This was Anne's first time using this site to find housesitters. I'm so happy she decided to let me and Antonio take care of her very low maintenance dog, Lady. The small village her beautiful home is located in is truly inspiring and breathtaking. Countless walks, great weather, lovely neighbours and close to gorgeous coastline and mountains. Couldn't have asked for a better sit for this time of year in this cosy corner of southern Spain. Thank you Anne! Wish you all the best on future trips!
Coco is the most wonderful, lovable, curious, companion with eyes that melt your heart. He is well behaved and knows exactly how to go about his business in the mornings. Coco was a perfect blend of playful and knows when it's downtime too. Too make it all even more special, Cocos home is beautiful with the most stunning views all round. I found peace and tranquility, food for my soul. Nature walks for miles, with donkeys, horses, cows all there to greet you, although I think, if Coco had his way he would want to play with them too. Coco would sit so quietly and just watch them. Special moments. Thank you Aine, for affording me cherished memories to take back with me to South Africa. Unforgettable.
Absolutely gorgeous location, home & atmosphere with two lovely Huskys. I had an amazing time at Malinda’s!
Staying with Piko was amazing. He is a really lovely and well behaved dog, the worst part of our stay was saying goodbye. He was always up for cuddles and playing, but also let us relax and work whenever we wanted. Hande was really helpful, and her place is great. Also her neighbor offered us help if we needed it! Moreover, the area was really quiet but with all the necessary things and not so far from the city center. Hope to see Piko again!
What a relaxing and joyful couple of weeks. Thank you so much! Stacey and Andy’s home is in a hiker’s paradise. Located in the Chilterns, there are dozens of beautiful footpaths in any direction, possibly hundreds more a short drive way. (The AllTrails app worked great for our daily adventure.) Two great pubs and a convenience store in walking distance - with a lovely market town just a few minutes away. The home is welcoming, lived-in and comfortable, and well equipped with a big cooks kitchen! The guest bedroom is comfortable with an ensuite bathroom. Corky is simply the best little dog we’ve ever cared for. Sweet and affectionate, yet easy, without being needy or timid. Plus, a great hiking buddy! He can go for hours, and is comfortable to carry if you DO go too far. It was so hard to leave him behind when we finished our time! The kitties are funny and engaging without being any real trouble; the adult cat, Digby, was a cool customer: never demanding or intrusive, yet always appreciative when you show him attention. The chickens are easy, funny, and reliable egg producers, and the goats are hilarious and fun to take care of. So thankful for our time in this home!
Helen and Ian were great hosts, they made us feel welcome and at ease in their home. Spike and Bugsy their two dogs were fun to care for. The dogs required two walks a day which was easy to do in such a lovely place.
