Sharryn
Sharryn was an extremely friendly and welcoming host.  We had a quick meet and greet on the day of her departure when she gave all the necessary information for me to care for her furbabies and attend to the everyday running of her home."The Girls" (Tabitha, Thelma and Louise) were just a pleasure to look after.  They were very undemanding - during the day they did their own thing having access to an outside catrun 24/7 with quite a bit of snoozing thrown in as cats do (with a little bit more for Tabitha as she is 13) - which gave me the opportunity to explore a very interesting city.  Then in the evening they provided great company on the lounge as we watched T.V. especially Louise who just loves a tummy rub!Overall this was a really great pet and housesit experience with very comfortable accommodation provided, a destination with lots to see and do and most of all three delightful furbabies to care for.  Hopefully an opportunity will arise again in the future for me to catch up with Sharryn and "the girls".    Marg

Charming pets, in a charming home, in a charming city! This sit will stand as one of my top TH stays ever. 

Stanley and Pepper are truly a delight. For most of the day, you will find either pet cuddling close, or providing writing prompts. The walks around the block with Stanley were awesome, because Pepper escorted as we greeted the neighbors. He was always looking out for us and honestly, it looked like something from a Disney movie. 

Most pets have to warm up to the camera I use for photos, but Stanley and Pepper were always up for a pose. The pets were so well behaved that I didn't believe Adrienne when she insisted they had never been trained. 

Then, there is the home. Adrienne and Keith did a fabulous job of designing and personalizing their space. If you love color and maximalist design, you will feel right at home. If you don't, you will still be impressed! 

Thanks so much Adrienne and Keith for allowing me to stay at your lovely abode to care for Stanley and Pepper. The joy and pleasure was all mine.

Really nice house sit in a beautiful house, in a great location. Very warm welcome from Bev, Larry and Teddy dog. Everything was ready for my sit, and Bev showed me around the house, including the detailed instructions she left for feeding, grooming Teddy, and running the house. Walked a lovely circuit across the fields and lanes with Larry and Teddy, Teddy being very good on the lead, and showed how much he enjoys his walks. Excellent contact for any problems whe Bev and Larry were away. Highly recommend this sit.

I enjoyed the best time with Opal and Max. These sweet pups are incredibly loving and we bonded immediately. There was a lot of rain during my visit, but we managed a couple of walks around the neighborhood and they ran around the backyard a lot getting plenty of exercise.
Leann was very kind and she left a welcome guide with instructions. She was available via text to answer any questions and I provided updates. This was important because both pups take medications administered with their food. 

Leann’s home was meticulous and well-appointed. Amenities were ample. The lovely backyard allowed Max and Opal to access via their doggie door. Opal could play tug-of-war all day if you let her! We had fun. Max is high energy too and gives the best kisses in the world. They are pure love.
I highly recommend this sit. Thanks, Leann.
