. 

 The house is beautiful, and the neighborhood was very quiet. The few neighbors that I interacted with on walks were extremely friendly. I would housesit for this family again in a heartbeat. I highly recommend this house if you would like to explore more of Lake Oswego and hang with some very sweet pups.

Carol
I enjoyed meeting Carol, sharing conversation about different places around the country, and appreciated the dinner at the Pizza place behind her home.  Her home is very lovely, clean, and comfortable with lots of trees behind the home.  Poops, the cat, was so easy to care for and loves her time outside on the patio.  I am grateful to have had this opportunity.

Brooke
I really enjoyed my time house sitting for Saoirse, she was an absolute joy! Saoirse is a sweet and playful cat. We spent many cozy evenings cuddled up on the couch while watching TV. Brooke's attention to detail and excellent communication made this house sit a breeze. Her comprehensive guide about the house and caring for Saoirse was really helpful and thoughtful. I felt completely at ease knowing I had all the necessary information and could care for both the house and Saoirse. The house is very clean, has a great vibe, and is within walking distance to amenities, shops, and attractions. This sit was a rejuvenating and pleasant experience.  House sitting for Saoirse made my Thanksgiving that much more enjoyable.
