It was going to be a long sit - almost 40 days - and I had never left Nadim for that long. Also, I felt that a couple would be able to manage better with mutual support in a lovely yet small town in Andalucia, Spain. The moment Edith and Richard from Montreal and I met in a video interview, I knew right away they were the ones who would be the best caretakers of my best feline friend and my new apartment. It was in the cards - I got a four-card straight - in aces! Communication was effortless and something I looked forward to. I checked in a few times during the first week to make sure they had everything they needed, and they sent an occasional milestone photograph or video. For example, the day Richard was able to gently brush Nadim without a scratch or hiss - just purrfect contentment! The apartment was spotless when I came back, and they had checked with me the day before if I'd like to have some light supper on the evening I got back. Richard made a beautiful Thai-style coconut soup with fresh cuttle fish and vegetables. Edith had gathered some beautiful wildflowers on their final hike and had them displayed in the kitchen. A new toilet seat had arrived and Richard installed it perfectly. Having agreed to spend one extra night allowed us to visit, get to know each other, and enjoy each other's company. That was probably the highlight of the experience for me - getting to meet these wonderful Canadians with whom I shared more than a few sensibilities spanning economics, politics and music! Book them in advance because they will be in high demand after their relatively recent entrance into Trusted Housesiiters. Thanks so much, Edith and Richard, for taking such good care of Nadim, and for following your hunches, instincts and interests by enjoying Lanjarón and its environs. Know that you'll always have an open invitation to visit, whether to house sit or just relax!

How many ways can you say "wonderful?" Joelle was an absolute DREAM of a house/petsitter for our place. It's a big property, with a large vegetable garden that needed watering, garden beds requiring the same, and a dozen chickens watched over by a very persnickity English Shepherd who expected lots of attention and twice-daily walks around the property. The house is big too, and a real challenge to have clean all at once. She managed everything with exquisite excellence. The house was gleaming when we returned, everything clean and in its place. Not only had everything outdoors been watered as needed, but she went so far as to WEED a patch of squash plants that I had no expectation of seeing tended. The chickens were fat and happy, and she went the extra mile to CLEAN OUT THE COOP before I returned, even though I had told her I'd do it when I got back. She also tended to an ailing chicken with her own medicinal supplies. Joelle went above and beyond in every category, but most importantly, with our sensitive, loving, exercise-craving pup. Joelle figured out places locally to take our heavily-furred girl into various streams for cooling-off jaunts, and indulged her with super-long walks that our girl really loved. We could tell from the almost daily pictures that Joelle sent us how deeply relaxed and happy Tessa was -- hugged and cuddled and doted on while we were away. We've never seen her look happier. None of this mentions what a bright and cheerful spirit Joelle is -- we spent a day with her before the sit began, and a day after to ease our re-entry, and it was a complete delight to be around her, share our home with her, and get to know her. She was a dream to communicate with throughout our connection with her. If Joelle applies to sit for you, say YES. You could not have a better experience with another sitter.

Linnea
Malcolm is such a delightful kitty with a big personality! He brought us lots of laughter with his hilarious antics and we quickly grew very fond of him! Playing with him is a blast, especially when he chases after his laser pen mouse or pounces on dangle toys and bouncy balls. If you're lucky, you might get a cuddle and a few cute little nose kisses from him but on the whole he prefers to do his own thing and is content sitting nearby keeping you company whilst working or watching tv. 

Thanks to Linnea's excellent care and routine, Malcolm is an independent and self-sufficient kitty so taking care of him is straightforward. We felt at home straight away in Linnea’s cosy and beautiful apartment and the location was unbeatable - right in the centre of KL close to all the best restaurants and cafes. 

Linnea is a lovely person and we felt very comfortable communicating with her. When poor Malcolm got ill with his constipation, we were able to quickly arrange vet visits and make treatment decisions efficiently together. We had Malcolm on the mend quickly, avoiding a potentially more serious problem developing! 

We would absolutely love to return to spend time with Malcolm again, it’s been a pleasure :)

Sopheap and Seth's house has a great happy family vibe.  I very much enjoyed meeting them and their dog Bella was a joy to sit for. She's always ready to play or snuggle with you while watching Netflix.

Such a blast hanging with Bruiser and Bronx! Highly recommend this sit for anyone who get's the chance. I hope to come back and visit them again, walking the Beltline with them became my favorite thing in the world.

Cameron and I had a lovely time staying in Lizzie and Mitch’s apartment and looking after Tex. The apartment is bright, clean and has all the amenities we needed. It’s walking distance to Elsternwick high street which has plenty of bars and shops, and a slightly longer walk takes you to the beach. We absolutely adored Tex - he’s a pleasure to look after! He’s a big softie and loves lots of cuddles. He requires a couple of walks a day and then will curl up in his bed or on the sofa and snore! 😂 We would recommend this house sit to others and would love to stay again.

Marta
We would highly recommend this house stay ☺️✨

Marta was wonderful to work with, she was clear with her communication and easy to reach for anything we needed. She also recommended the best pizza place for dinner! 

The apartment was left tidy and comfortable for our stay. The location is great for exploring Brussels. 

Mina was a beautiful natured cat. She is very sweet and easy to look after 🐱 

We wish you both all the best.
