Ron was a great cat to take care of! He loved to play and followed me around the flat :) The flat is beautiful and super convenient for exploring the city centre. I felt safe and comfortable. Highly recommend :)

My family and our dog spent a week with Molly, Coco and Nala, three dogs with distinctive characters but two things in common - not a bad bone in their body and no attachment issues whatsoever.  Within a very short time with them, they will approach you and let you know they are ready to be yours. They are all very affectionate with Coco being a sofa snuggler, Molly an old lady with sparks of spirit and adorable puppy Nala that barely left our side and made sure to do rounds all dogs and humans and check on everybody. Molly and Coco needed no walking, just snuggles, and despite (or because?) their age, they were a pleasure to be around and I hope my dog ages as well as these two. Nala, the 6 months old baby, was wrapped in blankets and rocked to sleep by my two kids, but also a very keen runner and explorer. On the walks, she kept looking out for Prince and sticking close by and in the house she would always be near. Very easy dogs to connect with and to grow fond of very quickly. 

The house is a lovely, comfortable family home and the whole family that we were lucky to meet are very friendly and welcoming. The bed in the master bedroom was really huge and so comfortable. The instructions for looking after their home and dogs were very clear and Liz was only a text away if I needed anything. 

We had a mixed weather whilst there but found the dog friendly beach well worth half an hour journey. Very spacious, takes a good 20mins to reach the water and dogs allowed all year round. We spent time on the sand dunes too and only occasionally would meet other dogs. Even in showery weather, it was a lovely walk and not too dirty as there was more sand and grass than mud. Nala travelled well in the footwell and we could find free parking. I would definitely recommend sitting for Liz and hope to see them again in future. Thanks for trusting us :)

Cathrin & Thomas
Cathrin, Thomas, Julian, Jana and their two dogs Robin and Bella are a lovely veeery friendly family. From the first minute of our arrival to our travel back home, they made sure that we were very well taken care of, felt comfortable and had everything we needed. 
We spent a few delicious home-cooked meals together, and became friends. 
They are living in a cosy house with a very warm atmosphere, spacious and nicely decorated in pastel colors, with many lovely comfortable places to sit end enjoy the stay. 
The pantry is bursting of healthy food and ingredients that we could use for cooking. 
There are beautiful walks in the neighborhood and a short car ride away, as well as the dog park with training facilities that the dogs are super excited about and love to play. 
Bella is a sensitive, gentle, delicate and very intelligent dog. Robin is a very energetic, loveable Golden Retriever, who could play with his ball all day long. They understand commands well and know a few tricks. 
It was a pleasure all-around. 
We unfortunately were a bit unlucky with the weather, so we will love to come back to do all the nice day trips to Bodensee!

SARA
I really enjoyed my week at Sara’s place looking after Rexi and Jojo. They are super friendly and love to be around you at home. Everything was super easy/straight forward, and Sara’s place is clean, comfortable and has everything you need. The flat is in a great location with easy access to the tube. Would definitely stay and look after the boys again!

I can’t express how much we loved this sit from beginning to end.

Pepo is a very special dog, the King of his castle, but so sweet and friendly. He had us charmed within seconds of meeting him, you can’t help but fall in love! 

Igor and Tommaso are the most wonderful, warm couple and very soon we felt like we had known them a lot longer than just a few hours! They are kind, generous and fun to be around and they were eager to share their favourite tips for our visit to Vienna. 

The apartment is ideally located very close to the city centre, maybe 20 minutes, very convenient from the airport, you can easily access public transport or use the bikes that Igor and Tommaso kindly lend. 

To tell the truth, we struggled to leave the house every time because we didn’t want to leave Pepo. We were so sad on our last morning to have to say goodbye. 

We would highly recommend this family and this sit to anyone and we already cannot wait to return.

Lesley
In every way this housesitting assignment was outstanding. Lesley's house is stunning, right on the beach at Bracklesham Bay, beautifully designed and furnished.  Watching the waves and the ever-changing vista across to the Isle of Wight was mesmerizing. Walking from the seaside garden directly on to the beach to walk or swim was a dream come true. And if that wasn't enough, we had the very best companions we could have wished for. Bailey and Poppet were so much fun and so endearing. They loved cuddles and snuggling at every opportunity,  always ready for a run on the beach, at the nearby park or along the many wonderful coastal paths. 

Thank you for the warm welcome Lesley, for trusting us with your gorgeous dogs and for making dreams come true!
